The Ocean

A travel blog entry by joefeather

Same day, a little further down the
coast in Chonburi, was a beach called Nang Ram. This would be our
final stop of the day, and probably the highlight of the student's
entire trip. Here, the teachers all sat around a table in the shade

A travel blog entry by caiter

... Bulletin boards are, quite possibly, my least favorite thing about teaching. I am just not creative enough to make good ones. And I really don’t have the patience or arm strength to line everything up beautifully and make it fabulous.
