After a good two weeks in Cambodia, we’re now back in Bangkok for the second-to-last time. Tomorrow we’ll take a short bus ride to beach town in the south called Pattaya. This is our last chance to tan it up on the beach.

After a long debacle with plane tickets (don’t ask. for real.) I’m officially coming back to the good old US of A on the 8th. A part of me is mourning the loss of my time here, but I can’t lie and say that I’m not excited to see the fam, sleep in my own bed and party at some much-anticipated weddings.

This whole trip has just been adventure. First I thought I’d stay for a year, then that changed to a few months and now I’m going home three weeks sooner than expected. It’s a funny thing when you learn that what you’ve been combing the globe for all along is right where you left it: home.

I’m sure my life will be a morphing like crazy a week from now, but as for now I’ve still got a week on the beach. Love.

P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!
