Petite journee relax, on a loue un scooter pour voir les environs de Pai, des paysages magnifiques avec rizieres, montagnes dans la brume...

Cette petite ville est vraiment tres agreable, ca a ete une ville hippie il y a quelques annees, donc on voit un peu partout des expatries qui se sont installes ici!

I love pai.... its a small town north-east of chiang mai, up in the hills with the perfect climate.
We caught the mini van from chiang mai at 8am, its was ment to be a 3hr van ride which turned out being a 5hr van ride as the driver spent a good 1and1/2hrs trying to find everyones hotels to pick them up.
Arriving Pai approx 1pm, as we got ...

The title of this entry can be sung to the melody of Stevie Wonder's "Bye Bye Bye". Not that the two have anything in common but that was the song that came into my head when I started up this entry. I arrived in Pai (pronounced 'bye') about two days ago on a mini-bus from Chiang Mai. It was as long and as curvy a ride as was the trek trip but ...

Pai Town of a thousand puns And Buddhist temples in the sun That rises through the misty morn Scattering clouds, blue skies born Reflecting calm on shallow water That transports every son and daughter Downstream On the silence of the bamboo rafts Away from the market shops and crafts That keep this humble place afloat And lanterns rise with luck...

I don't know how or why, but Pai is the hippest little town ever. How did this place, nestled way up high on the side of a mountain, come to have such a high concentration of cool people? Is it because you have to endure such a gut-wrenching ride to get there? (no actual throw-ups in our mini van on the way up....one casualty and two near-casual...

Pai Salut tout le monde, Nous allons bien, Je ne me souviens pas si je vous l'ai dit mais nous avons visiter le palais a Bangkok. Le lendemain nous avons pris ca mollo. Rejean c'est fait couper les cheveux et nous avons eu un massage thai chacun. Nous en sommes sortie assez courbaturer mais cela a fait quand meme du bien. Le soir nous sommes par...

ok so just a short entry today. we've just checked out of golden hut and our four hour bus back to chiang mai is due in an hour, so just time to say hello and lunch. the next hour will be our last hour in pai and i don't want to go. i'm a few days behind again with the blog so you won't know just how good a time we've had here until i get to wri...

so it's a sombre morning in pai today. i hoped to spend my last day sitting outside a cafe, reading my new used book about a hospital where the workers abuse the patients, and watching the day go by, seeing as it is our last day in pai, but instead it is clouded over by the suggestion that some git might have stolen my phone. i thought i'd lost ...

Ouais ! Finalement nous allons rester a Pai plus longtemps que prévu...Cela fait 3 jours que nous sommes ici, et nous comptons quitter que dans 2 jours. Anouk est partie avec Astride faire du rafting pendant 2 jours, mais moi, faute d'argent et de niveau d'eau trop bas, j'ai décidé de rester a Pai.. Il y a tant de choses à faire içi ! Et j'avais...

Pai is listed in the Lonely Planet as being a relic of the former hippy trail, which during the 1970s had quite a few small villages throughout Asia including Pai, Kashmir, and one in Afghanistan. I'm sure there are more, but as I'm not a hippy or a hippy historian it is to my dismay that I am unable to list them all. Perhaps if you are a hippy ...
