Tired in Thailand

Our first day in Thailand has been a slow and relaxing one. We decided not to plan anything in today because we knew we would be very jet lagged. We are exhausted. So we laid around and relaxed in the morning before we got ready to explore the surrrounding town. We walked along the busy road, motorbikes whizzing past, to a local market which sold fruits and veggies. It was super hot but it felt lovely.

We came across a fruit stall with a lovely woman where we bought a bunch of fruit. We already had some and it's all delicious. We bought some apples but also some fruits that I've never seen before. I like to try new things in other countries.

Later in the evening we met up with my friend to have dinner. The three of us piled onto one motorbike and off we went! What a sight that was. Dinner with my friend, her boyfriend, Ty and I was fun catching up and eating good food. It is nice to know someone when you visit another place. They know all the good places to go!

Tomorrow is going to be more relaxing. Ty is going to learn how to drive the motorbike and we want to hit up a beach and watch the sunset. Should be a good time.

The Cake Fairy

Today was a pretty standard weekend here in PA. I dont do much but hope that its nice out so I can go for a walk and explore on my own, but the sun didnt come shining through my window this morning to wake me up. I slept in. After a few hours of lounging around watching youtube videos about history, I asked Cassie if she wanted to explore the town. We decided to take a visit to a local winery/brewery, Stone & Key Cellars, to do some tastings. They had quite the spread of things to taste and we were overwhelmed! Fruit wines and your typical whites and reds, cider and mede! I started out with some of the red fruit wines and Cassie with the white fruits. They were all a bit sweet for me so I moved right into the bold reds. We got four tastings each and shared our tastes but also, the bartender was super cool and gave us more tastings of whatever he wanted! He was talking to us about the local area and what breweries to check out next in our exploration of Pennsylvania. Going to ...

What Can YOU Do? Eight Simple Changes.

If you're like me, all of the news about our environmental problems has been a bit overwhelming over the last week. The Amazon burning has been very hard to wrap my head around and I've been wondering what I can do to help. I wanted to create an updated version of one of my favorite blogs "Life Hacks: The Easy Environmentalist" ( https://everydaymoad.blogspot.com/2014/12/life-hacks-easy-environmentalist.html ) to include some new things that Ive learned over the last 4 years! I don't want to be preachy, I just want to empower you to learn and make some simple switches that can have a HUGE impact. 1) Bamboo toothbrush I myself was VERY skeptical. Put wood in my mouth? Uh... But after recently making the switch, I'm very happy when I brush my teeth knowing that plastic won't end up in the ocean. It's such a small thing that most of us don't even think about but has a large impact. Here is my toothbrush that I liked:  https://givemethedirt.com/prod...

Quarantine Day: 6+?

This morning I woke up before the sun and taught some kiddos English. I had all my favorite students today which makes getting up early worth it. Then I had my morning computer time and went on a deep dive into this Facebook group called "House Plant Hobbyist". Its seriously the best group on FB ever. Lots of people post about plants, literally anything about plants and everyone in the group is so supportive and positive. I love it. It makes me happy. I probably spent about 45 minutes just looking at plants and posting suggestions and comments... Yoga time was next. I wanted to get out before the sun took up the backyard space. Theres a nice concrete patch thats perfect for my mat. It was in the shade for my whole practice! I did a long and slow flow and felt super calm and connected after. Not to mention all the great music that they play through that app (Down dog). Its a free membership until May for anyone interested! Ty and our roommate decided they needed to get s...
