It is often noted that the first year of marriage is the hardest. And to be honest, this year WAS difficult, but being married was the easy part! It’s been a hell of 12 months worth of adventures! …to the tune of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”… On the first month of marriage my true …
By his third gag, it was evident he couldn’t read the very visible sign. We were the last two to pile into the van on its way to Kerchor Eco Elephant Park and I noticed it right away. “NO PUKING – 200 baht fine” It struck me as odd, as though anyone would waste an …

For the first time in our lives, we were millionaires. On our arrival to Vietnam, we withdrew ONE MILLION dongs from the ATM.

As we drifted further from the center of Chiang Mai, we wondered where exactly we had booked our hotel. Sitting in our taxi on the way to Home at Nine after a long 10 hour bus journey, we were convinced this travel day would never come to an end. “Shouldn’t we be there by now?” …

“Oooh, hot boy!” she giggled from across the kitchen of the Bhum Thai cookery school. No, she wasn’t eyeing up my husband. She was just amused by his insatiable desire to add more chili peppers to his food. I couldn’t help but do a little dance (spatula in hand) chanting “hot boy” for the next …
