So my 63 yr old mother is coming to visit next May for 3 weeks. She's always been an adventurer and independent traveler, only 3 yrs ago she went off backpacking in India by herself for a month. And in her life time has traveled the world, particularly N. Africa.
Now though she's had arthritis in her hip creeping up on her for the past few years, and has also put on a good bit of weight. Up to around 65kg I think. So she's older, and her mobility is not what it was. She also retired last year, and with pension complications, is suddenly on about 1/3 of what she was (and should be).
I've been here for 5 years and lived in the North, central, Isan, and Bangkok, so know my way around a fair bit. But would certainly appreciate any ideas on places or tours to go on.
The itinerary will probably be something like a few days in Koh Chang, maybe a week in the North, stopping off on the way back in Sukhothai, maybe up to Khao Yai for a weekend, and probably a week in Bangkok where I'll be doing some work and she'll be happy to relax around our pool and do some day trips - I'm thinking small package tours to Ayuthaya, floating market, Kanachanburi.
So any advice or ideas, particularly for trips and things around Chiang Mai, it's been 3 years since I moved from there, but I think she'll be into some courses they have up there - cooking, meditation etc.
I'll try to come up with a list of all the places we want to go, and plan to see, and hopefully some people can help with ideas.
Thanks all.
TMC.
