Currently in Mae Sai guesthouse, and as I said, it's not as cozy as the one in Mae Sod. I felt it was dirty? So I went to extreme measures, by laying the towels over the bed, slept on it, get another towel as blanket for my legs, and my jacket as blanket from torso up! And, I was dirty enough not to bathe after a whole day of travelling!

Woke up around 7am in the morning, changed and got out for breakfast! Mae Sai is really different from Mae Sod. It's much more bustling here in Mae Sai, with alot of roadside stalls, and also local markets (a.k.a. Pasar Malam in Singapore). Walked around and bought quite alot of things! Had breakfast in the market and it was reaaaaaally good! Had 2 servings for breakfast: Youtiao + soya milk, and kway teow soup! I tell you, their kway teow soup here is really different from that of Singapore's! It's just super addictive, and you will keep wanting to have more! (that's for me, because i'm such a glutton!) The youtiao is also different, because its crispy on the outside, soft inside. Unlike Singapore's one, it's all hard and chewy.

Walked around in the market for a couple of hours, and we decided to head to the temple! Had to climb about 200 steps (or more!) before we reach the temple, and I say, its the best experience ever! It's only in the movies or tv show, that I see a long climb before a sacred place is reached. As I climbed up, as expected I was panting but the moment I reach the top, it was just an awesome and breathtaking view! Apart for the majestic statue of Buddhas and deities, the view of Burma and Thailand was just indescribable! It just makes me wanna migrate to this place even more! After which took a walk downhill - barefooted. Just wanna experienced how its like, and a couple of times I almost slipped and fall because the road's slippery! But alls good!

Walked down to another temple and stayed there for quite some time! Took a few photos, before walking barefooted downhill again! Walked around the marketplace for the next few hours, and bought back to the guesthouse dinner! Had 2 servings of dinner to be exact - one at the roadside stall, one was when we packet back! Sat outside the guesthouse, which had such a good atmosphere (apart from the mozzies!)! Realised that lizards could jump (yes they can, all to catch their meals - mozzies!), and in that instance, I find them adorable. Lol! Took out the uke and played a few songs - Hey Soul Sister, I'm Yours and When You Say Nothing At All. Really falling in love with sucha lifestyle, and its really reluctant on my part to leave Thailand, because it seemed like sucha short stay! :( Wanna extenddddddd~

So on the way to Mae Sai, 2 strangers praised me:
#1. Bus conductor: Praised that I looked beautiful
#2. Routine police check in Mae Sai: Praised I have a beautiful smile

HAHA! Omg so shyyyyyyy~ First time, I have strangers praising me! Okay I should stop being such a thickskinned person already! Really don't know what to blog about today, so thats about it! Gonna wake up early tmr and do more walking and sightseeing!

xoxo darlings! <3
