Good day
As the title indicates, our 'year' is over. How was it? Exciting, scary, fun, amazing, wonderful, terrible, lonely, exotic. Everything you can imagine and more.
Some things we will never forget like the up-close-and-personal visits with many animals, first time trying a zip-line (totally hooked, and want to go again), climbing a volcano to watch the sun rise, riding a tuk-tuk and a motorcycle taxi (not on the same day), and the many Thai cultural celebrations.
Hopefully, some things will dim over time like the smell, the dirt, the humidity (although I didn't really mind it), the loneliness and the frustration of limited classroom resources.
But mostly, I met some really great people and hope they remain in my life forever!
Overall, it was great and while I am now facing an uncertain future, although not without its' options, I am glad we did it.
