India.. the highs and the lows!

Ahh looking back at these is making me miss South America so much! LOOK AT ALL THE COLOURS. I have continued love affair with film right in 2019 and when we decided to voyage around South America for 6 weeks from February there was no question which camera with would be trusty companion. As it turned out as much as I love these I do wish I had brought my digital with me too.. I also realised my lens had developed a kind of fault too which means it misses focus A LOT and there’s nothing more frustrating than thinking you nailed a shot to find out 8 weeks later when the films developed that you did in fact, not.

So.. I'm back! 2 and a half months travelling around south east Asia is over and although I know I'm going to miss the good weather, the cheap food, the endless excitement of meeting and seeing so many news faces everyday, I have to say I am happy to be home. This week has been full of all the mundane back off holiday tasks like washing all your clothes, opening post, catching up on life admin, but also nice things like drinking Yorkshire tea and eating home cooked British food, which we've missed so much. 

As we get ready to leave Chiang Mai tomorrow on the sleeper train back to Bangkok (then heading to the islands) here's a little look back on our second week and everything we got up to. Chiang Mai has been absolutely lovely but I'm ready for some time on the beach and to get out of the city. 

Welcome to the first of my South East Asia travelling posts! Although we technically kicked off our trip in Bangkok, I'm skipping that for the time being as we headed out of the city pretty quick and straight up to Chiang Mai in the north of Thailand.
