"My guide in Chiang Mai was Kenny and as I spent more time with him than the other guides, I feel that I came away a little bit of a friend as well. Seeing the temples with him left me with an understanding of Buddhism that I would not have had otherwise. He took me to a real Thai disco and I taught him ten pin bowling. We had a great time doing both. Thank you again and please thank each of the guides for me." -- William M. (London)
