WE'RE HEEEEERE!!!!!
After a cancelled flight, a lack of e-tickets, an angry Japanese woman who Billsy nearly took out and a very random reunion for Gilb in Qatar airport, Em squared hath arrived in Bangkok. It's crazy to think that after a spontaneous text this time last year suggesting a round the world adventure, it's finally become our reality.
Our hostel is a 5 minute walk from Khao San road and the staff are lovely. Our room is basic (two mattresses on a wooden floor with an added room guest - Bernard the lizard) but we can't complain at four quid a night! So far, we've managed to ruin (and eventually lose) our only map of Bangkok by using it to shelter us/protect our hair from the rain, eat with chopsticks, be conned (twice) and have a near death experience involving our tuk tuk and a very busy junction...
But no need to worry, any one of the aforementioned events could quite easily have happened to us in the UK. Basically we are looking at the next 10 months as a learning curve, and, after all, would you really expect anything less from two girls who still find it hilarious to plait their hair in to beards? We're having a great time here, and despite the many tears before we left, we're happy with our decision to take on the world together. Peace out, stay reem.
