South to North Thailand

7 weeks here. I started in the islands in the south. The north of Koh Phangan & Koh Tao. Sunsets melting into the warm, still water, coconuts, diving and stunning lookouts.

My mom joined me halfway and we went to the middle - Khao Sok National Park. Overwater floating bungalows, elephants, and untouched jungle. Then we visited Bangkok and she flew back to Boston. Our relationship deepens with every experience together. We look back with a smile, new memories bringing new feelings.

I continued to the North, living with monks for a week, learning about stillness and visiting the same places from when I was 18 years old on my first gap year.
