Capital of the Issan world.

Udon Thani is my home away from home.

If there were a capital city for Issan people it would be Udon Thani. Nestled 524km from KrungThep (Bangkok) and just couple hours drive from Laos, Udon Thani sits in a South East Asian melting pot of my parents' favorite cultures; Thai and Lao. Most importantly, however, my Thai grandma, "Yai Dom" and an assortment of uncles, aunts and cousins live here as well. My first trip to Udon was in October of 2005.
