| Not the most delicious, but possibly the most intriguing breakfast of my trip. Provided by a woman who worked at my homestay. She was always there cleaning and I worried about her hours and pay :/ |
My first stop of the day was a museum filled with Thai historical artifacts. My favorite part was the inlaid mother-of-pearl. I learned that different Asian cultures each have their own way of making inlaid mother-of-pearl!
 |
| Thai aesthetic is very grand and ornate, and always includes gold. |
 |
| elephant tail-hair decorations 🥺 |
 |
| I wanted so badly to press the button... |
 |
| pretty |

| pretty and giant |

| sweet and sour veggies for lunch yummm |
 |
| I really really appreciated this woman's soft-serve tattoo |
I spent the afternoon doing some self-care, including a wax (not pictured), a pedicure (pictured below), and a massage (not pictured).
 |
| the pedicurist scraped about two pounds of dead skin off my feet 😃 |
 |
| she also took before-and-after photos to document the dramatic transformation |
 |
| 🥺 |
My final stop of the day was a contemporary art center set up like a big mall, with lots of different kinds of art on display, including some local student art. It was clearly a hip place to be hanging out!
 |
| On the way back to my homestay, my cab driver left me in the car while he went into a gas station. Weird. |
