Blessing ceremony
This is what came to Thailand for this visit. It was a blessing ceremony and making merit to our ancestors who passed away; @ my eldest sisterโs home on February 13, 2024
Breakfast in Chiangmai ๐
Sunday morning. Having my favorite northern style noodles, Nam Ngiew, at a morning market in Chiangmai. ๐
Food Motorbike
My aunt was shopping for food from a food motorbike. The lady with her food motorbike business bought food from afternoon markets to resell especially to elderly and/pr disable people who cannot or unable to move around well.
Morning market in Sawankhaloke, my home city
I just went shopping for breakfast for my nieces and their kids who are visiting us. This is the market in my home city, Sawankhaloke. It is located about 5 miles away from my home. It is the market where small vendors come to buy food and others to re-sell in their towns. In this video, it is just a part of the market. I like this area, because vendors are still keeping the old tradition way of selling / displaying their goods.

February 12th, the night before the homeโs blessing ceremony at my eldest sisterโs house. ๐
The moment I met some of my family members in Sukhothai today. ๐ My sisters said, I am too slim; they said, eat more food!!! ๐
Yep, go ahead and blame me on my healthy food eating habits since February last year, and it somehow lower my weight down about 20lbs!!! ๐
I am sorry for having had to cancel / reschedule 103 appointments over the late January and February.
After so many flights cancellations at last minute and also without notice, flights delayed, and three attempts to leave the U.S since on Saturday 20th; finally I could leave Minnesota for Thailand on Monday 22nd and arrived Thailand today on Wednesday 24th. I am so exhausted now and about to go to bed. ๐ตโ๐ซ
During this visit, I hope to share with you a bit about my house and some of our activities here in Thailand. ๐

Yep, I can massage, and I can shoot bow and arrow too. ๐ # This afternoon at Northfield Archery Range

#dundasoktoberfest2023
I finished work early and went to downtown our town to enjoy the last Summer Concert Series 2023
Working on accounting.
I have a last minute cancellation this morning, and no ones replace this spot. Even though I am not massaging people, I still have to work on accounting, and do daily laundry at the end of the day. ๐ค
People often ask me how hot it is in Thailand. I will say, it is extremly hot for people who just came from Minnesota and just arrived in Thailand. It probably takes about a week to get used to the temperature over there. I took this video two days after I arrived there, July 7, 2023, and was at my home in Sukhothai. The temperature at that day was 97 degrees, but together with humidity, it felt like 105 or so.
At my home in Thailand, this is my favorite spot; back door balcony. I like to sit there in the evening and eating fruits while looking at those tall trees and birds. And,,,, this sound weird, but many of you know that I like to listen to jazz music, so, yes, I turn on my jazz night music while enjoying my fruits at the balcony too. ๐ Sometime in winter, I could see kites flying in the air not too far away.
Yes, Your massage therapist is THAI!! ๐ She eats spicy food! ๐๐ Sunday night, I made เธเธฑเธเนเธเนเธเนเธเนเนเธชเนเธซเธเนเธญเนเธกเนเธเธญเธ Spicy chicken with bamboo shoot. Chicken thigh with bamboo shoot (sour), hot red curry paste, green peppercorn, strip galingale, red chili pepper, kaffir lime leaf, and coconut milk. Seasoning with fish sauce.

Yesterday, I received a 1.5 hrs Thai massage from blind massage therapist in my hometown, Sawankhaloke, Sukhothai. ๐๐๐
Luyen (my husband) is waterproofing my foot bath bowl. He will do 4 coates. It has to wait a few days before I can use it. Will see which client will be the first one who use the bowl. It could be you! ๐
Shopping at a farmer market near my hometown today. ๐ If you can understand Thai language, you probably will hear our dialect language in the videos, which it is believed to be the original Thai language. ๐
Note: Sukhothai province (my hometown) is the first capital of Thailand.
Pi Moo, my third sister is making Thai style banana chips. ๐
