I guess it becomes quite evident how much you enjoy a city when you can't remember how many times you've been. Chiang Mai is like a landing pad of comfort for me in SE Asia, I know what to expect and usually fall into a pretty quick and easy routine. I've always stayed in budget accommodation, shared dorms rooms or the occasional cheap single room, but this trip was different. I was torn between Thailand, Cambodia, and other locations in SE Asia, but being my first trip abroad in a few years, thanks COVID, I chose to play it safe and go to a place I know - really all I was after was a week of relaxation, warm weather and good food - and Chiang Mai easily provides all three. Plus my bonus trip to Pai provided me with a new tattoo, something that has been on my mind for a few years now.
