Finding a weekend hotel in Taipei on short notice was not a walk in the park but with a little luck I found a hotel which was right across the street from one of Taipei’s biggest parks and near Taipei 101 but was it worth it???
First Hotel was the first hotel I stayed at for my weekend trip to Taipei but the question is should it be yours?
Every single travel brochure, book, hotel and website advertised or recommended the Chiang Mai Sunday walking street fair and I had requests for Thai handicrafts gifts so naturally I had to check it out…
About 30 minutes outside of Chiang Mai very close to the Long Neck hill tribes is “Monkey School” where monkeys perform tricks such as math, basketball and weight lifting. The tricks were interesting but the treatment of the monkeys…
Most people have only heard about the ring bound, long neck hill tribe women who live in northern Thailand on television or in books but I wanted to meet them in person…
The name ‘Night Safari’ sounded pretty exotic and offered a nice little trip outside the city which this animal lover couldn’t resist but was it worth the trip after all???
Wandering through Lumpini Park is full of surprises and when I saw the south side gym for the first time complete with its hardcore patrons and tire weighted barbell I just had to workout there…
After staying in a mid-range hotel and very nice serviced apartment for my first 2 nights in Chiang Mai, I decided to stay in an older guesthouse which offered rooms from $6USD a night to experience something different…
There are many hotels, hostels and guesthouses to stay at in Chiang Mai but when I was recommended a brand new serviced apartment I couldn’t pass up the opportunity but would it be worth it???
I needed to pre-book a place to stay in Chiang Mai for the night I arrived so rather than choosing a random hotel I took a shot in the dark and asked for a recommendation on the Thaivisa.com forum which I chose hotel in the first response…
