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.

Thinking of you @soul. I think you are philosophical and brave in how you're facing this challenge. It sounds like you have some good support in place. Each step forward is a win.

Tried to get a restful day. Got up for some ginger tea then went back to bed only to be disturbed by the garbos, the mowerman next door, a courier, a charity collector and two phone calls.

Pain and nausea is improving. Have been doing my exercises three times a day. It wears me out.

Thanks for all the encouragement. It’s been a week since the surgery so I should be pleased with the progress I have made. Hate feeling so helpless though. Got caught out by my daughter for not saying please after asking her to do something for me. I think the responsibility has worn thin already for her. Would be nice if she would sometimes just offer to do something instead of me making all the requests. Rant over.
