On the road again...: November 2012

Sunday, 25 November 2012

The original plan was to travel for a year or so and my most recent idea was to do ten countries within a years time. Well.. So far I've done eight (Cuba, England, Finland, Hong Kong, Australia, NZ, Vietnam and Thailand), maybe I can fit two more for next month who knows..

As life goes there is constant changes happening and I've always been a 'weather vane' (as my mum calls me) so I've changed the plan again. This time the decision was made for me which kinda makes life a bit easier. A certain someone decided to go home so I thought maybe it's time for me to do the same thing (dont get too excited in Finland as my home is nowadays in England). I hope Brighton is ready for me as this time I am staying! I'm actually getting very excited about this as now I've got all the possibilities.. I can find a new job which I'll hopefully enjoy, find a new place to live and make it to my own little nest and I've got the most amazing friends waiting for me with the bells on the other hand and a bottle of tequila on the other :) vink vink.. I don't actually mind it's winter as it's xmas time and life is full of happiness and joy, it's just up to you how you choose to live it. And I've chosen to stay positive and happy.

And one more thing to be happy about is the fact we quit our job here in Phuket and are now able to travel before heading home. Everything is booked and sorted. Btw I will arrive to Brighton late on the 4th, if anyone fancies taking me for a drink or a dinner my old number will be valid again so send me a text or gimme a call.

See ya soon!

Cooking class

We did a Thai cooking class earlier today. Cooked Phad Thai Goong, Gaeng Kiew Wan Gai (green curry) and Gaeng Karee Moo (yellow curry), it was all tasty although we were hoping to make the curry paste ourselves. They also took us to the local market to explain more about the ingredients and spices. All in all nice experience on a rainy day. Tomorrow we will go and spend the day at Phi Phi island, that's where the movie the beach was filmed.

Phuket can 'Phuket'

News of the day.. work still sucks. It must be the most boring thing ever happened to me :) We've been thinking about doing a little tour around Thailand to get more out of this.. the plan is to do a trip to Phi Phi island, then off to Koh Samui for few nights and then head to Bangkok for some weekend fun. Just need to wait for the payday.

Here is some pictures I've taken around Phuket. Just driving around the island looking for viewpoints with Rhonda the Honda (scooter), also had a tuk tuk taking us some places in Phuket town few weeks ago.
