Hello everyone! We wanted to share with you our South Korea pictures, sorry it took so long. We spent one week in Seoul at the end of October, staying at our friend’s apartment in the heart of the city. It was wonderful staying in an apartment (with a kitchen!!), hanging out with friends and being […]
We love Thai food and cooking, so before we landed in Thailand we knew that we wanted to take a Thai cooking class. Fortunately, Chiang Mai is full of cooking classes so we had many to choose from. We ended up picking Asia Scenic cooking school because some fellow vegetarian travelers, Simon and Erin from […]
On a cloudy morning on the way back from Laos to Chiang Mai, Aurelien and I stopped at the White Temple (Wat Rong Khun) in Chiang Rai (not to be confused with Chiang Mai).

As I (Annalisa) write this we are on a train from PDX to SEA. We are riding through misty forests, full of the colorful fall foliage and on bridges over rivers with houseboats. I am very happy we were able to experience some fall before flying off to hot Dubai. Portland was full of bright […]
