Geocache Description:

In the heart of Ban Mo, north of Chiang Mai

Hi all Geocachers

As it is not that easy to find a good hiding place here in Thailand, you just need to be a little inventive.
Therefore we made a special place just for this cache!

The cache is hidden in a typical Thai estate or village called Ban Mo, which belongs to the Amphur Mae Rim, about 20 Km to the north of Chiang Mai. Traveller on trips to Fang or Thaton are just passing through, so we would like to invite you for a short stop. By finding the cache you may wander around our house and getting a great view over the green fields in direction to San Kamphaeng and Doi Saket from our back yard.

To access the cache you do not need to enter any private ground in any way, even so you may get know to our dogs, (don't worry, they are loud but not dangerous at all!). Please, when find the cache's home, knock on the door first. It might be, that somebody is home (found a snake skin when I did maintenance the last time).

Contents at beginning:
Logbook, pencil and sharpener (pls do not remove)
Two wooden Chinese luck symbols
White jade lucky cat
Green jade lucky wheel
Manekineko (Japanese lucky cat)
Chinese gold zodiac, Tiger (real gold!)

As those are all lucky symbols please trade any other such symbol if possible - thanks!

Note on cache maintenance: I am living in Switzerland but I am spending as much time as possible in Thailand. If there should be maintenance needed when I am not present, my brother in law, who is a local (and lives directly next to the cache), will be able to help out. So if you note the need of maintenance please contact me by email. I will arrange the further steps.
