I’m already taking note of things I will miss about Thailand. Here’s what I have so far…

1. BTS Sky Train - the most convenient way to travel around the city

2. Cheap Iced Coffee - from my favorite “suking tindahan”, Life Coffee at BTS Ploenchit Station, whose attendant already starts making my coffee once she sees me coming

3. Asia Herb Association - best massages in town

4. Koh Samed - my favorite ever quick beach destination

5. Cheap Belgian Waffles - Jianna’s and my favorite afternoon snack

6. Authentic Thai Food - at no less than the friendly neighborhood “carinderias” and push carts (khao man gai, roti, moo ping, gai yang, pad thai, etc.)

7. Basilico - my favorite Italian restaurant with the kid-friendliest staff

8. Siam Paragon - Jianna’s playground and we are Siam Paragon’s mall rats

9. Siam Square - my current favorite ”day-off” destination. I love its lively atmosphere.

10. Chatuchak (JJ) Market- especially the houseware/plates section. I’m already missing it now as I haven’t been there in a really long time.

Needless to say of course, I’ll be missing all the friends we’ve made here. I’m sure I’ll be adding more to the list as the months go. Awww, how can I ever leave this place, my home away from home?
