    Weed! 

    So I jump off the motorbike and her dad walks up to me and hands me a bunch of weed. Welcome to Issan.

    I still believe 

    And me, I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it’s not some place you can look for, ’cause it’s not where you go. It’s how you feel for a moment in your life when you’re a part of something, and if you find that moment… it lasts forever…

    Everything 

    The one thing you learn living in Thailand is to just get rid of the phrase, “What could possibly go wrong?”  Believe me, if it can go wrong it will.

    Kids will be kids 

    I don’t care how childish it sounds, I still giggle when a girl tells me her name is “Porn.”

    I love you [INSERT NAME HERE] 

    You ever notice that when Thai girls are on Facebook they never mention names? Like, “I miss you so much, my love,” or “Can’t wait until you get back.” You can’t tell me there’s not a reason they keep everything generic.

    My Problem With Thailand 

    My problem with Thailand is that I love all of the Thai people I know but I hate everyone else.

    You Can’t Help It 

    I don’t like talking bad about Thai people but Thai people keep doing bad things.
