Mae Sai: From Relaxation to Raging Flood
In the small town of Mae Sai, in the far north of Thailand and across the river from Burma, we spent three weeks — first hiking in the nearby hills, relaxing in the restaurant, drinking coffee and watching the river life. Then one morning we woke up to the river in flood!

One day you’re reading peacefully in your little hut, and the next day you wake up, look out the door, and the river is creeping up the stairs of your hut!
