The Emerald Hotel, BKK

This has been an experience I could never have planned or saw coming. I needed to leave India so that I could renew my visa. Having a few friends in Thailand I came here to see some sites and experience life here. This means that I am staying with one of my friend’s family here in Thailand. I have been at a Tibetan Buddhist monastery in a rather remote part of India for a few months now. There I had a nice and comfortable room. Then I came to Thailand.

Lest just say I have been spoiled by all the creature comforts of having power 24/7 and AC to boot. These are things many who read this might say “So what?” Well you have to add power management to dictate what things you do that day on the computer, well your perspective changes. It becomes a little exciting to be able to turn a switch and the light comes on, every time.

As for the title "Yak -> Loseling -> ?"of this scroll well Yakima is where I grew up and Loseling is where I am at now. After Loseling I have not planned my life out. It is useless for me to plan. I have sketched out in the past how I was going to do things. Yet it I never seem to fallow my own map. Don’t get me wrong. It has not been a bad trip by any means but I know now that no one could have charted this journey.

Hey, my first time on. Ah, plans are for wimps. Take it by the horns and see where you go--life that is. But don't forget to write your family. often!
love ya,
