The Man with the Plan

Posted by marc on January 23rd, 2010

Num and Weo will drive to CHX at the 25th – Chris and me will share the ride.
Than something like 2 nights CHX. Up to Chiang Rai next – see the White Temple. Than Mae Salong to see why “the lost army” – Kuomintang’s 93rd division who fought under General Chiang Kai Shek’s Army – stopped here and founded the town. Further on towards the Laotian border and down to Luang Prabang with the Slow Boat next.

Winter 06/07 is online

Posted by marc on May 14th, 2007

this took quite a while but i had to much work – now it is online!
i have to admit that there are not a lot of interesting pictures this time but i had only 8 weeks and it was not really a nice trip this time – to short and they killed pai (i still dunno how they did it)!

I was there in march 06 the last time and come back in november 06 and the whole thing went crazy.
millions of thai tourists block the whole village every weekend and over xmas and new year it was like a campground! including a lot of driving the car instead of walking 2 minutes and noise starting at 6 in the morning and bla bla bla – fuck it! Lots of other little things on the side like no party nowhere, 500(!!!) bath entrance to the hot springs (thai pai 20! and my bungalow is only 120!!).

anyhow – if you like take a look at surfdog.de -> wintertravel
