After spending 3 nights in Bangkok, where the world was our oyster, we’re flying to the northern Thai city of Chiang Rai for a more off-the-beaten-path experience.
We’re spending two nights in a riverfront jungle compound that’s just a stone’s throw from the neighboring countries of Myanmar and Laos. On the final night we’ll be sleeping under the stars, in a big clear bubble, among a community of beautiful rescue elephants-at one of the top eco resorts on the planet.
The entire experience is another illustration of augmenting our kids’ online schooling with real-world interactions, but it’s particularly special because elephants have always been Brooklyn’s favorite animal. Like, since she was a baby. So we’re excited to see how her first actual encounter affects her appreciation for these incredible creatures.

ABOUT US
We’re the Lockwoods. And we’re traveling the world to experience-up close and in person-all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise be consuming only through textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’re working hard to fund this little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.
