Anna's Trip to Thailand
Details of my year long trip teaching Biology at Global English School
First day in Thailand

Well my group got in late last night and we wnet straight to the school which was about 45 minutes from the airport. My flights were both great. We flew on Cathay Pacific. I would sugest that airline to anyone flying to Asia. I watched a few movies and ate, then slept for about 5 ot 6 hours. It was great to be able to relax. I also slept on my flight from Hong Kong to Thailand. The meals were actually really good! I ate beef and potatos with dessert and some sides and another really good meal later on in the flight.


When we got to the school we took our bags up to the girls floor, which is the 3rd floor. I guess I'll be getting my exercise walking up and down those stairs:) Well, I really enjoy my room so far. The girl who had it before me painted it a wine red color. It is very nice. I have a good size bed, a night stand, a desk, a hutch and a dresser/closet. I've already unpacked my things and will be buying some more decorations in order to make it feel more homey! We had a good lunch that only cost me about 1 dollar. There is a small outdoorish resturant that suposidly has great cashew chicken so that is what I had. It was really good. I found the portion to be a lot smaller that  in America, but for one dollar it filled me up plesently. Later during school time, I will be able to eat school food with the other teachers. So far everything has been fine. I'm supposed to go open a bank account today. The bank is actually across the street from the school so it's not too far. Also, there is a store called the Big C, it is similar to a Walmart, it is right down the road with in walking distance, so I think some of the teachers and I will be shopping there after the bank!


We are supposed to have hot water, but I could not figure out how to use it, so I took a luke warm shower today, but it was wonderful after not showering for a couple of days because of my flights:) Well I hope to hear from some of you! Feel free to coment. I will talk to you later.
