Thailand

About Thailand

There are two main associations about Thailand that spark every mind - majestic temples and pristine beaches. We are yet to explore the latter, but we can say for certain that temples are indeed breathtaking. Country offers a pallet of different options for everyone - from photogenic beaches on small islands, unbeaten tracks winding throughout the rice fields in countrysides to the big and overcrowded touristy cities.

Our Journey

Due to our holidays, we were only able to visit Thailand during summer, meaning we faced harsh weather - monsoons. But up to this point it was not that vast of a problem, as normally this means lighter showers in the afternoon, lasting from 30 minutes up to few hours - other than that, a sunny and overly humid day.

We planned to absorb all different vibes the country has to offer, so by the end of our trip we will have visited big touristy cities, hiked the rural paths of the rice fields and swum at the pristine beaches of small Thai islands.
