hi everyone! please see i've posted a few photos below from chiang mai and pai. yesterday i ended up renting a motorbike (yikes, glad i got the hang of it...) and rode around pai and the surrounding area. after driving around town to check out the hospital, school, police station etc, i went to a waterfall which was pretty anti-climactic because it's dry season. but the scenery/ride over was nice (with the exception of having little old ladies stopping me in two places to ask me if i want some opium... uhhh, really?) after getting back to town and eating lunch i got back on the bike and rode to a hot spring in the other direction, passing a few elephant camps on the way. the scenery is just amazing. i also saw a lot of little houses and huts where people live- quite different from anywhere else i've ever seen. i sat in a hot spring for the first time, pretty cool! later after dinner, i met up with friends and heard a few bands play in town. really great music scene!! tonight i am leaving for chiang rai, where i plan on spending a few days. all in all everything going well! wishing everyone could see through my eyes... i'll write again soon!
xoxo, lauma (p.s. the thais call me loh-maaah, it means dolphin!)
