So it's been just over 2 weeks, but actually feels like so much longer, because I seem to have squeezed in quite a lot. And now it's coming to an end.... I flew back to Bangkok from Hanoi; on arriving at Bangkok airport, I felt strangely like I was "home" again - even though I can't read any of the signs in Thai, and can't speak much of the language, I know how things work here, so it was nice to spend my last couple weeks here. (And when I say I know how things...

Wow haven't written for a really long time! I will try to keep it short and sweet where possible and fill in the details when I see you all in less than 3 weeks now :) Last time I wrote, I was back in Prakhonchai which was really nice. It was a really hot couple of weeks, and you can imagine what teaching 8 year olds is like in that weather!

Then first stop the following day was Ayutthaya, the old capital of Thailand. We spent the day cycling around, catching the sun, and seeing all the old temple ruins. It was really pretty, and we went to the night market for food. One night, we went to a bar for drinks and the ba...

Ok, so I have SO much to catch up on, and no time to do it. Leaving Prakhonchai tonight, and have lots of things to do before then, but wanted to write a quick blog entry before I go, because I don't know when I'll next have the chance! The last day I wrote a blog was Valentine's day; we ended up having a really long meeting at school that I didn't understand, didn't leave school until about 6pm, and Bomb and his parents were on their way to my school to pick me...
