I am on a little trip upcountry to Yasothon
Today I will be driving to Yasothon – the place where Nang is from- in the North East of Thailand. It will be a long drive – about 11 hours and I am trying t get everything organised before I head away!
The last few days I have been in Hua Hin have been fine. The new house is grand and is in a perfect location. There is certainly more to do in Hua Hin compared with Cha-am. I think it is more suitable to my lifstyle and someone my age. Cha-am is really only for retirees or someone looking for a very quiet time. It is definitely more Thai but I think the culture shock coming from Bangkok was too much for me!
The only problem is how I am going to adjust to the culture shock when I get back to Ireland next year! I really think its going to be a struggle. I suppose it will all hinge on what type of work I get and whether or not I enjoy the job. The weather will be abig influence too because it is so good all year round here….. rain, cold and wind don’t appeal to me!
I am going to try to lose some weight before I get back to Ireland. Although the extra kilos will help me against the bad weather I certainly have to lose some. Its getting out of hand.I am spending too much time behind the computer and not enough exercise. I always feel better after the exercise but I just can’t motivate myself before!! I have even put photos of my belly on the fridge door!
I will try to check email over the next few days but it may be difficult.
