I'm here in Chiang Mai!!!!
The flight over was ok, about 1 hour but I slept for nearly all of it.
My arrival in Chiang Maj was a little stressful as there was no one there to pick me up, so I waited and waited and was just about to get in a taxi when a man runs over with a bit of paper, here was my lift half an hour late. There is a particular time zone here thai time where everywhere takes twice as long. However he did turn up and I waited for him to get the car or so I thought. He turned up with a Tuk Tuk which is basically a motorbike with a cart attached. It was an interesting ride I was clutching onto my baggage with dear life will trying not to slide out of the Tuk Tuk. I actually quite enjoyed travelling this way you get to see a lot and the air conditioning is great.
The hostel is nice I'm staying in a 4 bed dorm with 3 other girls who are doing the program. We had the induction an everyone seems very nice. We all went out for a Mexican which was good.
Time for an early night as we offer to the jungle tomorrow.
Lots of Love

Mummy Glad you are there safe and sound. I am sure a Tuk Tuk would work well here! If you can bring one back with an elephant that would be great? Enjoy xxxx
Grumpy Er... No mention of any hat buying!!! Glad you've arrived safe and sound eventually. You're gonna need a good nights sleep for the all that elephant dung you need to shift in the morning :) D xxx
Joan Rolph5 G & P - glad you've arrived ok. We enjoyed a ride in a Tuk Tuk in Bali so can relate to your experience! Looking forward to hearing more about your adventures on the project. XX
