The worst part of having too aggressive a travel itinerary is that you always find yourself saying goodbye too soon to people and places you just fell in love with. So this is my farewell to Pai, a tiny little tourist town in Northern Thailand which I saw almost nothing of in my two days here. Had I stayed longer, I could have lived out some amazing life-changing stories not suitable for sharing with posterity. But as it is, I'll just miss the crazy cool people I got to share two days with in this quaint little traveler's Disneyland.

What's next on my itinerary? Thanks to some really poor last-minute planning, I get to spend two full days in transit moving from Pai to Beijing. Here are the great times I've got lined up for myself:
- 2/12 - Take the overnight train to Bangkok
- 2/13 - One day of site-seeing in Bangkok
- 2/14 at 2am - Fly out of Thailand
- 2/14 at 9am - Land in Seoul, Korea for a day of site-seeing
- 2/14 at 9pm - Catch my next flight
- 2/14 at 10pm - Land in Beijing and spend the next month in China, the country now famous for burning as much coal as the rest of the world combined.
