Bangkok Wrap-Up


All ten ETAs reunited in Bangkok for wrap-up sessions on Friday and Monday. It was a blast seeing everyone again and swapping stories. Our discussions helped put the experience into perspective. We all agreed that it will be interesting to see how many of our new-found Thai ways stick once we're fully immersed in western culture once again. On Friday evening, we went to a nice dinner at the Royal Turf Club. Though we had a lovely view overlooking the racetrack and golf course, it started to rain shortly after we arrived. We tucked our table into a corner under some eaves and managed to have a nice meal, complete with baked duck tongue. Fellow ETA Katie and I even rocked out and impressed some newly-elected Thai officials with our karaoke skills. Over the weekend, I squeezed in two final massages before packing my bags and heading to the airport.
