Chiangmai - Songkarn Fest

Sawad dee jao, the word "jao" very often use here in the northern part of Thailand instead of using "kub" and "ka". Me and my girlfriend have a chance to visit Chiangmai during a Songkarn fest, the festival start from mid April (12th-15th) every year.

Me and my girlfriend decided to take a train to Chiangmai (still think if it was a good decision!!), a train was delayed for almost 3 hours and by the time we reached Chiangmai it was almost 1am in the morning. Well i guess that is a good experiences though. Driving to Chiangmai from Bangkok is another way to travel and i will love to try that though BUT not in this festival season, I'm pretty sure it will be jam alllll...ll the way to Chiangmai, and driving to Chiangmai should take about 8-10 hours driving....yeah i know is such a long way but worth to give it a try.

Chiangmai people are friendly (well most of them), they speak very slow and always end they sentence with the word "jao" and i find that very unique and so attractive.

"wai pa kun mai jao" see you later in a northern style....hahaha
