We’re at the airport after a week in Chiang Mai. CM was not without its highlights, after all, how many times in my life will I get to take a mud bath with an elephant?? (see photos). But the sad fact about Chiang Mai is, we spent around a week ... Read more >

Was Koh Lanta relaxing? yes! Was the water warm, calm and perfect for swimming? why yes! Was the sand white and powdery? yes, but more like beige. Was the water a transparent greenish sparkling turquoise just like on the postcards? no, not really, but ... Read more >

but I’ll get to cooking eventually.
First let’s talk about the plane ride from Bali to Bangkok. Did you know that an advertised 3.5 hour flight could really be 4.5 hours with time change? Seems to me that Asia Air needs ... Read more >

Bangkok rocks. I could have stayed there at least a week. Its huge and has lots to do and see. It will all have to wait for another day though as we are at the airport en route to Koh Lanta, an island in the south.

We've been here 4 hours and have spent most of it hiking around the city (very walkable) and eating whatever we please. So far we are pleasantly surprised, as we didnt quite know what to expect after the pit of environmental disaster otherwise known ... Read more >

Bali is done! The summary of Bali is, that we were at least 20 years too late getting there. I know that if I (someone who hardly ever reads fiction and even more seldomly reads popular contemporary fiction) read "Eat, Pray, Love", then 98% of the people ... Read more >

We're out of Ubud and up in the mountains at a not-nearly-as-luxurious hotel, but the good news is, we're finally in nature, which is what we do best.
Today we got somewhat lost in a winding trail up and down and in and out of jungle and fields filled ... Read more >

Ace and I wake up early every morning. At first we were waking up at 2 or 3am, but today we slept in until 6! I think we're getting adjusted to the time change now. We went for an early walk through Ubud, past the morning market, past the water temple, ... Read more >

Hello from a day in the future (Monday in Oakland, Tuesday here in Bali). The flights over here were fantastic and on some of the biggest planes Ive ever seen (I guess to fly across the entire Pacific, they have to make it worthwhile). We had a layover ... Read more >
