Okay, I know that I've been in Thailand too long when I find myself longing for a 7-11. In Thailand, they are everywhere - you can't go anywhere without finding a store located conveniently on every street corner. I go there to buy snacks, drinks, top up minutes for my phone and I go nearly everyday. Now, while I've been traveling there has been a severe lack of 7-11's and I find my convenient store needs going unmet and I have to search out places which sell drinks and the like. It's terribly discomforting (both that I have to look and that I'm missing 7-11). Any who, just had a minute and thought I'd share that.
I'm out to explore and should be on later to continue the stories from Brunei. Hope all is well.

The word for blog in Thai, balawk (บล็อก), comes from the transliteration of the word "blog". Rooted in the English pronunciation but adapted to the sounds of the Thai language, this transliteration creates a word that is inextricably tied to, and created by, two worlds.

A Quote
We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And to know the place for the first time.
