Trip update: Now in Bangkok

Just a quick update as I’ve been really busy lately with poor/non reliable internet access the past few weeks. Here are some quick updates I’ll use an excuse for my lack of updates recently - My 4 night trip in Hong Kong went pretty well and I arrived in Bangkok the 1st of August to stay at a guesthouse near Khao San Road for a few nights. Once Thammasat University activities and orietnation started up, many other exchange students and I found a very nice, affordable apartment to reside in for the semester until January.

In the meantime, I’ve learned tons about culture, traveling, Thailand, and Europe (via my fellow European exchange students and friends). Both alone and with others I’ve explored Bangkok fairly extensively for the short time I’ve been here so far, and this past weekend some friends and I went to the islands and beach at Koh Samui to relax and see the sun for five days.

It’s been a wild journey so far and I expect it to continue. I’ll surely be maximizing my time here the next couple weeks which will definitely be reflected into the posts that will follow later on.  In the short term, I apologize for infrequent updates, but I hope to return to regular helpful updates once I find a routine and get settled in here in BKK. In the meantime, you can follow my more personal blog for the Thailand trip specifically at Bangkoking.com.
