Thankful for Thailand

By Roem  //  Travel, blog  //  No Comments

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you all are enjoying family, or have already enjoyed them (I have no idea what time or day it is, someone just informed me that Thanksgiving was today).

I was officially sunburned today… not my proudest moment.  But after yesterday's day in the sun, I thought my "base tan" would hold up.

Needless to say, my Base Tan gave NO defense, and rolled over like a lobster in a pot, which is exactly what I look like right now.

But thankful, I am.  This place is so much easier to visit and enjoy with the smallest of effort, I can't believe more Americans do it.  But that's the last I'll say about that… it's like Yelping about your favorite new haunt only to find it full of Marina kids with popped collars and their Ugg trodding counterparts within a week.  Better left unspoiled.  (That's my SF ref for the week.)

More pics, videos, and journal jottings in an attempt to capture this life changing journey.

I'm off to get a Aloe Vera Massage ($5) and join my fellow lobsters at a lounge… probably gonna eat some street food too.  Agh… how will I ever return?  Couldn't I just find a local gig and move here?

Yes.

I could.

Will I?

After my last show in Koh Phi Phi, I think I may have found my audience… the travelers, the thinkers, the good time opportunists, the believers… and most likely…

You.

I'm especially thankful that you read my notes.

Much more to come.

Thankfully,
Roem

p.s.  I'll be home in days… and deep down, I'm ready.  I miss you guys.
