I'm going to medical school in just a few months. How lucky am I.... I am grateful for the opportunities that are ahead of me. However, for now I plan to travel the world, see as much as I can, and allow the experiences I have to penetrate my being and leave me in a new state. I look forward to today, to right now.... I AM discovering patience, love, and compassion within me that I did not see before. Love.

Out and AboutOne of the memorable momments of my night that truely never ended. A few folks I met with some of the local street venders. Thats right, the local kids out well past 2am still trying to sell us candy and flowers.
Ko Sahn RoadInfamous for its energy, street vendors, and just total chaos, this is a shot of Ko Sahn road during the day. I stayed right in the middle for two nights. Last time i'll ever do that.
First Tuk TukMy first tuk tuk ride ever. If you have ever driven on the streets of bangkok then you can understand the facial expression. Really that scary.
Night time chaosYou already have seen Ko Sahn in the day. Here it is at night. The place really comes alive with all sorts of lights, ladyboys, dancing.... the lot.
Big BuddhaIts just a really big buddha with me standing in front of it. I mean its a really really big buddha.
BucketsOne part whisky, one part coke, one part red bull, a bucket and a few straws and you have one of the most popular type drinks in thailand. This was my first and last, well maybe not last but definately first.
Thumbs UpThis little girl dominated me in a thumb war and as a result I had to buy whatever it was she was selling. Well worth the story.
Earth to MatildaTwo lovely girls I met along the way. Here we are with our make shift mobile phones.
Bugs for LunchNot exactly lunch time, but that title was for you dad. These bug carts rolled around the streets of bangkok selling crickets, magots, scorpions, etc...
YummReally not that bad. Fried and salted, I quite enjoyed the taste of these little critters. I finished the entire bag.
SunriseI needed to document that I in fact stayed out all night to see the sun come up. So you saw Ko Sahn during the day, at night, and now at sunrise the next morning. How I managed to make it through the whole of the night is beyond me. Maybe it was the buckets.
