Heat rash and Head lice!!!!!

Well we have all been coping well with the heat considering that April is probably the hottest month here in Thailand. Gavin and Tehya both have mild heat rash on their chests and the backs of their necks. We went to a chemist yesterday and bought some mild antihistamine gel which we keep cool in [...]

Tehya’s first experience of Thailand

The Dusit Thani is truly beautiful. The room is a little worn around the edges, but only a little! The hotel staff are kind and eager to be of assistance. They are very sweet with Tehya who is loving the attention and the friendly atmosphere. The hotel is huge with 6 restaurants, bars, gym and [...]

The Journey to Bangkok

Thursday the 20th March - My last day as a Connexions PA!!!

I am so exhausted and really ready to finish work. Giving my notice in at Christmas has meant that this must have been the longest goodbye of all time. The first month dragged very slowly and although I was excited and looking forward to our leaving date, there were times when I felt a little [...]

A tattoo for Tehya

I have wanted to get a tattoo to celebrate Tehya’s birth for a long time. We went to Newquay last Friday and I popped into DNA formally Atlantic Coast Tattoo Studio. Unfortunately the earliest booking they had was in May a good while after we have left the UK. When I explained the situation they [...]

one week at work and two weeks until we go!

So here we are waiting for the off. We went online last night and paid for our travel insurance, I had started to worry that we might not get the documents through on time if we left it any later. Tehya’s insurance cost almost as much as ours which seems crazy. It feels odd to [...]

Getting ready to go!

It has been a slow process of saving money and buying the essential items we need along the way. I gave my notice (3 months) at work on Christmas Eve and we paid for our tickets in January. That was definitely the point in time when it all became more real. The trip became an [...]
