Most Memorable Travel Experience
Lipe island : I love that moment. This paradise gave me a chance to meet good friends!
Koh Pangan : It was really great at the first time on this island - it's also the first time that I traveled alone!
Luang Prabang and Xiang khwang, Loas : I was very excited when the police caught me and my friend because he played djimbe in public :O
USA : was detained at the immigration division for 4 hours. They took my photos and my fingerprints as if i kill somebody but the thing was my passport photo (first passport) doesn't look like me :( But that's really me!!!!
Trekking in Nepal : They said "Trekking can prove the relationship between you and your trekking partner". Forever friends or short time friends, now I already got the answer in mind.
India : ohhhh ... more than words!

Love travelling. Not sure is it because I was born while mom and dad were doing the road trip to Penang or this wonderful world inspired me?
Not too many countries that i have been to. Spent time for a year in Chicago then back to Bangkok, my home town, to work. After that I haven't got a chance to leave my country more longer than 5 months. Mostly travel around Thailand. Many beautiful beaches are waiting for me to say hi. And had a few experiences around Europe and Asia.
I always want to make a move but it isn't easy for me now to move and move all around. I'm getting older so sometimes I want something (ex. a good job) to make sure that my currency status is stable enough to take care of everything I've got now.
But working in the office is kinda boring at the moment. (Actually is all the time!) So between 2007-2008 I did something that most of the other Thais don't. I quit from work at JWT advertising agency to travel for like 4-5 months altogether. (I knew it wasn't a good time to quit because a good job isn't easy to find here but if I don't quit, I don't think I have a chance to travel more than two weeks!). Lucky, I got the same job in another company in one week after back from the trip. But I always think : I am a writer (for advertising and books) so maybe I can write and send it back to my clients from wherever I go?
I don't know. Maybe yes but if I can't do it or if I have to work here forever, what would it be?
I don't know. But no matter what the destiny leads me, I won't let it stop me from travelling for sure.
Life is always beautiful so just enjoy it when I'm still alive!

If you didn't like someone just because of the name but found out later that they could be your beautiful friends after spent time with them for just a few days .. that's the same feeling as mine to this fantastic beach! ...................................... .... I felt that yes but since 2005 but three years later my feeling is totally changed!

The mood swing trip : even we were in the different mood during the trip or had some feelings that weird (amusing, dullest, happy, annoying, attractive, strange, entertaining, common, uncommon, fun, missing, laughing, beautiful, ugly, sarcastic, like, unlike, common, uncommon, usual, unusual, misunderstanding, lost, smiling, over, under or whatever) but we have brought a good friendship and lots of love back at last.
