I love that mountain photo at the top. Don’t those mountains, in real life, have a presence that humbles humans?

Thanks Megan! One question, how do you feel about how tigers and elephants are treated in Thailand, those open zoos where you can enter a cage with a tiger, or riding an elephant? I would like to write an article about it, I was a visitor myself, but didnt live in Thailand, cannot say if these animals are maltreated behind the scene…what do you think, is that the case?

Well, I’ve heard quite a few mixed reviews on the tiger and elephant encounters. At this point, it seems that they are not being properly cared for, but hopefully that will change in the future. I would also take it on a case-by-case basis when researching each individual organization, when determining if they adequately care for those animals. Hope that helps. Thanks again for checking out the blog. Take care.
