So I haven’t updated much as I have just been relaxing for the most part. So here is a lists of my likes and dislikes so far:<\/p>\n
Let’s start with dislikes so I can end on a good note:<\/p>\n
– Traffic. It’s not very good here.
\n– Mosquito bites. Sooo itchy.
\n– Stomach upsets. You just can’t avoid them if you want to eat intesting food here. Luckily I’ve got medication for it from when I went to India.
\n– The heat! I’m used to it, but doesn’t mean I enjoy it.
\n– Finding clothes my size. Not that I should buy anything, but it is something to consider.
\n– Being away from my friends for the good times and the sad times (unfortunately).
\n– Missing my neice and cats and the rest of my family too!<\/p>\n
Likes:<\/p>\n
– Visiting old friends and family again.
\n– Going for a 1 1\/2 hr massage with an old friend from NZ.
\n– Playing with my brother’s girlfriend’s cousins kids. They made me think of me and Giffle when we were the same age.
\n– Going swimming every second day or so. I’m staying with my brother and his girlfriend out of Bangkok and their compound has a swimming pool. Refreshing!
\n– Food glorious food! All the favorites that I can’t get in NZ. Do not even get me started on the fruit! I am very contented. Everyday my brother rings me up on his way home from work and asks what I want for dinner, then he buys it for me from the market.
\n– Prices. From the market most meals cost less than 50 baht, ie about $2. I am very tempted to stay for a while if I am too broke after Japan next month. I looked at accommodation and studio apartments can run about 5,000 baht a month, depending on how flash it is and location. Depends if I can find work though. Plus I still have my visa for UK.. Anyway, back on track…
\n– 7-11s I don’t know what is it about these convenience stores, but I like the variety in them and that there is everything in travel sizes. Or just shopping in general. I really like shopping in Bangkok. I have deliberately avoided my usual shopping haunts as I am saving up for Japan.
\n– Going to the movies. If you go in Thailand make sure you stand up for the King’s song! Me and my Bro went to see Larry Crowne, which I enjoyed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
