November in Thailand
By: Allison Walters (View Profile)
With December looming I made the best of my time left in Thailand. My last three nights
were literally 'spent' as I blew the rest of my wad at the Chaing Mai night market. Buying
bamboo place mats and big wooden bowls made me a bit lonesome for the first time all
trip. I think about the dinner parties back home and the great Thanksgiving feast I had
missed this year. There’s nothing better than little time away to make you appreciate
what lives so close. I return home with big stories to tell and a greater appreciation for my
family and friends. Speaking of big I also rode an elephant, “wow, this is cool.”

Loved your article. I don't travel, so these colorful accounts you painted with words will satisfy me for quite a while.
I've traveled alone in Thailand, too, and had many of the same experiences.
It feels good to write.
