Adventure 2 - South East Asia
About this blog
I can't quite believe I am doing this again! When I got home earlier this year, I realised how much I had loved travelling, how alive I felt whilst on the road, and how I might never have this opportunity and freedom again. So, my resolve weakened and the plan has developed... This trip is really in 3 parts. First I'm off to Thailand, and my daughter, Danielle, is joining me for this part of the adventure. 10 days in Bangkok and Phuket, with lots of seeing the sights, diving, snorkelling and riding elephants is the plan! Then I'm off to a training centre in the hills behind Chiang Mai to do a 4 week intensive CELTA course (it's not all fun :(). This should enable me to teach English to foreign students, and hopefully to get work in one of Bourenmouth's many language colleges. I'm told this is very a intensive and stressful course , so I'm not sure what to expect of this, but the centre looks amazing, and I'm hoping to have some time to relax there too. Then I'm joining an Intrepid Travel group tour of Cambodia and Vietnam for 3 weeks. Feeling very excited and hoping this trip will be as amazing as my first one!
