Go read it. It’s funny. Or maybe I just think that. Still, read it.
Okay, messed with the look of the blog. I’ll leave this for a bit and see how it goes. Some of the more photo oriented themes weren’t so text friendly so we’ll see if this is a good middle ground. I have the last photos of our arrival and then I’ll get to some of the actual place I’m living in the following posts. The flight to Bangkok We pack light. It’s important you only bring the necessities. My kettlebell made it! All of the extra wrapping is courtesy of the baggage handlers. They’re so considerate. So that’s it. We’re getting settled in right now. Almost a week here, and we’re almost done getting the supplies we need for the apartment. It’s almost time for us to do our first load of laundry, which should be an adventure. I’ll update tonight and try to make that the regular time so you guys have morning reading. However, don’t hold me to that because I have free will and I don’t get paid for this. So nothing is guaranteed.


The following photos sum up our flight experience. We both had sinus infections and colds and possibly the flu. It was awesome.
The following is a photo series of how we looked on
our longest flight.

Yes the last two were for funsies.
The connection is slowing down as it does when everyone wakes up. So that’s all for this post. Thanks for reading and next to come is pictures of the awesomeness known as Thailand.
I hate staring at a camera. That’s me personally, but I feel like a lot of people say that, so I guess a lot of people hate the way a camera lens looks when it’s pointed at them. This is how I like remembering my friends if I have to sit for a photo.

This is one of the best photos I have of two of my good friends and I. Taken by the talented Ms. Camille Lubbock (ralphalinatravels.tumblr.com).
I finally got around to posting. It’s been a crazy few days getting settled in. It’s familiar here, but there’s been so much progress. It’s amazing and at times saddening. New isn’t always better, but there is definitely some cool stuff that’s popped up since I was last here. I’ll just putz around like the wandering schmuck I am and see what happens.
More to come.
Also, I’ve simplified the blogs look for right now until I can really mess with it and get the particulars the way I want.
I like to pretend the Tiger’s blood flavored iced coffee makes me part tiger.
That means I’m an endangered species being hunted for my testicle’s medicinal properties.
Also, there are more of me in privately owned safari zoos in the States than there are of me in the wild.
I’m a tiger, rraaawwwwwrrrrr!!!!
We’re down in Hammond, Louisiana today visiting some of Camille’s family. Hopefully we’ll get into New Orleans for a quick day trip tomorrow.
Hedonism and debauchery doesn’t take that long?
For now we are drinking coffee at PJ’s. Stop by if you’re in Hammond and get some iced coffee. The Tiger’s blood is interesting.
This morning I ate seafood in a bag in preparation for the trip. I cooked it first, obviously. I looked at it suspiciously, but I haven’t had diarrhea in a while… so in the words of a famous Italian-American adventurer, “Here we goooooooo!”. God speed and good luck to my digestive track.
