Chiang Mai and beyond

Organic cooking class in the hills around Chiang Mai! We learned to cook Pad Thai, red curry with our own hand-ground paste, spicy papaya salad and sticky rice with coconut and pineapple! Anyone wanna come visit...?

Chiang Mai

In case you were wondering, the purpose of the seemingly pointless captions is actually to separate the photos a bit... because I don't have the time right now to figure it out!



Mmmm, coconut milk...



Thai water feature..?!

Welcome to my first ever blog attempt - feel free to roam! The title translates to 'I don't eat meat' in Thai, a key phrase for this trip and something I have to learn wherever I go... Click on the photos to enlarge them.
Photos from Bangkok (we stayed near Patpong, hence the title of blog) first up. This will be rough for awhile as the uploading is so slow, but I hope to make it nice for you soon!
