Thailand, my new home away from home...

How could I not go to Thailand when its only 400.00 round trip to Bangkok... Hell yeah.. Winning.... One reason why I took the job in China just so I can travel. Thailand is beyond amazing. The place is beautiful and so peaceful. There I became centered and even closer to God. I went to Buddha temples where I just sat there and mediated. I'm actually Catholic but mediation has helped me TREMENDOUSLY. Just sit there and listen to my higher power's voice has led me to where I am. Not to mention parties in Bangkok are never ending. You meet people from all over the country and the food is delicious. The people are soo nice. They bow to you when they say hello, thank you and goodbye. You take your shoes off every time you walk inside somewhere. Def going to make a yearly trip. If you are going through anything and just need time to think and center yourself, Thailand is that place. After Bangkok, I went to Koh Phangan which is an island where the famous Full Moon party is. Its the biggest beach party in the world and occurs every full moon. Never see nothing like it. From working in the music industry for 5 years I've been to great parties but NOTHING like this. I partied until like 10 am. Everyone is happy and friendly. No fights, drama, etc.  On my last day I just stared at the beach and cried. It was tears of thankfulness. Honestly, I don't even really understand how a girl from Chicago that just a teacher has made it on the other side of the world. Actually, I do, God is making my steps, I'm just following them. Thailand changed my life.  Pictures are coming!!!

My apologies....

Some of you may know that I recently took the best vacation of my life all by myself. I went to Thailand. That place is simply amazing. From the food, to the people, to the beautiful secenary. I miss it already. I spent about two weeks there. I meditated, partied, tanned, etc. While I was there I met a guy from England. We both were having breakfast and just started to talk. I'm not a religious person. I don't go around quoting bible verses and trying to convert everyone. Infact, the thing I can't stand is a Jesus Freak that goes around judging people because they have been saved for 5 mins. I'm spiritual. I believe that everyone comes into your life for a reason. I learned alot from that man in our 10 min conversation. Somehow we got on the topic on gifts and as humans it is our duty to share our gifts with other people. The purpose of life is to be inspired and to inspire other people. To make a long story short. I have been selfish. I have the opportunity to travel the world and its my duty as a human being to share my experiences. I want to inspire other people to be fearless and follow their dreams like I did. When you travel not only do you learn about other people but you grow as person. For the ones who cannot travel, I want you to feel like you were with me. Me posting pics on instagram is not enough. So again my apologies. I will put 100 percent into sharing my experiences with you.
