A friend visited from New York City- I played tour guide to all the big sights and sounds (and a few out of the way sights and sounds). I took this picture at Wat Pho and really like the way it turned out, this picture is filtered, but the sky was crazy blue and great clouds.
It is always fun to have visitors and play tourist myself, a good reminder of how many unique sights are right in the middle of Bangkok.

I began working in Bangkok during 2008- a time that featured a great deal of political unrest in Thailand and particularly Bangkok.
I had lived in San Francisco for 15 years and was working on a project in Thailand. Generally, I spent 2 weeks in Bangkok and then 3-4 weeks in San Francisco. Did Bangkok begin to feel like home? Yes, and No. Bangkok and the Thai culture forced me to feel many things, the change in culture and environment was so dramatic it forced the decision- embrace or ignore.
I embraced and made Bangkok my home and base in 2009. I have enjoyed living in Bangkok, experiencing Thailand and the entire ASEAN region. I moved to Singapore in 2016...fallen behind on this blog since.

That’s a great picture, I am envious of you having all this on your doorstep. I was blown away by the detail and colour all around me at the Wats. It really was too much of a whistlestop tour. When I come back I will be on my own so I will have plenty of time to take everything in properly. Thanks again for all your posts, I always look forward to them.
