THINGS TO REMEMBER
Before we leave.
Book the coast early
January is popular, so we should lock in cancellable coastal rooms once our international flights are confirmed.
Pack for both ends
Warm layers for Ulaanbaatar; light clothes, temple outfits, sun protection and a dry bag for Thailand.
Booking order
International flights first, then domestic flights, rooms, ferries and finally the tours we really want.
Don’t over-plan it
Keep the 10% cushion and a little empty space. Weather and energy can decide some of the beach days.
