holydays

it is my last night in bangkok. it is effectively my last night as a "traveler". it is quite sad. in fact it is super sad. i was really scared when i was heading here. but it has been fine. and i've even had fun at times. actually i've had loads of fun. been to some really beautiful places. and some not so beautiful places. met some really great folks. and some knobs. actually i haven't met any knobs. everyone i have met has been super friendly. and unique. and special. i have had some cool parties. and plenty of time to chill and read good books. five weeks. six books. lila. the green hills of africa. shantaram. fiesta. tuesday's with morrie. shantaram counts as two books - it is over 900 pages long. but a great book. i've despaired. but i've pulled through. and i have the most awesome memories to take back. i am sad. but i shouldn't be sad. for everything is written in the soul of the world. and there shall it remain forever.

i head back to singapore tomo to catch up with pete and porto. and then fly out on friday to south africa to attend greg and gail's wedding and then my sister's wedding the following wend. then back to londres.

and remember - a wise traveler once told me - everyday is a holyday.
