Update from Director Pat in Thailand
Hi Andrea,
I am doing well, thank you. I have finally recovered from jet lag .. That seems to take longer and longer with every passing year! I suppose it doesn't help to be wrestling with the effects of lengthy flights, a 12 hour time difference, different food, lots of pollution (which thankfully is not a problem in the beautiful Cayman Islands), a new job placement with 40 expectant little faces ... all together that adds up to about 10 days of reduced performance for me. Now that I have recovered, I am racing around Bangkok with one of my fellow volunteers ... teaching during the day, shopping, eating, sightseeing in the afternoons and evenings. They have great public transit here - water taxis, sky train, metro, bus, tuk-tuk, taxi ... so it is very easy to get around.
All the best.
Pat
