You might or might have not travelled to Thailand before, but have you engaged in meaningful travel? Connect with the land on a wholesome experience that stimulates your body and soul and makes you feel satisfied by the end of your travel. Here are some things to try next time.
A Digital Detox
If you’re constantly on the phone or laptop, browsing through social media and working on the go, it is time to let go and enjoy a digital detox. You will find destinations encouraging you to disconnect digitally and connect spiritually, such as the mountains and forests in Chiang Mai. You can try yoga, meditation, hiking, and more surrounded by nature, and retreat to a Chiang Mai hotel the likes of Anantara Chiang Mai Resort to stay the night.
Volunteering
Wildlife conservation, education, and community-building programs are abundantly available in Thailand, where you can feel productive and fulfilled. If you’re in Bangkok, you can go to Wildlife Conservation at the Elephant Rescue and Education Centre to volunteer. Hua Hin has projects to uplift the livelihood of the local community, where you can actively engage in making lives better.
Travel to Learn
All these years, you must have travelled to have fun, and now it is time to travel to learn. You will find hill-tribe communities to trek and discover hidden gems and learn the history and rituals of Thailand. Go down to a fishing point to learn fishing techniques or visit the local farms to learn their agricultural methods. You can even learn about the amazing culinary culture of Thailand to master the art of cooking.
