Now I’m finally in Thailand, and although I still have 2 months of traveling left and 3 months before school (AHHH!), it’s the first time that I can actually feel my trip coming towards the end. But I really shouldn’t complain, since I have a LOT ahead of me. So hello Thailand! So far, it seems much cleaner, more organized, and more friendly, or rather just more familiar, than India. I took back the more friendly because I don’t think many cultures are more friendly and warm than Indians, but it can be difficult to feel when so many people are constantly trying to rip you off and making you feel like a walking spectacle. So now in the most touristy secion of Bangkok, I ate pad thai, bought some clothes (thailand has really nice clothes! complete opposite of awful Indian fashion), and just had a 1 hour thai massage. Tomorrow, I’m meeting up with a cousin I’ve never met before and I’ll begin planning out my month. Exciting times!

Oh and my new Thai cell phone number is +66 085 156 2403
Feel free to call whenever. Really.
