It's with a heavy heart that I tell you followers... I've failed on an incredible scale. For the past two days I've planned to go to Pai just to get some sleep. As possibly the most bohemian ex-pat hideaway its notoriety amongst Thai-bound backpackers is astounding. Set on the river the simple bungalow accommodation are refreshing if not slightly noisy. Despite this, there is a growing club scene with everyone converging on a different club each night. Unfortunately I swapped the Reggae bars of Chiang Mai for the ones in Pai. Staying there til 4 or 5 in the morning is near compulsary. Taking all into account... I think I've slept about 12 hours in the past 5 days (give or take a few cheeky bus naps). Despite this I'm still having the time of my life, me and my schvoogies rented mopeds and started our own biker gang around Pai; visiting the 2 ft waterfalls and too hot hot springs - how adventurous. The scenery in Pai is stunning and you can quite literally drive for hours and not get bored. Motorcycle hire is an amazing way to see the area but you have to be careful as there are hardly any road rules and bus/lorry drivers are notorious for taking doses of ampetamines. Despite this I've survived and am the better for it. No stories of moped reach arounds to report for which I'm grateful. Still haven't shaved... still drinking everyday... still living the life. Shout out to my hombres
