BACKPACKING ADVENTURES

BACKPACKING ADVENTURES

Hi! I’m Michelle and this is my story! I fell in love with traveling and travel photography when I was a kid. In my 20's I started solo backpacking. Later, I was trapped by corporate America and lost track of my passions. Now, in my 40's I've left the corporate life and have rekindled my adventurous spirit. I love backpacking, sound healing, yoga, fitness, and the amazing people I meet around the world! Please follow me for love and inspiration!

The Night Train

Hello again, this time from Chang Mai in Northern Thailand. Yesterday I decided I had had enough of the intense heat, humidity and busy streets of Bangkok, so I bought a ticket on the night train to Chang Mai. We boarded at 7:30 PM and arrived this morning at 8:30. It was a peaceful ride …
