I don’t think I’ve ever gotten worse sleep in my life than in that homestay. The entire night the smoke billowed up between the enormous cracks in the floor and we breathed in the thick stuff the whole night.
We got up in the morning coughing, shook off the tired, and boated down to Muang Noy where we explored for the morning. We then went on a couple hikes to see some nearby waterfalls. Every surface of every rock was covered in some kind of moss or fern.

Eventually we headed back down to Nong Khiaw where we all parted ways and I finally got some decent sleep.
