Leaving Thailand

Leaving Thailand
Hello again everyone. Well the time is almost upon me. I finished work today, my last day teaching in Thailand! It was a strange day – only two contact hours instead of the usual four on a Friday – this was because it was ‘Thai Language’ day and many of the students were involved in activities in the afternoon.
I don’t feel as though anything has truly sunk in yet. I still don’t really feel like I am leaving. This in itself is surprising given the amount of leaving parties I seem to have had!!
I think that it will begin to seem more real tomorrow, when people are coming to collect furniture they have bought from me. An empty house is sure to help it all sink in!!
Anyhow, this weekend is mostly devoted to cleaning and lifting and shifting. On Monday I have some last minute stuff to sort out (including changing my money into Euros) and then Tuesday is airport day. The school minibus is driving me, and what seems like half the school, to the airport. Coming to see me off are Penny, Jill, Ajarn Charawee, Ajarn Pannapa, Ajarn Joom and Ajarn Siriwan. I am not looking forward to the good byes at all.
Ah well – always look forward eh. End of one chapter, beginning of another. I can’t wait to see my family and also friends that are coming out to France. Then it is off to sunny Spain.
I will update this blog when I get home, but in the meantime Chok Dee Na Kha! (good luck to you!)
Love
Laus
