7 road trips that will show you the best of Thailand

I have been traveling and writing about my experiences for more than 20 years, and I was an editor for Lonely Planet for 10 years. If I had to choose my favorite place to work, it would be a close run thing between Nepal, Bhutan, India and mainland Southeast Asia. In between gigs, you can find me tending to my collection of Indian instruments, Tibetan Buddhist dance masks, Burmese lacqueurware and American guitars.
