After having experienced the most beautiful month of my life with my sons, the farewell is fortunately not too hard for me. I like to travel alone and I rarely feel lonely because I regularly meet people. The same applies if I move to another, cheaper, hotel in Bangkok. Andreas from Austria has my…

When we leave Cha-am I am less cheerful than usual because today is the last day that I ride through Thailand on a motorcycle with Pim and Rik. We go to Bangkok to return the bikes and after that we are only together for 2 more days. Tapping on the boring 2 lane highway…

Awakened by the jungle sounds around our log cabin, we set off early again. Today we will reach the coast and all three of us are looking forward to it again. We are already well on our way when we stop at a nice open-air restaurant for a late breakfast. It is located in the middle of…

The days are getting a bit warmer, April is the hottest month in Thailand, which makes us decide to leave early. We are heading towards the coast but the route is too long to drive in one go. We drive most of the day so that we can dive into the sea early tomorrow afternoon. …

Today is the third day we drive south, crossing two National Parks. That sounds nice, we thought too, but in reality it is a boring 2-lane road with a lot of freight traffic. Then it is no fun with 37 degrees. Last night we already reserved the overnight address because we don't want to stay yet…

We drink iced coffee several times a day to cool down and as a pick-me-up in the exhausting heat. After a few hours of wonderful steering, heading south…

Pai is the most northern place in Thailand that I have visited. From now on the journey, along the border with Myanmar, goes south again. It promises to be a beautiful route over mountains and through rainforests. Our next destination, Khun Yuam, is again accessible via only 1 road and it is…

After three days with many impressions in Chiang Mai, I feel like getting back on the bike. Especially because I know what awaits us: the only road from Chiang Mai to Pai is one of the most beautiful in the country. Perfect asphalt, hundreds of turns, climbs and descents through beautiful rainforests….

I'm already half awake and it's already light outside when I see a shadow walking past our bungalow. When I come outside I see that 3 omelettes and sachets of instant coffee have been set out on the terrace. So thoughtful! Together with the bananas from our own garden, a nice breakfast. When we leave the woman…
