Week 1

I had been anticipating coming to Thailand for so long. So when I stepped outside of the airport, seeing the different landscape and smelling the scent of cigarette, a great feeling washed over me. I first noticed how different the 7-11 was and the large amounts of fast motorcycles going around. The first day I met a few people and had dinner with the roommate I had for the day. We went to this really fancy looking resort but the pricse of the food was still half of what it would be in the U.S. The next day we moved into the dorm and had our orientation for the program.  For the rest of the week, we did touristy things around bangkok such as visiting the temples, going to amusement park, and going to the schools orientation.
