Love the casual, relaxed, yet informative way you guys did this Q&A (it's similar to the one "Sammy and Tommy" did, which I also loved). You guys must have lived a good life and came from great genes to be so well-preserved as I thought you were in your late 20s! The MySpace love story is too cute and one for the history books. :) Ashley, I'm with you on the overpacking. I hate it, but I'm also not capable of being a minimalist traveler. What part of the world will you be going to after SE Asia?

@mikeandashley 8 ай бұрын

Thanks! We’d never done anything like this before, so we were a bit nervous, but are happy with how it came out! You’re so sweet to think we look so young! 🥰 We’ll have to check out Sammy and Tommy’s Q+A also! We don’t have any set plans yet, but we’ll keep you posted when we know more. ☺️

Bangpu Recreation Centre is a place to visit. Located close to Bangkok in Samut Prakan, this recreation centre is a popular seaside hangout where let you feed the seagull and watch the sunset . To go there take BTS sky train to kan kheha station and take taxi or songthaew ( local bus)

@@mikeandashley Indonesia is just so huge and there's so much to see, it's a shame the visa situation seems quite a hassle compared to other countries in the region. I'm planning my own trip atm, hopefully covering North and West Sumatra, Java, Bali and the Komodo Islands, so I love seeing other people's experiences of these beautiful places!

For us, the visa was pretty simple actually. We just applied for the 60-day tourism visa online, and got approved quite quickly. I’m not sure about extensions, though I have heard you can extend for a total stay of up to 6-months. ☺️ We hope you have a lovely trip, and those places sound like a dream, we’ll be back for sure to continue our exploration of Indonesia! So much beauty. 🥰

So many, the Sunday Walking Street is a must! So much good food, handicrafts and vibes. The Night Bazaar and Anusarn Night Market are also a must! There are many temples around, but our favorite is Doi Suthep. It’s about 45 min outside of Chiang Mai, and is easily accessible by taxi or motorbike if you’re comfortable riding one. Other than that, just exploring the walled city and eating as much Khao Soi as possible! 😋😋😋
