My Thai Discovery Journey

My Thai Discovery Journey

Hi All,

Two weeks ago I decided that I needed to step outside my comfort zone and change my scenery by heading over to North Thailand for a month. It’s not a completely new experience as I have been in this area before but this time I will be there for longer, will venture further afield and will travel alone.

I am excited by this journey and intend it to be one of self discovery as much as absorbing the culture of this beautiful and friendly part of the world. My daily Yoga sessions and a Meditation Workshop have prepared me to be at peace with myself and being in this new environment will further facilitate a sense of calm as well as enlightenment.

I invite you to share my journey. I intend this thread to also serve as a travel diary and will post some pics.

I have woken early and am thinking about the last minute things that need to be done. Tonight I will be sleeping on a plane (hopefully as it’s not the easiest way for me to get rest) and come morning, I will be in a different country.

This trip is meant to be one of simplicity. I am taking just a carryon bag and won’t be partaking in the usual touristy types of things. I won’t to live the life there and am open to whatever unfolds. I have booked the first couple of nights accommodation and then will play it by ear.

So come along and let the adventure begin.

@soul. I struggled for one week not being able to use my dominant right arm. Very frustrating trying to brush your hair or teeth with the left hand. But I found towards the end of that week, that I didn't feel so 'why me' any more and I was adjusting to using my left arm.
I hope you find the same happens for you quickly.

Thinking of you too @soul Glad to read you are finally resting at your friends home. What a wonderful one she is! You are lucky there. My husband use to find pain meds made him sick too after surgery so he does not take any now!! Not sure how he deals with the pain.

It certainly will be a challenge for you @soul but one where we will walk with you every step of the way 💕x

It means a lot to have my Forum Friends encourage me and send me beautiful virtual flowers.

@Former-Member - slow is the only speed I go now. Wish I had been cycling at that rate 😥. Had bad dreams and flash backs during the night maybe because I had a deeper sleep. Pain has been more manageable.
