A journey within

I am about to board to Nepal. Can’t believe this day is here and I am going to meet my parents after more than 6 years; the place that i grew up after 11 years. I wonder how the places and people might be over there.
I stayed in lounge last night in the airport. Slept for 4-5 hours. I had foot massage yesterday and today morning which was really good. In bangkok airport, I saw mostly Asian and European people. They looked more fashionable than US people.
I also found Thai people to be really friendly. They always had smile in their face.
I was chatting with this lady that was giving me foot massage. She was single mom, taking care of two sons and works 12 hours everyday. For a minute, I thought, maybe I should stop complaining my job and appreciate the life in US.

I arrived in Bangkok-Suvarnabhumi Airport around 4:06p.m. of the local time. It was a 17 hours non stop flight from New York to Bangkok. The plane goes all the way up north to Canada, Greeceland and then down south to Russia and then to Bangkok.
I met a dutch guy in the plane. He has travelled in almost all parts of the world due to his job, but fell in love with Thailand. Is Thailand such a beautiful place? I wonder. I can’t argue that their food is great, but I often hear that Thai people are really friendly. Maybe I should make my next trip to thailand. One day, I am planning to stay in a buddhist monetsary and would like to experience how monks live.
I have to stay in this airport for another 16 hours before my flight to Kathmandu, Nepal tomorrow. Looks like I have plenty of things to do here including foot massage.
I found myself surrounded by different people and feels like maybe I don’t belong here.

Its only a day left for my travel. Am I exicted? Am I nervous? Am I thrilled? I don't know. The fact of going home hasn't hit me yet. Maybe it will when I am on plane, but right now, ... [Continue reading this entry]
