Wow! I can't believe I am off again- I leave in 10 short days for another crazy adventure. It has been a whirlwind semester upon my return from Sweden in July and I can't say the return culture-shock was easy. Like so many other travelers have experienced, it can be so hard returning to a home when your perspective on the world has changed exponentially. This semester back home was really challenging, so when an opportunity arose to take another trip abroad, I jumped at it! It was a lot of work and a constant battle to be able to financially afford another semester. I am very thankful for the scholarships that I received amounting to over $5,000. This achievement is just more evidence that if there is a will there is a way. I can't believe it's actually happening!
Here's the scoop on what you'll be reading in the next upcoming months;
Location: Chiang Mai, Thailand
Courses: Money & Banking, Comparative Political Systems, International Business Management, Buddhist Philosophy, Thai Language, Traditional Thai Massage, Thai Kickboxing, Thai Cuisine & a Thai Hill Tribe TourTravel Plans: Phuket, Bangkog & Chiang Rai, Thailand; Burma, Laos, Nepal and a final trip to India for the summer months
You'll hear all about the history, culture, religion, and surrounding areas of such a beautiful country!
Newly equipped:
The unbelievable support of my family has led me to get a new Sony Nex-F3 Camera, a Kindle Paperwhite and a MacBook Air. All which will become very much in handy for my travels!
Here are some pictures to get your excitement up-as well as mine!

Hej Hej Donielle, this is awesome, congratulations on the trip. Funny enough the American Travel writer who came and did a paddleboard course and wrote on us is also at the moment in Chiang Mai at the moment. She is doing PR for the Elephant Rescue center there. I bet she would love for you to come see her and you guys would have a lot in common.
Her blog is Dtravelsround here is a link to a story she just wrote on what not to do in Chaing Mai: http://www.dtravelsround.com/2012/12/29/things-to-do-chiang-mai/
If your interested in meeting her let me know and I can help facilitate it.
Best of luck girl,
