Exploring, wandering, cooking and eating done in Chiang Mai, the time had come to head South to Koh Samui. And honestly, after 2 weeks of urban traveling, the hubs and I were beyond ready to spend a full week doing nothing but some serious r&r on the beach. Flying into Koh Samui, our excitement was […]

Cooking in Chiang Mai
One of the things that the hubby and I were most excited about doing while in Chiang Mai was taking a full day cooking class. We both love food and cooking (which you have clearly picked up on by now), and getting to learn how to cook Thai food and bring that skill home with […]
Onwards
It almost felt as if our trip had just begun when it was time to move on from Bangkok and move ahead on our journey, heading north to Chiang Mai. We had an absolutely blissful experience flying Bangkok Airways (think lounge access, fresh tropical fruit on the flight and amazing customer service…nothing like what you […]
Bangkok Flower Market
If you are looking for something a little different to do in Bangkok, and perhaps you have already had your fill of Temples (yes, it is possible to become Templed out), then I have just the thing for you, the flower market. A little further from the main sites, across the river, and seemingly unknown […]
Templing through Thailand
Before the hubs and I left for Thailand, we got a lot of questions about what we were going to do while abroad (aside from eating of course). Temples. Lots and lots of Temples. Thailand is filled with an innumerable amount of Temples (actually there are 40,171 temples to be exact). The Temples are a […]
A Walk in the Park
Today we walked 20 miles. I kid you not. I don’t really know if I am excited or kind of feel like I want to die. I told my husband that if we had only walked a few more miles we could have joked that we were marathoners, right? I mean, can you say that […]
Bangkok: Street Food Paradise
Just as we do for any trip that we are taking, before we left for Thailand, we did a bunch of research on where to eat and what to eat. The hubs and I both come from a long line of “you don’t want to miss a good meal” type of people, and we are […]
Thailand
Well, we are home now, we have finally recovered from our jet-lag, and we are seriously missing Thailand. Missing Thailand? Did I ever think that I would miss Thailand? I’m not completely sure. But after 3 weeks of traveling and experiencing all of the beauties of Thailand, we both feel so blessed and grateful for […]
What I’m Packing
For me, packing light is a major priority. As much as I love the idea of having a different outfit for each day of my travel, multiple pairs of shoes and handbags, and multiple hair tools for different styles; no longer are the days of me lugging around one giant 75 lb suitcase (yes, it […]
What I’m Packing
So I’ve started hinting that the Mr. and I are gearing up for a trip, and with just a few weeks away, I am in major prep mode. Although I am going to still keep our destination a surprise for now, I will tell you that where we are going is requiring some special packing […]
