pictures pictures

I know, I'm going a little blog crazy, but I'm sure it will calm down soon. It's around 1pm here, and between the hours of 12pm-3pm, its not a great idea to be outside since the sun is sooo strong. The two dorms for volunteers are about a 10 minute bike ride apart, and of course the internet is at the other dorm. In the mornings I have to bike here in order to get picked up from my teaching placement, so if I stay here after teaching past noon, I am kinda stuck here for a while.

Anyways, I finally got around to uploading some pictures, so I thought I'd share them with you. Here are a few.

The image at the top left is me drinking water out of a bag, so it could be cold water. Classy huh?

The image on the top right is at the rememberance day for people who died in the war.

This image on the left is my room, or well my half of the room. I sleep on the floor and often with a mosquitto net around it. I will get pictures of the room now that I have fully moved in and whatnot. It's not exactly the most comfortable room, but for some reason sleeping so close to the ground makes it cooler. Plus, we have a fan that keeps us pretty cool at night.

To the right is our porch. We have Thai language lessons out there in the afternoons, and its a nice way to relax/read/catch up etc.

On the left next, is a picture of a bunch of us out to eat during the festival. Around the table starting from the male, is eddy (from Perth, WA, AUS), Anke(from Germany), Johanna(from Sweeden) and

The next picture on the right is the classroom and the students I am working with. They are soo great. Today we even had some male teachers join the class.


Lastly, I wanted to give you a brief look at the markets and the breadth of products sold there. You can honestly buy EVERYTHING you could ever want at the markets. Even underwear!!!I hope you all enjoy! Miss you all!!
