I’m leaving on the night train this evening for Chiang Mai, in the northwest of Thailand. Never been up that way before, so I’m excited.
I’ll try to post from there, but can’t promise anything. I’ll likely be in Chiang Mai and surrounding areas for several days or week (though if I really like it, of course, I’ll stay longer).
In the meantime, check out a couple of Bangkok-related Gridskipper posts I’ve made this week — one’s about Saxophone Pub, and the other’s on the Chatuchak Weekend Market.
(And by the way, for those of you who’re into RSS, there’s now a feed available for all of my Gridskipper dispatches.)

Hi! I am going to Chiang Mai next January. Could you e-mail me when you post some new photos? Thanks, “Faith”
Chiang Mai is beautiful! Try and squeeze in a 3-5 day (atleast) jungle trek if you can. You will get to trek through forests, live in tribal villages and interact with immigrants from Burma and Tibet.
