Sawadee!
We were at Tianna enjoying the sunset along the Ping river not that long ago. It feels like the spicy food we had has just started to leave our palettes of the delicious burn from all the amazing Thai dishes we had. Hopefully you have not forgotten the lotus pose and caught yourself wai – ing from time to time. Speaking of Wa, our Thai staff is missing you extremely as are we all. You must be in school or even college for some of you. Let this letter be something to remind you of all the fun time you had at GLA Thailand.
Session two was a whirlwind of delight and excitement! Starting with week one of amazing insightful cultural activities that started with a city tour and ending with playing in the jungle with majestic elephants. Then week two, you all taught the adorable Thai students at our schools. What an exemplary job you all did. Those students will never forget the experience you gave them. Hopefully you can look back on those lessons with the fondness of memories and use it as a lesson for your futures, spring boarding you to great heights in life.
Ideally you are in your nice and cozy elephant pants reading this letter in a cool dry place. The weather was always a challenge for us, being rain or the unrelenting heat, it made us stronger as a group. The memories you should look back on with fondness will always be yours to cherish. Be it singing in the vans or late night talks at bed checks, those will always be yours to look back upon. May a smile be close by when you thinking about our time together in Chiang Mai.
Making spring rolls and kai soi at the cooking school our very first full day together.
The elephants! The Elephants! THE ELEPHANTS!
Remember the crazy long walking street market with countless stands to buy our amazing souvenirs and gifts for our loved ones.
Tianna in all its glory, from the pool to the dining area, our little oasis in the middle of the jungle. Eating breakfast and dinner next to the Ping river.
Ziplining through the jungle.
Teaching those adorable little students.
From all of your GLA Staff members,
Thank you for such a memorable Session!!
