Arrived safe and sound last night and stumbled across a lovely hostel. Am sharing a dorm with Tammy, 19 from South Korea who was so happy to have a room mate after being by herself for 2 days. We are meeting up tonight for dinner and might go on a tour tomorrow - kayaking and elephant trekking. Just chilling out in the city today which is absolutely gorgeous. More like a town, really relaxed, very cheap and right on the river. Will probably chill here for a few days and then might be meeting up with some English guys I met in Nha Trang. Will get the boat to the Thai border and then out to Chang Mai and maybe Pai. Haven't got any real plans but will probably just stick to Northern Thailand rather than going out to the islands and rushing back to Bangkok. Will spend at least 4 days in Chang Mai as treks are normally 3 days long and apparently the city is really nice too.
Off to buy some more shorts now and then going to hire a bicycle and just bobble about for the day.
Lots of love, Chloe xxxx
