My Trip Map:

Though I know this is a volunteering trip, I really want to visit other Thai cities than Bangkok.
As a courtesy, my family already planned an itinerary with all the dates and the cities we’re going to visit and they even marked them down on a map that is now posted on the kitchen’s wall.

This is the Map:

I’m going to visit the following cities/islands in this order:

(A) Bangkok

(B) Phucket

(C) Nan

(D) Songkhla

(E) Chumphon

(F)  Prachuap Khiri Khan

I have already been to the first 3 cities.

The first one was Phuket.
Oh my God!!! What an amazing city! I spent three entire days alone with Kan relaxing and sunbathing at the beach. The weather was ideal, 33 °C approximately every day. The water was also warm, but it was so crystal clear that you could see your feet while taking a bath. The landscape was dreamy! I’m really looking forward to going again before my trip ends.

Then, with the whole family I visited Nan. We spent there three days also, but this was completely the opposite of Phuket. This city was in the middle of the countryside. It had some beaches though, but the aim of the visit was not going to beaches again, but to discover how people lived in the countryside due to the fact that I only knew how people lived in Bangkok. The experience was good though, people were very kind and I saw landscapes I’ve never seen before.

And last but not least, we all went to Songkhla. This is the province where Kan was born and lived until the age of 13. So they wanted me to visit her “homeland”. It was a really nice place, the took me to the house where they used to live, and we visited Kan’s grandparents that live there that as the rest of the family, were extremely kind.

I hope the other cities are as nice as these were!
