It’s our favourite festival of the year – Loy Krathong! It’s a ceremony where Thais come together near bodies of water to pay their respects to the Goddess of Water, Phra Mae Khongkha, by floating their Krathongs. Loy means “to float” and krathong is a small vessel, made of leaves and natural materials. More recently, Loy Krathong has come to symbolise a fresh start for many Thai people. Releasing the krathong is like letting go of the past and floating away misfortune, ready for the end of the year.

This is our second Loy Krathong in Thailand and we were absolutely blown away again and overwhelmed! Surin put on a huge spectacle with lights, music, market stalls and lots of food! We’re already looking forward to celebrating again next year 😁
