Reflections on Thailand

Below recounts our second visit to Thailand that wrapped up just days before the near worldwide travel lockdown during covid-19.

Our first visit to Thailand was fall/winter 2016-17 when we visited Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai up north before crossing over to Laos. That was part of a three month tour of Southeast Asia.

In the fall of 2019 we returned to Thailand to explore more. Below are our hotel choices and some pics of the things we did. We’ve been to Thailand a total of four times. Explore our other three trips too.
