I’ve officially got one week left in Thailand. Dang that was fast. That means we’re getting down to my last couple posts. I feel like a travel blog wouldn’t be complete without a list of things I’ve missed and things I’m going to miss. So here you go!
Things I’ve missed.
-Pandora
-being a vegetarian
-blending in
-not being so sweaty
-big drinks and free refills
-a relatively bug free existence
-people saying “bless you” after you sneeze
-baked things
-air conditioning
-socks
-English speakers
-not being constantly reminded of my whiteness
-good internet
-Family and friends (you people)
Things I’m going to miss about Thailand.
-the food! So amazing and oh so cheep
-Thai covers of American songs from the Carpenters to Flo Rida
-the rain
-my sweet bike
-my group (the other BYU interns
-the scenery, especially the mountains. I know this sounds weird considering I’m going back to Utah but there’s just something about Thailand mountains.
-Milo and Ovaltine shakes
-monks
-the smells (the good ones like incense and flowers, sewer smells and meat markets not so much)
-people saying “you beautiful” even when my hair makes me look like a 90s drummer and I’m as sweaty as the Rock in fast and the furious 5
-all the great markets
-elephants
-my host family
-7/11’s on every corner
-the kids I teach, seriously some of the coolest kids ever
I'll miss it toooooo! Ah. Can't believe the last week is here.
ReplyDeleteI'm also so sad your adventures in Thailand are coming to an end. I've enjoyed reading about them. I wish you safe travel home. I had to laugh as I read your post. We love BYU. My husband teaches there. What a wonderful place!! Best wishes!!
ReplyDeleteThanks again Carrie! I think I'm going to be keeping the blog up while I'm in Provo. Not near as exciting as Asia but it has its charms, which I'm sure you're well aware of. You're more than welcome to keep reading! All the best!
