Hi Everyone, I promise, I will try hard to write a BRIEF description of my journey to Canada for a very Tribal wedding! And I know there’s a LOT of photos, but… well… too bad! I started coming down with a cold a few days before I left. Of course. I didn’t feel very sick while…
Hi everyone! The weather has cooled off significantly in the past few weeks. I still get surprised by how fast the seasons change here! Unfortunately, there is still no word as to when our hot water will come back on. Big sigh. On a better note, the October Holiday has been and gone and now…
Hi everyone, Yes, I am back in China, proud owner of a three month employment visa, which is valid until September 18th. That’s how long I have to go and get the work visa I TRIED to apply for two months ago! Getting the visa was a very simple process – I went in on…
Hello all! I know this is a long one, so I’ve made a quick letter here at the top, and then there’s a break before all the other stuff if you don’t feel like reading all the details :) It’s been a while since my last update – and plenty has been happening! Health wise,…
Hi everyone! I am at Sydney airport right now, about to head off to gate 53 where I’ll be boarding a flight to Bangkok in about an hour. I leave Bangkok at 12:30am local time so by this time tomorrow I’ll be back at my place in BJ!!! YAY!!!! I’m excited :) This trip to Australia has been… odd… as every trip “home”…

I got to my guest house at nearly midnight on Tuesday the 26th, spent the next day wandering around the Khao San area, and up to the Chao Phraya river, stopping to eat in little places, taking random photos, and reading my book by the river (getting an almost sunburn that looked painful even though it…
Hi everyone! Well, I made it back to Australia! I got in to Sydney lunchtime Tuesday and to Canberra the next evening. Last night I slept in my old room in my old bed. Mum made the bed up with a blanket and two doonas and I thought I was going to be too hot but…
So I made it to Bangkok without a hitch. Well, sort of. I made it without a hitch my second try… I managed to get mixed up and thought my flight was 9pm Monday night when it was actually 9am Monday morning! Oops! Made a few calls and my travel agent got me on a…
Hi everyone, I’ve been meaning to send an update for… well, ages. I kept thinking I’d wait til I had photos organised to send along but… yeah, not so good with that. But I’ve picked a few randoms – hope you like them. So after I got back from Australia, Amanda and Andrew headed home,…
Good morning, all! I don’t do New Year’s resolutions, but if I was going to, I might add “send more update emails” to the list. I really want to stay in touch better this year. I know that some of you enjoy reading my emails but aren’t so hot on hitting the reply button –…
