Khao Yai: The bat caves off the beaten track

And the best Tom Kha Gai (Chicken in Coconut Soup) I have ever tasted. Having always travelled with family or on school trips, where itineraries were rarely dictated by your own choices, being able to plan weekend trips, with transport, accommodation, and food was equal parts thrilling as it was daunting. Daunting, because I felt…Continue Reading Khao Yai: The bat caves off the beaten track

Universality

Living and working overseas with a group of diverse individuals, in interests, heritage, race, allergies, preferences in pets and experiences with trying new fruit, has simmered down to one phrase for me: Your individual experience is not universal. While our individual experiences, however, may not be universal, the emotions we feel are. They simply vary…Continue Reading Universality

End of Journey: my internship in Bangkok

I would like to dedicate my final blog on this journey to my internship at RingZero Game Studio. There have been many highs and lows.

Although graphic design is something I have an interest in, I have realised that I would…Continue Reading End of Journey: my internship in Bangkok

Thailand’s Northern Capital

For someone like me who loves the cold weather and comes from a country with fiercely freezing winters, I tend to genuinely enjoy colder weather. Coming to a hot and humid Southeast Asian country such as Thailand, I knew it would take a while for me to ‘warm’ up to the climate. This is why…Continue Reading Thailand’s Northern Capital

Khao soi > KFC

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of visiting Chiang Mai, Thailand, and it was an unforgettable experience. One of the highlights of my trip was visiting an elephant sanctuary. It was a beautiful and humbling experience to be able to interact with these gentle giants up close. The sanctuary was well-maintained, and the elephants looked…Continue Reading Khao soi > KFC

Marvel and Football Run the World

Kids wear Marvel clothes. Adults wear football shirts.  Arsenal and Liverpool are the most popular teams here in Thailand; their shirts are everywhere. The presence of Marvel is also seen here; kids tend to love Spider-Man and Captain America. Being here reinforced to me how big and popular these brands are. They’re seen on billboards…Continue Reading Marvel and Football Run the World
