This is the final blog from Nathan & Rachael’s adventure in Thailand and I just wanted to share a couple of brief retrospective thoughts and hopes for the future. (Sorry, nothing revelatory, deep or philosophical here)
What we’ve learnt:
- People are people wherever you go.
- We don’t always know what is best.
- Rather than getting answers and giving solutions we were left with more questions and less certainty.
- Keep smiling.
- To live life simply, healthily and with an eye on the big picture.
- To appreciate the truly a lucky country we enjoy but be humble enough to learn from other cultures.
- To support the worthy people and projects we met and became involved with.
- The south-east Asian region will find peace, a liberating and democratic government that supports all people.
As Rachael and I return to normal life we look forward to journeying through life with you, supporting each other and helping where possible.
