After visiting the new Cookies Bangkok store in Thailand, Leafly’s Mikhail Harrison rolled up some GUMBO and ventured into the jungle for a unique experience. Riding an elephant while smoking cannabis is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and Mikhail took full advantage of it. He explains his journey and shares tips for finding a 420-friendly elephant ride in Thailand.
Mikhail Harrison, a Trinidad-born, New Jersey-raised content producer, has been a cannabis advocate and influencer for over a decade. He was in Thailand for the Cookies Bangkok store grand opening and decided to take the opportunity to ride an elephant while smoking cannabis. He enjoyed the beautiful views and the GUMBO in his blunt, and he felt how Alexander the Great might have felt when these majestic creatures were used for war and long journeys centuries ago.
To find a 420-friendly elephant ride in Thailand, ask a local tour guide for the closest elephant rides. Roll your weed beforehand and show smoker’s etiquette with respect to your fellow riders, the elephant, and the driver. You can also ask for a smoke-friendly guide and animal ahead of time. Lastly, bring a little extra bud to tip the workers or to share with fellow tourists who didn’t come as prepared as you.
