Before returning to Bangkok in order to travel down South, I decided to pay a short visit to the town Pai. Pai is a bit of a hippie town and is a four-hour bus ride up North from Chiang Mai. It seems like a village consisting of travellers on their journey through, wanting to relax for a bit, backpackers who gut stuck here and those who have fallen out of conventional society.
The combination of people results in a very chilled vibe in the city and I could definetely see myself spending more time up here if I didin't have to be back in Bangkok on the next day.
After enduring the seemingly endless trip up the very windy-roads with a crazy driver, I already regretted my decision to come up here for just one night. However, I had a really fun evening, met interesting and fun people. I ran into a group of solo travellers who found each other along the way - so we where seven people from six countries, as I ran into the first other Austrian on my trip. I hung out with them for the day and the most of the night and was happy to have taken the trip when I got home to my little windowless bungalow in the morning hours.
