Thailand: Chiang Mai and beyond

Update from our Elephant conservation volunteer holiday Thailand

I’ve made it to Chiang Mai with that slightly uneasy feeling in my stomach that seems to go hand-in-hand with spending 24 hours in transit, with the long leg of the journey being an overnight flight between Zürich and Bangkok sat between a Metallica rocker and a young couple with a baby on its first time on an aeroplane. But luckily you get that second burst of adrenaline to get you through the rest of the day. When you read this I will be on my way to Ban Na Klang, our hilltribe village base. The forecast for the area is for thunderstorms and I’ll report back with a final on-site update soon, before our Thailand elephant conservation expedition starts in Chiang Mai on Monday.
