The night before my flight to Penang, I went online to check into my flight. I was met with an error screen, informing me that I could not check in because I didn’t have sufficient months left on my passport. I had five months until my passport expired – you need six. But I had already … More megan nearly moves to malaysia
Is that CCR reference obvious enough? Are you singing it in your head right now? Good, because it’s stuck in mine. Every once and awhile it blends into Born on the Bayou, but none of their songs are really great to be humming and table-drumming to in a quiet co-working space. But I digress… A … More run through the jungle
Recently took some friends up to Farm Mor Por/Mirasierra again for a little city break. I can’t get enough of the place. Being at Farm Mor Por reminds me of my riding days as a kid and Mirasierra is just really gorgeous. Bonus: there is always a steady flow of sangria, reminding me of my … More repeat offender
A few leftovers from my quick shoot in Ari for KLM. One of my favorite neighborhoods – actually looking for a new place here or possibly Suan Plu…if you’re in Bangkok and know of anything, let me know:) Porcupine Cafe Tokyo Bike The Yard Summer Street Friends at Fatbird
It is so nice having talented friends. The magical little nymph behind The Pickled Leaf is my friend Trish. She’s currently in culinary school, and her new venture The Pickled Leaf is a simple concept – bringing people together to partake in one of life’s greatest pleasures: fooooood. And it is really, really good food. The … More the pickled leaf
noun 1. a statement or proposition that seems self-contradictory or absurd but in reality expresses a possible truth. 2. any person, thing, or situation exhibiting an apparently contradictory nature. Been feeling like a walking talking paradox lately.. I want to keep this show on the road; to keep moving – going where I want, when I want. To fill … More paradox
I’ve really run the gamut of emotions during this year in Thailand. I flip flop between thinking this is the best decision I’ve made in awhile…or the worst. Going home for a month did nothing to make my decision to live so far away any easier. While I love exploring as many places as I … More homeland
You really don’t need an excuse to escape to the beach. But, if I had to use one, my one-year Thailand anniversary was as good a reason as any. The trip consisted of the usual suspects: Ja, Michael and John. Location: Koh Samet, a short drive and ferry ride from Bangkok. We did our fair share of … More vacation life
A bit of random Bangkok action from my DSLR while I work on some new content for this site. What kinds of articles do you want to see? I’m thinking of heading into a more general lifestyle direction, while still sticking with the concept of travel and living abroad. Let me know in the comments!
Sometimes weekends sneak up on me. I hate doing the same old thing, so sometimes, on a whim, I’ll point to somewhere on a map of Thailand, throw some gear into a bag, and hit the bus station. One such weekend, I got Scott and John to join me as I ventured to a new … More petchabun problems
I recently passed my one-year mark for living in Thailand. And in a few days, I will fly back to the states. I’m only going to be stateside for about a month, and then it’s back to my Asian home. Obviously the greatest source of excitement is the thought of seeing and squeezing and loving on … More an anniversary
Our trip wrapped up with sunrise coffees, a trip to Chiang Mai’s famous temple, Doi Suthep, nighttime massages, a lot more motorbike riding, and waterfalls. The daydreams of living up in those mountains, taking my motorcycle out on weekends to explore new trails and overlooks, sipping coffee at one of the city’s many (many) cafes … More try and make me leave (pt. 3)
