You can have a look at the rice paddy farming land near Udon Thani.

one thing I noticed there the woman especially when the weather is hot thai girls like hot food or spicy as they say if you are eating in Thai food cafe point at the chili and say nit noi which means little bit or not to spicy or all you will taste is pain.
Thai girls & hot chilies go together around food so insist on nit noi to play it safe order plain white rice or milk better still both as they take the sting out of the chilli.
when you have had enough of the rice fields and culture and finished your book your next stop will likely be Bangkok.
When your finished there you can go to the local train station - a tiny, ancient affair on the tracks between Udon Thani and Khon Kaen, and board the "express" train to Bangkok. Beware! Express and Rapid all seem to mean slow here!
