An enriching eight week solo adventure.
The brief
My client wanted to make the most of an eight-week sabbatical from his accountancy firm with a solo trip to Southeast Asia. He was looking to get off the beaten track, connect with local communities, and balance adventure with indulgent stays in some of the region’s finest hotels. The extensive itinerary spanned Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam and Cambodia, blending cultural immersion with natural beauty.
Trip Highlights
Staying at a luxury mountain resort surrounded by rice fields and waterfalls and lush valleys.
Trekking through bamboo forests and farmlands, visiting local families in remote Thai villages.
Drifting down the Mae Tang River on a bamboo raft, surrounded by serene countryside.
Cruising the coastal roads of Indonesia’s Bukit Peninsula in a vintage open-top VW Kübelwagen.
Enjoying a cliffside picnic with panoramic views of white sands and the Pacific Ocean.
