Spontaneous Joyride Up Mae Rim District, Chiang Mai After catching a late lunch at Salad Concept, and getting coffee at one of the Wawee Coffees in Nimmanhaemin (which is also littered with a whole lot of other cafes), Ro suddenly suggested that we go to Mae Rim. And before I knew it, off we were. [[MORE]] Mae Rim is around 45 minutes from Chiang Mai. If I were to create an analogy for Filipinos to relate to, it’s sort of how Tagaytay might be to Metro Manila - a nearby mountain escape - but with even less people and establishments. We then headed to Baan Mon Muan, Ro’s favorite spot in Mae Rim, where he goes roughly twice a week when in Chiang Mai. [Ro on the left, Jane on the right] [One of the cozy seating areas at the entrance of Baan Mon Muan] [Quirky design details] [Walkways around the Baan] We hung out for a while, appreciating our surroundings, over tea for me, Heinekens for Jane, and mostly water for Ro. :P [With my accidental host via the Chiang Mai sleeper train, and my accidental “driver” (:P) via my accidental host] …’til dark. It’s nice how the universe works sometimes and conspires to bring people like Hanne and Ro & Jane to me in my travels, who in turn give me a lot of awesome travel experiences I might not have had on my own. Cheers to strangers who don’t stay strangers!Really looking forward to their visit to the Philippines so I can give back to them as well. :) Grateful,Jen Follow my tweets • Find me on Facebook • Sign up for my newsletter • E-mail me
