Day 10: i made it 🥳
Yesterday was the perfect ending to the loop. I enjoyed the farm — as you can see on my host’s Facebook xD I learned how to make papaya salad, Som Tum. (The homestay: บ้านสวนกางโต้ง จอมทอง Ban Suan Kang Tong)
Thai people are just so incredibly kind and helpful.
Today.. not…

Day 8: Mountains 1 - finnish girl 0
Started at 7. This was the toughest day this far. I cycled so slowly and stopped in many restaurants. At one stop, locals handed me a corn, saying “present for you.” I must’ve looked that tired :'D
At another, I met a Karen woman named Irin who spoke really good…

Day 7: Following the river 🫠 - Mae Sariang
Started early at 6. Locals also start early, mornings are always alive here, with people already working in the fields and shops.
Also the dogs are awake early.. they wait on the road, looking like they might eat this tourist for breakfast, and then start barking and sometimes chasing me.…

Day 6: Pleasant hills and scenic route - Khun Yuam
Yesterday I had a few beers and went to sleep late (at 22 😅). Mae Hong Son was a nice city, and I met some nice people and played some pool.
Woke up at 5:30. Super tired and raining. Almost went back to bed.
Had some coffee, already feeling like…

Day 5: Cycling mountains is easy compared to Vipassana meditation - Mae Hong Son
Wow, just finished my first three days of Vipassana. One day I’ll do the full 10 days, for sure.
Too hungry to write much but one thing I learned: it’s not for fixing knee pain 😅 If before Vipassana I had one sore knee, now I’ve got two. Luckily, they…

Day 4: Change of plans for the next few days - Wat Pa Tam Wua Forest Monastery
Woke up early again and my knee hurts again.
Cycled about 20 km.Then I saw a sign: Buddhist Monastery that welcomes visitors.
Surely a sign😅
I googled and turned out they welcome walk-in visitors (minimum 2 nights). The rules: arrive before 4 pm., wakeup at 5 am, ~6 hours of…

Day 3: Cute dogs and steep hills - Ban Jabo Village
I left Pai early at 6.30. I was a bit worried about my knee, but it turned out to be fine. Yesterday’s massage, yoga, and chilling did their magic. I also adjusted the cycling position which helped.
The first 25 kilometers was up.. in total 1 000 meters of elevation…

I started at 8:30. At first, there was quite a bit of traffic — luckily, the route went straight the whole…

Kudo's to you, wish you loads of fun and success. Thailand is a great country to cycle! I find your average speed however a little " astonishing" looking at the climbs on the route. But I guess there was a pick-up involved. These steep climbs make it killing sometimes
