Sumatra

Sumatra has always been a destination on my list. This fall seems to be a good time to make it happen.

Melaka to Bukit Tinggi

Umphang - Mae Hong Son

Tee Lor Su Waterfall is the largest in Thailand and very popular among Thais (although not a major destination for foreigners). I’ve been always interested in checking it out. The opportunity eventually comes and I decided to extend the trip to Mae Hong Son as well.

Central Asia

Bangkok is indeed a transportation hub for Asia. There are even direct flights to a few Central Asian countries. Although April is not the best time to visit Central Asia (especially for the Pamirs), I still decided to take the Thai New Year holiday period to visit this “forgotten” part of the planet.
