So it's been a looooooooooong time since I've written on here. I was trying to change over to a different website. Vox has somethings that are problematic) but I never finished that.
Here's a short paragraph I wrote that each of the interns wrote up for the Project 153 newsletter and I've also put up a lot of pictures on my Flicr site.
It's hard to believe I've spent nearly a whole semester on the other side of the world from everything I've ever known. Time has certainly flown by, but what's even harder for me to believe is how much Thailand feels like home
now. I find myself automatically going to the passenger side of a car to drive it. I think certain things in Thai. When we took a trip to Cambodia last month (where they use US dollars) I found myself needing to calculate how much things cost in Thai baht. I think the biggest thing that has helped produce this feeling of home and love for Thai culture has been the sense of family at the various churches. I'm excited about all that the Lord is teaching me and I know that if there's only one thing I take away from Thailand it will be the relationships I have with all the people here in Chiang Mai. My Thai family.
