Hours in Chiang Mai

During my life in Chiang Mai I was able to find, since the beginning, an incredible apartment located in a condo in the north side of the city.
The apartment was at floor number seven at ‘SilverSand Condo’ with an eight meter long window that allowed seeing all the view to Doi Suthep.
Actually the whole wall was a glass!

Inside the apartment, there was also a kind of pool filled with water that made the ambient really magic. I just felt in love with that.
There was just basic furniture so I started to buy something in order to make a dress for the apartment.
I placed cotton batik on to the walls, silk scarf along the table and cabinets, a nice bed cover, curtains, and during the last year also a small bookcase and a piece of furniture for the TV set.
I printed 30×45 cm some copies of my favorite’s photos to hang to the walls,
I filled the poll with some red golden fish and tried also to grow orchids, but with no great success because the temperature of the room during the day was just a nightmare.
The whole feature was designed without think a second to the temperature and to the greenhouse effect of such glass wall with just a small window and no other way to move fresh air inside.
Of course I had also air conditioner but you can not just keep it open 24/h a day.
That was the main problem there.
Beside that, as I said, the view and the ambient was just magic. I lived 4 years there and it miss me so much.
