Thailand, 12 Dec 2006 --

Just an update for those of you thinking we fell off the edge of the earth…

I’m in Bangkok (again) after a quickly trip to Krabi to hang out with my friends Sarah and Donald. It was quite an ambitious journey, and I manged to get from Sihanoukville, Cambodia to Railey beach in Thailand in two and a half days. The journey involved three motorcycle taxis, three boat trips, two share taxis, one regular taxi, one train, three buses, and a minibus, and cost around $29.

We’re all in Bangkok now. Sadly, Sarah and Donald must return to Washington, DC. Not so sadly, Andris and I finally be reunited very soon in the extremely-small town of Don Det in Laos. Andris is already there where the only Internet communication is through a cell phone. Tonight I’m taking a sleeper train to the border. Also, sleeper trains are awesome.

Anyway, I’m no longer an English teacher and I’m back to being an ordinary traveller. My experience in Cambodia was wonderful, but I’m part of me is grateful to be back in Thailand.
