Welcome to Thailand
A backpacker's dreamIntro
Our 2 months in Thailand surely did not disappoint. From beautiful white sandy beaches and tropical islands in the South of Thailand to a dash of craziness and temple overload in Bangkok City to stunning Waterfalls, National Parks and the most delicious food this country has on offer in the North – Thailand was a true Backpacker’s dream!
Nature is something outside our body, but the mind is within us.
