As new home exchangers, John & Kansinee provided plenty of helpful information by email ahead of travel, to make us feel welcome, and plan our month in Thailand. We flew around the World (Toronto to Bangkok) so stayed several days in Bangkok each way to explore that interesting city - including arrangements with Kansinee’s brother for a private tour in the city - a Highlight! Their home in Udon Thani was a great base for exploring the NE using their car exchange; and then a 1 hour flight to Chiang Mai, an interesting province in NW Thailand. We enjoyed this trip even though we didn’t think we would travel so far after COVID. We’re glad we got to see beautiful Thailand (and Vietnam on our way home). Thanks John & Kansinee.
