Jeremy finally finished his internship and had a bit of time to travel, so he and Dane met us in Pai. One of things Jackie and Jeremy were eager to do was ride an elephant. It started off in a none-too-dull way. Our mahout (elephant trainer) insisted Jackie mount the elephant by climbing up its trunk. Before we could protest, he hoisted her...

The 100km journey up into the hills of Northern Thailand and the town of Pai took 4 hours and 20 minutes - it was perhaps the windiest road ever. Our bus passed not one, not two, but three crashed pick-up trucks on the way- the last one was upside down halway down a ravine- didn't really inspire confidence! But our driver seemed to know what he ...

hello again! so Pai is by far my favourite place I've been thus far. Its really really relaxed here, the people are soooo nice. Part of the reason I think is that Pai is a popular vacation spot for Thais. The majority of tourists are not white but Thais from other parts of the country. There are many crowds but theyre somehow quieter and more re...

so, with this motorbike, we have been spending our days driving around, trying to get in all that we can in the area. Great views! We drove around the hillsides, found a canyon with cool ridges, and followed a river in Pai. Unfortunatly, we found that there is a peice of lint in our lenz which is leaving a smudge mark in the pictures. We hope to...

Teacher's real name is Buddhasak but everyone just calls him Teacher. I accidentally discovered his name when another monk at Doi Suthep let it slip during a conversation. His name means "the potency of Buddha," and if you ask me, that's a pretty weighty burden to put on a kid. Considering he's a monk, though, he has done a good job living up to...

We spent three nights and two days in Pai, pronounced BYE, near the border with Burma. It is a fun place to hang out. There are many Farangs (foreigners) here. Lots of music venues with live music. I believe I mentioned in my last post that they are having the third annual Reggae and Ska festival there next week. The town is small and sits in a ...

So what a trip getting here to Pai.... We woke up bright and early on the 5th hoping to arrive in the early afternnon 160 odd KM North-West of Chaingmai. We knew the road would be through the mountains so we preparred to take breaks and we gave ourselves a few extra hours to arrive at our theoretical time of 4 hours. This was exciting for us bec...

pai is a quiet mountain town north near the border of laos. its known for its food, music(lots of live music), hot springs, hiking, and relaxing atmosphere. we arrived just as the low season was beginning so there were very few tourists and we got a great little teak cabin on the pai river. we spent 5 nites just relaxing, yoging, and hot springi...

We arrived in Pai two days ago and I know it hasn't been long since we did one of these bloggs but we've done loads already. When we arrived we stayed in some really nice bungalows for about 3 pounds a night. They had there own bathrooms hot water and lovely big glass patio doors that looked out on to our verander. we had been out investigating ...

I spent last week in Pai, pronounced "Byee" a small town about three hours away from Chiang Mai. The road to Pai made truly grateful that I do not get motion sick. The three hour trip involves, 300 degree turns, winding roads, hairpin turns, wandering cattle and steep upward drives. I suppose the upside of all this is that there was no way I cou...
