We celebrated our first wedding anniversary at the Four Seasons Chiang Mai spa... It's quite the serene getaway spot, in the Mae-rim area to the northwest of the city. The landscaping is divine, the hospitality unbeatable, and we enjoyed a glorious, divine, 4-hour treatment at the spa. The treatment was a "thai body ritual - composed of a Thai herbal steam, herbal garden refresher body scrub, a natural Thai herb wrap, a herbal bath and a Thai massage." I don't think I've ever been as relaxed as I was under the care of a very attentive therapist, who scrubbed me with salts, rubbed me with an herbal balm, and swaddled me in banana leaves before working out my kinks. It was a sublime experience, and a fantastic first anniversary. Thanks for the good wishes, folks. Here's to many more to come!
Across the world from Chicago to Chiang Mai, we are transplanted travelers living amongst the gracious Thai, settling into a 700-year old city in the shadows of Doi Suthep, sampling new cuisines & living an expat's sun-drenched dream... Instruments in hand & our puppy in tow, looking for a yoga sangha to grow, we offer up this window into our lives, knowing we've arrived home though it feels so strange; so we chronicle this process of how we evolve & change...
