so i'm a bad communicator

Hey all!! Yeah so much for my promise to keep this thing updated. I'm having a little difficult actually getting to the internet...mainly cause I'm too lazy to walk to the free internet place that's about a 40-min walk from where we're staying and too cheap to pay the local fees. What can I say. Anyways so the finally get to the internet place I forgot completely to bring my little notebook with my rantings in it. DAMN it. Yeah i'm dumb.


Anyways, so brief catch up and then i'll back log all the other info at a later date. Currently we are staying in Khao Lak where we are doing our volunteer work. Ah if anyone out there reading this i would like to do a quick plug for volunteers. THEY NEED PEOPLE. There entire communities that need to be rebuilt and the more volunteers that could come the better. So if you have time, feel like taking a trip to Thailand and feel like weilding a trowel or a paintbrush come on down. (even better if you have some construction skills...unlike us).

Ok. So here is a list of the place we have been so far.

Bangkok - psychotically busy, polluted but definately interesting.
Chiang Mai - a calmer version of Bangkok, with way less pollution and just a calmer atmosphere (Also its about 5 degrees cooler).
Phuket - didn't really see it. Decent airport though.
Khao Lak - great town. Can totally see that it was once a major tourest attraction but now the entire town is mainly made up of volunteers and the local business people.
Surat Thani - really long story will get into at a later rant. But really F*#@! hot...apparently its not moonson season there.

Yeah so that's it so far. I'm having a great time so far. I've had a few moments when i've wanted to kill/maim/go home/etc but overall its been fabulous!!!!
