There is nothing like a long road trip to make me feel like I am truly exploring an area of the world. This is not always possible as one is traveling the world, but now that we are semi-permanent residents of Thailand, and have a car, we are embracing this way to travel the country. The first road trip we… Read more →
We leave for Phuket on a VIP bus tomorrow night at 11:00 pm. And I am feeling calm. Our bags are not packed. Albeit we have given much away that we have accumulated over the past three months. But, our bags are not packed. And yet, I still feel calm. I have no list written on what we need to… Read more →
Not all of us are looking for the same kind of things when we go to a beach, some of us want quiet solitude, some want good music and parties, some want… well, the list could go on and on because every one has their own desires and thoughts on what makes a beach a “good” one. So I have… Read more →
“The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.” Joseph Campbell As the boat rounded the small jetty, we got a splash of sea water. The captain righted his course and pulled around toward the bay. The sandy beach lay before us, its white sand sparkling in the afternoon sun. Being on the East Coast meant that the… Read more →
I am having a little bit of writers block today. Maybe it is the adorable two-year old wanting me to play a Thai dice game with her. Maybe it is the excitement of having awesome guests staying with us that have traveled all the way from our hometown to journey through Southeast Asia. Maybe it is the heavenly hot days… Read more →

It made me ready to start traveling again. We are visiting Kuala Lumpur this month, and have many other plans in the works. Make sure to follow/subscribe and… Read more →
Chad spoiled me this Christmas with a massage package at a the Kanlaya Aromatic and Spa here in Hua Hin. What a lucky lady I am! I had been mentioning how I wanted to try out the clean and large looking spa since we arrived here two months ago. I just have a hard time taking the time to do… Read more →
This past Monday we decided to head out and do something a bit different. We didn’t feel like treading to the beach, we definitely didn’t feel like going to the mall (blech!), we felt like being outdoors and partaking in some physical activity. If you know me, you already know that I hate most physical activity in nature. In fact… Read more →
This past week we had friends stay with us from the UK for a few days. I feel refreshed. Although I do not consider myself a total extrovert, I do love being social. Having visitors is a wonderful way of getting my “fix” of conversation and fun, I already know all our own stories so I often have to dig… Read more →
I have felt a little bit like there was not anything that truly surprised me so far on this trip to Thailand. I have loved what we have done up to this point and have found everything exciting and fun, but our chance trip to The Venezia on Monday left me feeling like I should take more chances and be a… Read more →
