From Chiang Mai to Surabaya

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

I returned from Thailand(via Singapore) on Friday night.
Flew back from Singapore on ValuAir. Good service and landed safe, if a little late.
I was traveling alone, and it’s always difficult being away from family.

I was in Thailand with TEFL International. We were training teachers for their TESOL (teaching English to speakers of other languages) Certificate. We were in the northern city of Chiangmai.
Chiangmai is an extremely green and beautiful city. The traffic is chaotic and never seems to let up.
The hotel was nice and the area around it had a number of good restaurants. I managed to try a number of ethnic dishes, as well as a wide-selection of international food.

I was surprised how good the Internet connection was in Thailand, and hope that the Indonesian system comes up to that level soon.

We’ve had our course in Surabaya running since 2008.
