Making Plans
March 30, 2007 | 4 Comments
Plans have a way of getting tossed out the window on contact with Thailand. That is, I never seem to bother much with them. But I do have sort of a loose idea on what I want to do when I am there. And I somehow manage to stick with that.

Up To You
March 28, 2007 | 3 Comments
Nan can be painfully shy when it comes to expressing what she wants to do. I have tried every trick in the book to convince her that I will actually be extremely happy if she have any ideas for our next weeks together in April. Her universal answer is “up to you”.

At 36, I am sort of starting to think a little bit about the future. Strange that, as I never have given much thought to it before. Always living by the moment. Tomorrow is another day etc. It is now a year since I first arrived in Asia. In 6 months my contract is finished. […]

Yesterday I committed the ultimate sin. I did not send my usual morning SMS message, and the lunchtime one never got there until late in the evening.

An Invitation

Having just picked up my ticket to Thailand to go and meet up with Nan again, I called her and told her that now I have my ticket. She was indeed a happy puppy, and the joy in her voice was something I can live on for quite a while.

For some reason Nan is totally fascinated by my left ear. I don’t know what she finds so special about it. It is an ordinary ear. I am sure because I have studied it in the mirror.

Pillow Talk
March 13, 2007 | Leave a Comment
We have all done it. Those moments of intimacy when you just lie in bed snuggled up with your loved one, trying to find a comfortable position for your arms and legs before you fall asleep with your teerak wrapped around you, while chatting away about everything including nothing.
