All The Places Creating Takes Me
I've been thinking quite a bit lately about what it means to lead a life that other people don't understand. The concept of that has totally morphed for me. A year ago, I would have said that picking up and moving across the world was a wild thing to do. Today, having made that journey …
Surprise! I moved to Phuket. It has been a roller coaster ride since I made the decision to move, and a very bumpy one. In fact, a better analogy might be a very steep, winding mountain, because that was something literal I had to learn how to conquer on my motorcycle since I got here...it …
In case you aren’t an avid follower of my blog, I’ll give you a quick review of my time in Songkhla so far (plus some new information). I was having a rough transition. Though the city itself is lovely, and I’ve had positive experiences here, I was going through/am coming out of an internal purging …
If you know even the basics of Thai tourism, then you very likely know about Full Moon parties. Essentially, monthly gatherings where a bunch of tourists consume a lot of substances and wreck a beach. I hadn't had too much interest in one, but this is the story of how I ended up at a …

I've relocated again, this time to the very south of Thailand, almost Malaysia. I know I moved to the right place because I feel free. I could tell even as I was flying over the region and observing the openness of the terrain. I know its right, because when I walk along the beach in …
I have absolutely been slacking on writing a blog, and for that I'm sorry! There's been a lot going on in my world. It's been eventful, but more chill, all at once. Last week, none of the kids in my kindergarten came to school because three of them caught Hand, Foot and Mouth disease. So …
I moved to Chonburi! It's a beach city about an hour outside of Bangkok, and it is a totally different pace of life. As someone who has often been plucked out of one situation by the universe and placed into a far better one, I should not be surprised that I now find myself in …
I wrote and posted a rant in the heat of frustration that I've since taken down. I've had some time to regroup and cool off from the situation, and I'm in a very good place now. I'm seeing that all that's happened has occurred for my highest good. I'm looking at my situation as part …
There’s a clothing shop on my street that I’ve gotten a few things from. Everything there is secondhand, and a lot of it has been modified, which I’m getting really into (learning some very basic upcycling techniques until I graduate to using a sewing machine.) Anyway, the owner is a very sweet Thai woman who …
