The Travel Gap

The Christmas festivities are in full swing. This week consisted of making cards for the Great Christmas Card Exchange and setting up my little Christmas tree.

I’m going to be honest with you: Nothing really notable or exciting happened this week. It mostly consisted of me either standing in front of a classroom or sitting behind my computer. Regardless, I didn’t want to leave you hanging, so here’s a brief post about me rushing in the Christmas season. This is a shorter post than usual, but I assure you that the remainder of the month will be filled with exciting stories.

It’s hard to believe, but I’ve been in Thailand now for around ninety days. During this time, I’ve adjusted to the new culture, learned some of the language, and built some incredible relationships. It’s truly been a remarkable experience. However, unfortunately for me, ninety days is also the duration of my visa. I’m not quite ready to come home yet, so this meant I had to embark on a visa run to Laos in the hope of applying for and receiving another visa. Please fasten your seatbelts because this week was such a wild ride.

All About My Schools This week marked my first full teaching schedule at all eight schools—okay, technically, I only taught at seven schools. For the majority of the schools, it was my first time teaching there. As a result, I became extremely good at teaching Lesson One.

A small post expressing my gratitude.
