Roaming Around Thailand: Month #17 Travel Update
Thailand allows visitors a 30-day visa-free stay. Our 17th month of travel was spent using every single one of those days and maybe one extra (oops!). The clock began ticking when our arrival in Thailand was jumpstarted with the craziness of Songkron but we soon fled the city lights so […]
The Asian Beach Polo Championship Hua Hin Thailand

During the past 30 days, only 20 of them were spent on land, yet we somehow managed to roam around four different continents during this past month of travels! These last 30 days were also unique in that overwater travel became our primary means of transportation, as we didn’t use a […]
