Episode 23: World Trip I (pt. 14) – Laos, Thailand, Myanmar

  • Summary

  • In this episode of "Sleepless in Singapore," I recount my first trip through Southeast Asia, covering Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Myanmar. The journey begins with a memorable flight to Luang Prabang, Laos, on a small prop plane with a unique laminated boarding pass. The landscapes below are a breathtaking mix of green mountains and the brown flow of the Mekong River. Once in Luang Prabang, I explore the local market, savoring street food, and visit the stunning Luang Prabang waterfalls, capturing their beauty through my camera lens despite some technical challenges. Moving on to Chiang Mai, Thailand, I reunite with Karen, a friend met earlier in Cambodia, and we embark on various adventures, including visiting an elephant sanctuary and making onsen eggs in hot springs. The journey continues to Chiang Rai, with its winding roads and unique charm, before heading to Myanmar. In Myanmar, we delve into the rich cultural tapestry, visiting ancient pagodas in Bagan and experiencing local customs like chewing betel nut. Each destination offers a distinct flavor of Southeast Asia, creating a tapestry of vivid memories and immersive experiences.
