CHIANG MAI, THAILAND

One of the many smaller waterfalls flowing through Mae Sa, Chiang Mai, Thailand.

It would’ve been my last trek before I would return to the Netherlands for my dad’s 70th birthday. For our dinner the next day, our tour guide created cups and cutlery from the bamboo we found along the way. It would’ve been the perfect birthday gift, if not one of my group members (accidentally?) confiscated my set near the end. Luckily I had one bowl left which made it all the way to my dad. Arriving in The Netherlands was the start of spending about 2 months in Europe. I had been home for only 2 weeks in the previous 7 years so it was about time to stop by.
