The Khong Chiam region is still largely unaffected by tourism and, for those willing to explore it, offers spectacular scenery and the promise of peaceful days spent well away from the noise and chaos of the urban environment. With its waterfalls, cliffs and rock paintings, Pha Taem is the kind of place you simply never tire of exploring.

Are you ready for the trip of a lifetime? Travelling in an auto rickshaw will make you feel Bangkok, the hyperactive capital, buzz with life. Next step: the south of Thailand, which is even more charming… Bays, coves, bungalows on deserted beaches, clear water and colourful corals, underwater caves and rocks springing from the sea. Your journey to Thailand will allow you to experience the flavour of salty water, diving and blissful idleness.You will continue your journey north to Chiang Mai, where you will learn so much: there are so many cooking classes and massage courses to choose from. Later, you will take one of the most beautiful roads in the north, Chiang Maia Mae Hong Son, a journey brave travellers will take on two wheels. Between discovering misty, jungle-covered hillsides and villages nestled deep in splendid valleys: your stay in Thailand will be almost supernaturally beautiful.

Khao Sok is a destination to take advantage of if you are a fan of sports travel. Canoeing, rafting, and trekking are all activities that can be done in this national park in Southern Thailand. As for me, I chose a canoe trip down the river, for the opportunity to check out the majestic rocky peaks, even through the fog and wet forest, knowing that Khao Sok jungle is one of the oldest tropical rain forests in the world. It was here in this national park that I had the chance to try my hand at rafting for the first time, a really fun activity that I strongly recommend. And in these mountains you can see the largest flower in the world, the rafflesia, if you're lucky (which I haven't been). If you have time, go for a walk up to the edge of the Lake of Rachaprapha (it is better to go there with a guide), It's a spectacular sight. It is possible to observe many animal species there, particularly gibbons. Khao Sokis an easy and perfect getaway for me when I want to escape the heat of Phuket's beaches, not too far from there.
