Elephants on the Street

One thing that I like here in Thailand, is that you’ll never miss an opportunity to meet a real elephant. They will just be walking around town with their guides and caretakers.

You then get a chance to feed them by buying the 20 baht food that the caretakers sell. On the other hand, it’s also quite sad hearing the stories of these Elephants and their caretakers. You see the Elephants need hundred of kilos of food everyday and we are not sure if they are truly nourished properly. The caretakers had to feed themselves too as well as the elephants.

I love to travel to see new places, faces, eat different food, hear different languages and dialect and simply to experience CHANGE from my normal everday life! Enjoy the journey with me as we take a walk from my neighborhood to flying wherever God allows us to go.
