Today we had our first Thai cooking class at an organic farm a few miles outside the city! We absolutely loved it and had a great day! First we had breakfast at our guesthouse outside, and then we were picked up by Max (our thai cooking instructor)! After picking up a few more people, we drove out to a local market where we learned about Thai ingredients and saw some pretty interesting things. (Kyle also picked up some local Thai whiskey at Max's suggestion!) Then we proceeded to the farm which was beautiful and peaceful in the middle of nowhere. We got to walk around and see what was grown and try a few things out. Next up was cooking....we made our own curry paste, chicken curry dishes, soups, stir fry, papaya salad, mango sticky rice, and pad thai/big noodles. Food was amazing and we made everything from scratch. After we were done cooking, we sat down to eat outside with everyone and then headed back home!

Next stop....Chiang Dao in northern Thailand. We'll be staying in bungalows, mountain biking, caving, and hiking through a national park!
