Change of address

The view from my balcony
A more detailed update is coming soon, honest.  I've been a bad blogger, but it's just that work has picked up these last few days and I've had to dedicate my laptop hours to being gainfully employed. The good news is, this little adventure is proving to be workable and sustainable.

Short version: Chiang Mai and the authentic expat experience of northern Thailand are behind me; Wednesday I was airlifted deep into farang-infested territory down south. I'll save my rant about how unfettered tourism debases native cultures for another time, because I'm currently too busy being a total resort pig with the other white folks being waited on by brown folks.

Tomorrow I catch a longtail boat around the rugged coastline to Railey Beach for the weekend, and after that ... to be determined.  Meanwhile here's some pictures, and now I need to grab some shuteye.  It's been a long workday next to this swimming pool, let me tell you.

Coconut shake ... in a coconut.
