Backpacking... a skill not yet acquired!


OK so I've been in Thailand for 4 days and one evening now, I've been out practically every night and every place that I am taken to, is more beautiful and more swanky then the previous.

Bangkok is a city where you will never tire of going out. The only minor problem is, that I opted out of (not by choice but by law of backpack) packing heels. I went out the other night to a very cool club and for the first time in my life I was wearing flat shoes out - smart black flip flops no less!! It was horrible - how could I dance in flip flops? :) So what did I do? I got up the next morning and I thought well that's enough stretching of my Achilles tendons and I went ahead and bought the swankiest pair of heels hehehe now the problem is ...how oh how are they going to fit into my already full backpack. Also this is my last day 'In the city!!!! - but surely they'll be parties on the beach, heels required? One's gotto laugh! ....and here they are:





Our departure to the beach has been delayed till tomorrow. We are now flying to Phuket. The photo shoot is also tomorrow and this will include the very beautiful and glamorous Maureen and a couple of other models and a local celebrity (singer/actress). So all very exciting.
Next on the agenda is to head off to Baan Talae Nork nr Ranong and opposite Myanmar (Burma) to work on a marine conservation project with Turtles for two weeks. I am set to leave Phuket on Saturday morning and this is place is remote so they have one satellite internet set up for 20 people!! So I may not be on line too often :)


A Big Thank You for all the emails I've received. Pls also feel free to use this blog to post comments. Catch u l8r
