What's for dinner?

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
I have always been a little choosy about what food I eat. I was raised almost entirely on Italian cooking – few ingredients, simple dishes, eaten when foods are in season – but I am American, after all, so despite my mom’s best efforts, I still crave disgusting delights like Taco Bell or Burge...

Bhutan-tastic!

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
Both Alex and I have wanted to go to Bhutan for many years. I think we first heard about this little landlocked country in the foothills of the Himalayas while we were living in Munich, and it was back then that we decided we would have to go. Someday. Amazingly enough, someday happened a whole lot...

Stranded?

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
This has been an interesting week. On Tuesday, the People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD), began protesting at Bangkok’s international airport, Suvarnabhumi, which resulted in the closure of the airport when they “stormed” the airport control towers and stopped allowing planes in and out. It...

Sunset Over Bangkok

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
Today begins our three week semester break! We started celebrating in style last night with a hi so (a cute Thai nickname for “high society) evening of drinks at the Banyan Tree’s Vertigo, dubbed the highest open-air bar in southeast Asia, and dinner at the Suan Lum night bazaar. We arrived jus...

A Patron of the Arts?

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
Over the last few years Alex and I have been working on collecting art, specifically paintings, on our travels. Nothing fancy, but Alex now likes to refer to me (sarcastically) as a “patron of the arts.” Whenever we’re on a holiday, we tend to look for paintings by local artists as our souveni...

The World of International Schools

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
When I tell people back home in the US that I’m teaching in Thailand, they usually assume I teach English to Thai children. When I try to explain by saying “no, I teach at an international school”, I’m often met with a blank stare. Understandable enough – before moving overseas, I never r...

The Next Level of Luxury

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
Always in search of the perfect beach, Alex and I splurged on two fabulous beach holidays this summer. Ironically, what I realized is that while I do love looking at the beautiful sea, I much prefer swimming in the chlorinated pool. No pesky sand to get all over everything, no sticky salt left behi...

You Just Know

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
I don’t know about you, but when I arrive in a new country or city I just know if I could live there or not. I knew about Florence, I knew about Munich, I knew about Bangkok, and now I just know about Japan. I’ve wanted to visit Japan for a looong time, but for some reason I never managed to or...

The Secret City

super k. posted an article on - Dec 31, 1969, 7:00 pm
One of my favorite things about having visitors is doing all of the “touristy” things I never seem to find time to do on an average weekend in the city. One of the things I had really been wanting to do was take a boat tour of the canals in Thonburi (across the river from Bangkok). Despite all t...
