Sometimes when I feel tired and heavy, I just want to escape far away.
I want to break my own limits and see if I can travel alone.
So this review was born.

Note: The original text is empty, so the translation is also empty.

This trip was a solo adventure for me, taking place from January 6th to 8th. It was a transformative experience, as I'm not accustomed to traveling or exploring alone, especially within my own country. Naturally, I had concerns about safety, given the increasing anxieties surrounding solo female travel. However, the reality proved to be far less daunting than anticipated. I'm sharing my itinerary to demonstrate that even with limited time, travel is possible (though it may require some resilience, as I tend to be quite hardy). Additionally, solo female travel is achievable, albeit with heightened awareness and precautions.

• Shatter the illusion.

- The challenge of this trip was "If I have to go alone, where is the least scary place to go?" So, the lottery fell on Nan because there are many reviews of Nan from solo female travelers.

• The second challenge was to travel only on weekends without taking too much leave, so we only took half a day off on Friday. We went like working people, but it was a bit tough. We wanted to save leave days, so we had to make some sacrifices.

- The third question is how to get there. There are many choices. I really want to fly because I'm going alone, it takes less time, it's less dangerous, and my mother might scold me less. 555 But with the ticket prices of both airlines, it's deafening. Each trip costs almost two thousand, round trip four thousand. Oh, why not go to Laos or Vietnam? The budget is only that much. But then the heavens smiled upon me. I happened to see the Nakhonchai Air bus stop in Rayong, with a final destination of Nan. So I made a quick decision and closed the issue. Nakhonchai Air, with a ticket price of less than 700, okay, let's go!

• The final concern is accommodation. This is the most important thing to consider, in our opinion, especially if you are planning to travel alone. Safety is paramount. Camping alone is out of the question; it is simply not safe. If you do decide to stay in a room, make sure it is secure and has a lock. We read reviews and found a place called Sudrit art gallery, which is a guesthouse, cafe, and gallery all in one. We highly recommend it.

Okay, I can answer all the questions for this trip. Let's go on an adventure!

- Plan -

Prof. Yen - Traveling from Rayong by Nakhonchai Air, the bus departs at 16:45.

P.

• Get off at Wiang Sa Bus Terminal.

• Descend from Doi Pha Hom Pok before noon and enter the city.

- Check in / Shower and rest - Evening: Eat dinner, walk the walking street, and return to the accommodation. No later than 8 pm!

Ah.

• Visit nine temples - Collect food items on the list.

- Get on the bus back to Rayong.

- Journey -

NCA Gold Class bus departs at 4:45 PM and arrives at 6:30 AM on Saturday.

On the way back, I boarded the bus at Nan Transport Station. I had dinner around 9 pm in Uttaradit and arrived in Rayong at 7 am.

• To reach Doi Pha Hom Pok National Park, take a local bus from Wiang Sa Bus Terminal. Board the Wiang Sa - Na Noi route and inform the conductor of your destination. They will let you know when to disembark.

Following that, there will be vehicles available for hire to ascend the mountain. We shared the cost with a large group of people who were also going up. When it was time to return, we requested the driver's phone number and called him to pick us up.

If we are lucky, we will be able to hitch a ride back down the mountain with someone who lives there.

• After descending from Doi Pha Hom Pok, we took the same bus route to Wiang Sa Bus Station. We then planned to take the Wiang Sa-Nan bus to the city center, but we missed the 12:40 bus. Instead, we shared a taxi with a large group to get to the city.

- In Nan, I wouldn't recommend cycling, as the Phra That Khao Noi temple is located on a hill and is a bit far from the city center.

The journey to Wat Phra That Chae Haeng will surely leave your legs sore, just like climbing the stairs to Phra That Doi Suthep. The temple is quite far, requiring you to cross the Nan River.

Renting a motorbike is a better option for convenience and speed.

However, if you want to experience the leisurely pace of Nan, you can rent a bicycle. However, it is recommended to cycle only within the city center and avoid venturing out to the two aforementioned temples.

**Useful information, such as local bus schedules**

• Accommodation -

Sudrit art gallery evokes a Guesthouse + hostel vibe. It has a limited number of rooms, only 4, with shared bathrooms. The prices are reasonable, and we particularly liked the option of a private room (which we booked).

Price: 350฿

Note: As of October 29, Sudrit is still under renovation. Please follow the updates on the Sudrit page.

Day 1

After boarding the bus, I drifted in and out of sleep throughout the journey, but I slept for the majority of the time.

Personal experience: Nakhonchai Air's seats are more comfortable than those of Bor Khor Sor 999. They are wider and larger.

The translation of "เราเดินทางมาถึง อ.เวียงสาตอน 6.30" is:

We arrived at Wiang Sa district at 6.30 am.

Unfortunately, I arrived just a little too late. The first bus has already left, and I have to wait another round until 7:30.

As soon as the bus arrived, we boarded and secured our seats.

The bus was almost full, with a large number of passengers. I noticed a group of four people who seemed to be friends. I thought to myself that it would be a good idea to share a ride with them.

After a while, a conductor came to collect 40 baht for the fare. The local bus felt like a sweet and refreshing treat.

It's so cold! Let's just relax and enjoy the scenery.

Upon reaching the designated stop, we disembarked and crossed the street to the Government Savings Bank. In the vicinity, there were rental shops for tents and chartered vehicles for ascending the mountain.

Upon arrival, there were a total of 7 members: myself, a group of 4 younger members, and 2 additional younger members who joined us.

We saw the two younger siblings at the Wiang Sa bus station, but we didn't talk to them. When we got off the bus, we smiled at each other.

That's how our friendship began. It's amazing how coincidences happen. As we talked more, we discovered that we both attended the same university. What a small world!

This makes us feel much better. Oh, well, coming alone isn't as lonely as I thought. 55555

This image will be the first one to appear. Great, isn't it?

In the morning, they would go to watch the sunrise at the bend, far away over there.

The neatly arranged blue tents you see belong to the park.

There are 50 large and well-maintained houses available, but advance booking is required.

The dense fog obscured our vision as we ascended, rendering everything invisible.

Wait a moment, and you will see something.

Below, the Nan River can be seen in the distance.

We stayed on top until a little after 10 am.

However, with a keen eye, one could spot a couple carrying backpacks as if they were about to descend.

I approached a person wearing a uniform similar to that of a park ranger and asked for a ride down the mountain.

For fear of not arriving in the city on time

Therefore, it was necessary to bid farewell to the students urgently.

As we drove down from Doi Pha Hom Pok National Park, we met two other students who, coincidentally, were also alumni of our university (during our master's program).

The world is surprisingly round.

We waited for the green bus to Wiang Sa for a very long time, almost an hour.

Fortunately, I had company in the form of two siblings who had also descended from the mountain by car.

By the time the bus arrived, the bus to Wiang Sa had already left. The next bus to Nan city center wouldn't arrive for another hour.

We decided to rent a songthaew to take us into town.

Approximately 80 baht per person, I can't recall the exact amount. However, it saved us hours of time.

Upon arriving in the city, we immediately checked in at the Sudrit Arts Gallery Cafe.

Reviews of this location are scarce. It functions as a guesthouse, gallery, and cafe.

The atmosphere is very artistic and peaceful.

Upon arrival, I walked in feeling confused.

The coordinates of this location are in an alleyway, slightly beyond Wat Huakhuang.

It is possible to walk through from the alley next to the Heuan Hom restaurant, but we didn't dare to walk at first because it was quiet.

However, if you are riding a motorcycle, there is nothing to be afraid of. The destination will be at the very end of the left lane.

Outdoor atmosphere

This is what our room looks like. It has a fan, towels, and a 3-pin plug.

It is very compact, and we like it. It is perfect for people who are afraid of open spaces and do not dare to sleep alone, like us. 5555

The damage cost 350 baht.

After washing my face and eyes for the first time of the day,

I dozed off for a while and woke up in the evening.

Initially, we planned to rent bicycles, but after careful consideration, we realized that cycling up to Phra That Khao Noi would be too strenuous.

He hailed a motorbike taxi, which took him to a motorbike rental shop behind the bus station. He suspected that the taxi driver and the shop owner were in cahoots, with the driver getting a commission.

Car rental fee 250, deposit 1,000.

I was very hungry at noon, but both Khao Soi Ton Nam and Huen Hom restaurants were sold out!

There is nothing left for me to eat.

So I ended up devouring a fried egg with stir-fried basil with gusto.

And here is the appetizer for the city dinner.

This is a must-try after lunch is sold out.

There was a lot of food, but I ate it all. I'm crazy, haha!

This set costs 250 baht.

The following is a translation of the Thai text provided:

After finishing dinner at Huen Hom, we went for a walk to digest our food at the walking street.

On Saturdays, there is a walking street next to Phumin Temple in Nan.

There is also a Khantoke square where you can buy food and sit down to eat. As you can see, it is crowded.

Looking at the time, I was afraid it was getting too late, so I decided to go back to my room. It would be dangerous to stay out any longer.

Upon returning home, I sat down to jot down some notes. However, the drawing on this page was done earlier in the morning while I was waiting for the bus.

One day has passed, and tomorrow we will go to the temple to pray. ^^

Day 2

The next morning, we set our alarm for 5:30 AM, determined to catch the sunrise at Wat Khao Noi.

However, due to the extremely cold weather and the fact that it is still dark, and the temple is located on a mountain, I am concerned that it will be too dark and dangerous to drive up there.

Using this as an excuse, I slept until 6 am.

After finishing, I got up to shower and get dressed, preparing to go out and pay respects to the monks.

We rode a motorbike up to Phra That Khao Noi. The road wasn't too difficult, but it was quite a distance from the city center.

I wouldn't recommend this bike. It's a very long ride.

Upon our arrival, a van had already ascended the mountain. Despite the early hour, the view remained breathtaking.

After returning from the temple, I plan to try the famous porridge in Muang Song.

The translation of the sentence is:

They reviewed it, but when I went to the market by motorbike, it turned out that the shop was closed!

I walked into the market to buy fish to release, but it turned out that the fish were sold out!
Okay, I thought, I don't have to release them. So I rode my motorbike to the Nan River instead. I opened the map and followed it on my motorbike.

Let's continue to Wat Phra That Chae Haeng.

Ride a motorbike along the Nan River, cross the bridge, and continue on the main road for a while. You will see a sign. Follow it.

Returning from Wat Phra That Chae Haeng

I'm about to check out, as it's already past 10 am.

The tunnel was not crowded, so I went in to take some photos and check the points.

Coordinates

Nan National Museum

After checking out, I left the store.

Next, we visited the fourth temple, Wat Hua Khwang.

Continuing with the landmarks of Nan

The fourth temple, Phumin Temple

They say that if you crawl under the belly of the Naga, you will be able to return.

Done.

Painting 'Pu Man Ya Man - Whispering Love to the World'

“My love for you, I would keep it in the water, but I fear it would be cold.”

To be held in the open air.

Fearing the fog of Mei Son Star falling down to cover.

To be placed in the palace courtyard.

I'm afraid that if I put it on, it will fall off.

Therefore, it is kept in the heart of this man.

Let it be, let it be.

"Waking with a start in the middle of the night..."

My stomach is rumbling, I need to refuel.

This morning's meal was eaten before noon, as a precaution against yesterday's experience, when the food ran out very quickly, leaving me hungry.

The beef khao soi was sold out before noon, leaving me devastated. It's my favorite dish! I guess I'll have to settle for chicken khao soi instead.

The Khao Soi here has a clear broth, unlike the thicker version I had in Chiang Mai. It's a matter of personal preference.

Personally, I prefer it thick.

The translation of "พิกัด ข้าวซอยต้นน้ำ" is:

Coordinates of Khao Soi Ton Nam

After a hearty meal, we continued our journey. Our intended destination was Wat Si Phan Ton, but we stumbled upon the City Pillar Shrine instead.

I stopped by the city pillar shrine, and it turned out that the temple behind it was Ming Mueang Temple.

This is the fifth temple.

Next, we visited the sixth temple, Wat Si Phan Ton, which features a golden ordination hall and a naga statue at the entrance. The intricate details and vibrant colors were truly breathtaking.

After visiting Wat Si Phum, we intended to have dessert at Pa Nim's shop. However, it was extremely crowded, and the prices seemed unreasonable in my opinion.

Delicious, 30 baht.

Coordinates: Next to 7-Eleven, Khao Soi Ton Nam

Refueled and ready to go.

This temple is called Wat Phra That Chang Kham, the 7th temple in La Pa.

The eighth temple, Wat Ku Kaew, was not photographed.

This picture was taken at Wat Suan Tal, the last temple.

Completed 9 temples as planned, before 3 pm. 5555555

After paying our respects at the temple, we returned to Sudrit to wait for the bus back to Rayong.

The car leaves at 16.45 as well.

At the restaurant, I noticed people ordering chicken breast salad...

As 4 pm approached, we washed our faces and prepared to wait for the bus at the Nan Bus Terminal, fearing we might miss it.

The motorbike was returned, and the deposit was refunded. I then walked to the bus station to wait for the bus back to Nan. The trip was successfully completed. Hooray!

Our first solo trip has come to an end.

The mother found out about the trip when she was already on the tour bus.

The mother cried out in surprise, but she did not stop him.

I understand that you want me to translate the sentence "รู้ตัวว่าทำให้เป็นห่วง แต่ก็ได้แต่ขอให้แม่ทำใจให้สบาย และทำใจว่าลูกแม่เป็นแบบนี้แหล่ะ" from Thai to English. Here is the translation:

"I know I've caused you worry, but I can only ask you to relax and accept that this is just how I am."

I have kept the tone of voice simple and short, and I have not included any personal pronouns or colloquialisms. I have also supported my claim with evidence from the original text.

I hope this is helpful! Let me know if you have any other questions.

I will try my best to take good care of myself.

Though I embarked on this journey alone, I did not return solitary.
I carried with me newfound warmth and friendships forged along the way.

This trip, we were lucky to meet many good friends along the way, which made it a very happy experience.

The translation of the provided text is:

Traveling alone can be scary, but it's not as scary as you might think. You just have to be more careful than usual.

Be cautious and avoid unnecessary risks (as life is inherently risky).

Is it lonely to travel alone? The answer is yes, it is lonely.

There used to be someone who went everywhere with me, pointing out things and showing me new sights.

Eating alone with no company. Imagine the scene of me eating appetizers on a khantoke table all by myself. = =

Does traveling alone have any advantages?

We have spent a lot of time alone, a lot.

Our plan is self-determined and flexible, allowing for ongoing adjustments.

We will have plenty of time to do whatever we want.

Take your time to take photos, or simply relax and enjoy the moment. There's no need to rush.

While traveling solo has its own unique charm, having a companion on your journey can undoubtedly enhance the experience.

It's not as bad as I thought.

One thing that makes me feel happy is that we have broken through our own limitations.

We can now travel alone.

Note: Traveling solo is not due to heartbreak, but simply a personal desire. 5555
