Back to THAIKEA

The last day of English camp at Chao Tai Mai School was cancelled because the Aiesecers and other volunteers needed to return to Bangkok by a certain time and were afraid that flooding would prevent this if they did not leave early this morning.

Instead, I met with the Thaikea crew and we discussed where the project is, where it is going, and what we could do to help raise needed funds. We decided to work a half day rather than at night and tomorrow we’ll return to a full day at the workshop in Thap Tawaan. Surprisingly, we had a few villagers show up today to make furniture. Hopefully, we’ll have some more to help tomorrow.

After work, I went to yoga at TVC. The class was rejuvinating. It felt so good to be doing yoga again. I’ve had a hard time practicing on my own in a house full of people, so I was thrilled to have someone lead and to be on a balcony overlooking the beautiful Khao Lak beach at sunset, enjoying yoga with a group of people who obviously share some sort of common interest with me. It is still warm enough to do yoga outside at night and we gazed up at the stars during several postures, which is how I want to do my practice from now on. I am so grateful for this experience today.
