Chiang Mai, Thailand
Chiang Mai is in the northern area of Thailand, filled with mountains, coffee & tea plantations and even its own cuisine! I enjoyed the northern part of Thailand soooo much, there were still tourist but it felt authentic, loving and it was a good balance between country and city. Here some of my favorite moments and places!

So in 2018, I stayed a weekend in Montreal and met this beautiful soul! Our paths were able to cross again when I posted on my instagram story that I was in Chiang Mai (her hometown!)
She picked me up on her moped and stopped at a few of her favorite places.
She is one of the original people that taught me about traveling and some of the resources! :)
Je me souviens

A street in Chiang Mai, I was headed to get a massage :)

At the market
When you go to the market to get your fresh veggies and fruits there will also be these stands selling so many cool mixes and spices.
We made the curry paste from scratch it was such a fun experience, so tasty too!
The best little bakery/ coffee shop! They had tons of healthy gluten free, vegan & organic food options!
It was just around the corner from the hostel, so I went… a lot heheheh!
Just some behind the scenes pictures from exploring
I like how long the plant hangs here, and how the light is coming in
Sak Yant tattoo
Sak means “to [tattoo]”, and yan is Thai for the Sanskrit word yantra. The Sak Yant tattoo is an ancient art derived from Buddhist culture. This sacred practice is believed to bestow magical powers upon the wearer by the Buddhist monk who does the tattooing.
