Thailand gets under your skin and invades all your senses in the most delightful way.
The Land of Smiles will make you smile, inside and out.
The Bangkok skyline offers endless Insta worthy shots, eye candy indeed, viewed quietly from a rooftop, disconnected from the energy and sensory extravaganza of life on the streets. The hooting traffic, buzzing Tuk Tuks, and chattering merchants are the symphony of the large cities of Thailand.
Neon signs, golden temples, brightly patterned silks, and orange clad monks create the vibrant colour palette. The sweet and spicy aromas from restaurants and the roadside vendors mingle with the scents from the flower market, the hot tar on the road and the fragrant incense in the temples, this is the “nose” of Thailand.
The flip side of the high energy cities is the absolute tranquility of the rural areas and wellness centres.
A boat trip through the mangroves, where birds call, crabs scuttle and fishermen cast their lines gracefully and full of hope, patiently repeating the motion until they have what they need. Speaking above a whisper in this serene place of work feels offensive. The greens and earthy tones of the countryside fade into obscurity as sunset paints the sky in vibrant pinks and moody purples before the world goes black and the stars light up the night. Warm air embraces your skin and the frogs, cicadas and crickets are the backing track to the night.
A spa experience in Thailand is the word nurture in action. Gentle soothing voices, the echo of a gong lingers on the air, an immersion in the warm waters of a mineral bath and even your bones are relaxed.
The islands offer the energy of the city, the tranquility of the countryside and the allure of the ocean. Salty air and reassuring waves dancing to their own rhythm and they splash the sand and kiss the shore, never missing a beat.
