As a suggestion before moving abroad, several people mentioned I should write a blog to document my adventures. I've never claimed to be computer savvy or always gramitcally correct, but it can't be that hard right? So here goes my friends...welcome to my crazy life =)

Welcome to Bangkok. After a brief overview from the Hangover 2, I have been pleasantly surprised to find that Bangkok can actually be quite a lovely place. Yes, you have your seedy bars, flirty bar girls, and interesting ladyboys, but Bangkok is also a beautiful and colorful city with lots of smiling faces, 7-11’s, busy markets, cheap foot massages, and the best street food around! I could eat noodle soup with fried pork every night! A few minor mishaps, but I feel I’m adjusting quite nicely.

A sleepless 23 hours of flying, 2 books, and 4 movies later, I made it to Bangkok! I loaded my three enormous suitcases in the van while repeatedly apologizing to the driver for the amount of belongings I was dragging along. I got to the hotel and conked out, knowing that in 6 hours I had to wake up for my first day of work! Talk about jet lag. First priority, finding a place to live. I was pretty basic in that my needs were a washing machine, a pool, and a clean safe building. Let the good times begin.
