Day 7: Pai

---

We fled the city and took a 4 hour shuttle bus journey north-west to Pai. Allegedly, the road from Chaing Mai to Pai is one of the most dangerous in the world; 762 sharp turns up and down hill, we were being thrown all over the place. There were sick bags in front of us for a reason. The mountainous scenery took our minds off the travel sickness though.
We arrived in peaceful little Pai and instantly fell in love. We’ve landed ourselves a luxury hostel called Pai Happy Village, surrounded by beautiful picturesque views. We were planning on staying one or two nights, but hell to that, we’re staying in Pai for at least 5 days. One guy we met is staying at this hostel for a month for just 3000 baht (£68).... we couldn’t believe it. Now we’re outside the madness we can see how expensive Chiang Mai is compared to other areas of Thailand.
We went into the town on the night and ended up white girl wasted, hopped on the bartenders moped and hit the nightlife. We got a free ride home to top it off. We woke up surrounded by Pringles and our own sick which is always a sign of a good night...
We also have a new roomie, Gus the gecko.
