Im in Love
 

Yes thats right folks, i'm in love,.............:adult:,....with the North of Thailand that is . While it looks to me like the Thais also love it,...cause they're trying to "Fuckit" ,:wallbash:,i just want to admire it and leave it alone. I dont want to wrap it all up in plastic for future preservation ( which is the only reason i can attribute to the thais obsession with throwing plastic bags all over their beautiful countryside ).

Truly, the longer i stay here the more i like it. The northern ( Lanna) style of living is so much nicer than the south. The people seem friendlier and their houses reflect a more earthy jungle style of living. Not so much brick and concrete,...lots of timber and jungle.

Ideally if i could, i would spend the high season in Chiang Mai and the low season in Phuket...6 and 6...months that is. heres some pics.

This is the Sunday Night market down the center of the Old City in CM. It is huge and go for a few Km's and spreads left and right wherever it can.


Just another temple in CM. I followed these two all around the grounds and into the temple itself hoping i might bestow my Buddha like charm upon them......however i got bounced by 2 burly security guards in orange robes who kept chanting,....getthefuckouttaherepervert..getthefuc kouttaherepervert.



I had to do a visa run up to Mae Sai on the Burmese border , on the way we came across the Temple of the Revelation with 3 statues of Phra Winston, Babba Jonny and Sri Figjam,.....you figure which is which


We took a very spectacular mountain road the last 30 k's to Mae Sai. We were advised against it by some thai cops who said if anything happened they would be unable to protect us ( we had hired a car for the day, so we were not on the regular tourist trail ) My friends thai GF was shitting herself. At the beginning and end of the mountain rd there is an armed thai army checkpoint. But the views down to Mae Sai were worth the risk.




That is the border in the distance. Mae Sai is very popular with Thai chicks as it is shopping heaven. They can get all kinds of trinkets and foods and bugs to eat at very low prices.



There were tons of people coming and going and a surprising number of lovely looking girls going back and forth.....sorry none of them were in the nude though.


On the Burmese side there is also an even more fevered shopping experience, adding Viagra ciggies and all manner of contrabanned to the shopping cart,...number 85 here also said i could have her 18yo sister for an hour and a half for $10us.



Back in CM and my buddy has gone to Pookit so i am alone ( and llovin it ) so i went for a bike ride up the Mae Sa valley, its a 100k lloop,.... so here a a few reasons why i love this place so much.









Typical northern style house.


On the way back i found this fantastic restaurant that served the best food ( Panang Gai especially,...red curry chicken )


And this was the view as i was eating,.....i just love riding my bike in the countryside and finding gems like this,.......


Further down the road on the way back and who just happened to be taking a sawim,...thats right, Dumbo,...but how many ephelants are in the water ????


Up and down a few hills and you pull up and look back and realise that this area leaves Pattaya for dead.



Until of course you reflect on this view,......sorry but Photofuckit will no doubt delete this pic. it is Na of Pattay soi 13 fame.


Got 1 week left and then its off to Udon Thani for a week,....now i know you said you love Udon Gonzo,...but why,....?????!!!! Its as boring as batshit after a while, not much to do or see there after a few daze. But i am meeting up with an old friend so that will make it a worthwhile experience. God bless ya's all.

Great report and photo's, thanks.

Boring???? Robinson's shopping mall is probably the greatest pick-up joint on the planet, literally hundreds of fine young ladies queueing up to give you their phone numbers. There are 2 soapies there on a par with the high-end places in Ratchada but only 1,500-1,700 a pop (including tip) and all the girls there are keen to hook up after they finish work - gratis too. Laos lane has a choice of over a 100 girls and the short time costs the same as getting an ST room in Pattaya and thats for the room, the girl and the tip, Hitech Night Plaza has a ton of discos, all crammed with with wannabe freelancers who just haven't worked out they could charge for it yet.......

Udon is free pussy heaven with genuine, non hardened Thai chicks and none of the BG bullshit. Admittedly you have to look a little harder to find some 24 hour bars but they're there (as long as you don't mind being the only falang in the place) and you may struggle unless you know a bit of basic Thai but what's not to love?

Great report Mr Samile....I love most places that aren't Pattaya.

Jump on a bike and go for a ride.....bewdiful.:wheelchair:

BTW, what visa are you on? Any hassles at the border?






And did you get 85's phone number?:bath:

Thanks for the great report and foto's. It looks like I should get of my arse and do some traveling. kinhell i've lived here for 3 years and have only seen BKK, Pattaya, and Patong, (lazy cunt)

on the way we came across the Temple of the Revelation with 3 statues of Phra Winston, Babba Jonny and Sri Figjam,.....you figure which is which



I'm obviously the one with the crown:detective:
