About this blog

What's up everybody....justin here. For those of you that know me, this trip and expereince is right up my alley. It pairs together so many of the things in life that I love...teaching, traveling, meeting new people, creating new memories and experiences and so on. I will be off the beaten path for this trip in Phayao, Thailand...about 2 hours from Chaing-Mai and Chaing-Rai in northern thailand. It is my goal to make a difference in the lives of my students so that they might have a better life that perhaps they didnt know existed. I also hope to better myself through my study of the thai language, buddhism and possibly Muay Thai boxing. It'll be a trip to remember and certainly will not be the last i undertake.
