Yes, it's a gruelling road trip and itinerary... I skipped Phuket, and spend an extra night in Chiangmai. The 3 days there was something like this:
Day 1 hired tuk-tuk (that 3 wheels 'taxi' or songthaew (meaning "2 benches", that are found behind those pick-ups/minibus) to go around town and 3 different cottage industries - umbrella, lacquerware and silverware. (Not sure these cottage industries still there or popular, as only done it during my very 1st time in Chiangmai which was many, many years ago.)
Day 2 take a day-tour package: elephant park, ride elephant along jungle trek, rafting on a bamboo raft, visit a hill tribe village, and visit a waterfall.
Day 3 go up Doi Suthep... bus back to BKK at night.
Hard to explain what is travelling to someone who do not like to travel... it is not really a vaction or holiday to splurge yourself - of course this would be nice if we can afford to, but anyone who truly likes to 'travel' will anyhow do so as long as it is within his/her budget.
Definitely I not just like, but love traveling. I always have solo one, even sometimes my close friends ask for joining, without doubt I'll reject their request. I must agree with u, travel is "not really a vaction or holiday to splurge yourself", but more, it's a lifelong memories, it's about the people u meet, the things u do, the taste u ates, the feeling u have, the thought sudden came to ur minds to redefine life, and of coz and more.Day 1 hired tuk-tuk (that 3 wheels 'taxi' or songthaew (meaning "2 benches", that are found behind those pick-ups/minibus) to go around town and 3 different cottage industries - umbrella, lacquerware and silverware.
