Today I sleapt in as I was worried the stomach bug/food poisoning I had last night might have still been in my system.
I know I shouldn't have but for lunch I tried a pork and pork blood spicy noodle soup with green salad and I must say wow absolutely amazing - really felt content after eating it.
Next I went to suss out the price of a 3 day trek into jungle and to stay with Hill tribes. I managed to find a place that would do it for a really good price provided I brought along a friend.
In the evening I ran into Carissa and Nahshon again and then made my way to the markets for dinner. I ate an amazing curry chicken with green salad - it went down well but have me a few tummy aches afterwards.
Later on I went to meet up with a mate who was having few drinks down at travel agent where he had just done a cooking class! It turned into a really great night - drinking rum with a few locals, few songs on the guitar, some very interesting conversation with some local expats and some brilliant travel ideas.
My perspective of Thai culture and people has been completely altered after this one meeting:
There is no word in Thai for "I" - how symbolic
Even if you have nothing in your hand, you still have a hand to give
To show respect it only takes 3mm - bend your back and show respect and it will be given back 10 fold
