Nation University and Farewell Toke Dinner

On our final day in Lampang, our host Dr. Nirund gave a personal tour of Nation University. As an original founder, he was a huge participant in the fundraising and groundbreaking of the first college in the area. And what a beautiful school it is! After fresh coconut milk and birthday cake in his home, we got to cool off a bit in the school's swimming pool. We attended a special farewell dinner in our honor attended by the mayor of Lampang as well as the director of tourism. A wonderful night was finished by lighting and releasing paper lanterns, carrying away any whispered wishes into the sky. We sure will miss our wonderful hosts, and we will be sure to never forget the awesome friends we made in Lampang!
