and we're back!


Sorry to all of those anxiously awaiting our latest posts:) We’ve been on the farm and away from internet access for the past couple of weeks, and then an inconvenient bout of illness struck. Now we are happy to be back in good health and in Hanoi, Vietnam--a city with Wi-fi!

Here’s a recap of our time in Chiang Mai where we enjoyed a couple of days off from the farm:

We stayed at the bed and breakfast that our WWOOF host runs near Chiang Mai University. We enjoyed the cute cafes and walking around the beautiful campus that was literally in our backyard.



While visiting a mountainside temple we ran into hundreds of teenage monks parading to prayer.




We spent one day swinging through the trees on zip lines. Our guides were hilarious and the experience left us wanting to explore some more “outdoorsy” activities!

 
 
Hilary went on a daylong trek through the jungle, rode an elephant, and went white water rafting. Meanwhile, Laura stayed in the city and went to a bookstore.





  

Next stop Chiang Rai for a border run, stay tuned.


Happy Trails,
L & H
