    Solo Travelling in Thailand and Laos 5: Canoeing in Nam Ou River, the Incredible Luang Prabang, Sunsets from Mount Poushi, Immersed in Temples

    In the 5th episode of the podcast series about my trip to Thailand and mostly Laos for all of April is described my last day in the amazing Muang Ngoy that left me with fantastic impressions. I later left and went straight to the amazing Luang Prabang by taking a boat and then a bus. In this episode are described my first 3 days here. Almost 4 hours with a canoe in such a natural landscape in the Nam Ou river in Muang Ngoy was a very relaxing experience, it was me, the water and the steep mountains covered with adorable trees. Luang Prabang is an Unesco World Heritage site because it mixes outstandingly French Colonial architecture and traditional Lao one in a very well preserved environment that smells of old times. Not only it has too many temples compared to its size but they are all energetic, very well maintained and with many novices and monks. This city definitely preserves the traditions at many aspects. It is also where the huge Mekong and the Nam Kha rivers meet and they flow in its two sides. It's just magnificent to stroll around the town and feel its vibes. Also, one highlight is the sunset views from Mount Phousi that is in the centre of the town and its stupa on top can be seen from everywhere.

    Solo Travelling in Thailand and Laos 4: Among Misty Mountains, The Majestic Nong Khiaw, the Picturesque Muang Ngoy and Hiking in the Villages among Ricefields

    In the 4th episode of the podcast series about my trip to Thailand and Laos is described the next  day of my trekking in the mountains of the North of Laos after staying in a tribal village, then my impressions of Nong Khiaw which is southern and the incredible Muang Ngoy where I arrived by boat and I am still there immersed in a totally different life, in a place where electricity only arrived the last 5 years. Hiking in the Nam Ha Protected area was a unique experience among elderly forests, the next day I drove up to the borders with China after passing again from from the Nam Ha in an incredible route and then seeing the nice village of Muang Singh. I was astonished with the beauty of Nong Khiaw built on Nam Ha river with a bridge that offers amazing views and then in an hour boat trip I reached the amazing Muang Ngoy and I hiked for a long distance to witness outstanding natural beauty and visit two villages after passing several times from the one side of a stream to the other.

    In the 2nd episode of the podcast series on my trip to Thailand and Laos is described from the 3rd to the end of 7th day of my stay at the enchanting Chiang Rai where I definitely stayed longer than I expected.  I have visited some amazing places in terms of both natural beauty and human creation. I also went to the what is called “The Far North of Thailand” on the borders with Myanmar and later the same day to the Golden Triangle, where Thailand meets both Myanmar and Laos. I saw the scorching White Temple, the agricultural beauty of Singha Park, the Tham Luang cave where on July some children were trapped in this shocking story, the Chinese Temple with the huge Female Buddha, the Chiang Rai beach, I met and had a small chat with a lady from the Acca tribe, I visited a waterfall in the jungle, I roamed in one of the most famous tea plantations, the Choui Fong, I drove more than 160 klm the last day and visited plenty of other interesting places. In the meantime I also had a health issue that left me no choice than to visit a Thai hospital where I also got an idea on how their health system is working.

    Solo Travelling in Thailand and Laos 1: Bangkok, Khao San Road, Chiang Rai, Blue Temple

    The beginning of the podcast series for my tour of Thailand and Laos. In the first episode I describe my first 4 days in the country of the people who smile a lot. Especially from Bangkok and one and a half day till now in Chiang Rai.  I'm already full of experiences, I enjoyed a drink on the 61st floor of the tower (in Vertigo), I saw the incredible Grand Palace, the Buddha Buddha Temple, P***y Ping Pong (I'll analyze what it is, and it's not just what's heard, ), sunset from the Golden Mountain, the Blue Temple in Chiang Rai and many more.  Apart from the descriptions, I gave some tips as to what to do with entering Thailand in terms of visas, how to save a lot of money when traveling from exchange rates, and which area looks ideal for a traveller.
