White Guy in Asia (Part Duex)

My hat goes off to KIAsia and the Kenan Institute in Chapel Hill. My apartment is located in downtown Bangkok and is more than I could have imagined. Lingmei told me that we would be living like kings. I expected nice, but not this nice. Marble, new furniture, a new tv, and high-speed internet access right in my room will certainly make this a tough trip.

Yesterday ended up as a 36 hour long day. The 18 hour flight from LAX to BKK stopped at the airport built on a man made island in Osaka, Japan. The Japanese engineering was very impressive. From there, the Thai Airways flight spent 5 more hours in the air to make it to Bangkok. Needless to say, when I finally arrived in Bangkok, I was exhausted.

Right now, Tracy from KIAsia is on her way over here to pick me up and take me to my first day at Puumsoft.

Cheers,
