Hello Friends!
I will be off to Thailand on August 27th! I can't believe how fast my trip is coming...so much to do! I will start with three days in Bangkok, fly to Surat Thani to explore Ang Thong National Park and Ko Samui for 4 days, then over to Ko Phi Phi for a couple days before I fly to Kuala Lumpur for my transfer to Bali. I will be in Bali 10 days for a yoga retreat, then off to explore more of Indonesia for 2 weeks before I fly home from Singapore on Oct. 3rd.
Time is going to fly! I will do my best to keep this updated with my travel adventures and some pictures.
While in Bangkok I am planning on visiting a woman named Khru Noi at her home where she helps hundreds of underprivileged children - feeding, clothing and teaching them. I will be bringing an extra bag and filling it with much needed donations such as food, books (good for learning English), toys, clothes (for all ages) and of course money.

If you would like to help me fill my bag of donations I am having people over on Monday (the 25th) around 7pm, please feel free to bring anything you think a child would enjoy. If you want to contribute but you don’t have time to get anything, I will make sure any money donated is given directly to the house for their immediate needs. (Often supplies that we can buy here are cheaper over there!) $10 is equal to 340BHT!
Updates to come :)
lots of love

so excited for your next adventure, gina! looking forward to seeing you off tonight :)
Of all the places you plan to visit, we have been to three - KL, Bangkok and the island of Ko Samui, where we risked our necks on motorcycles. You will have many unique experiences and we look forward to reading about them.
Go with God. Love from the desert.
Gina, I'm thrilled you are going to keep us posted, and I've subscribed to your feed! I'm very proud that you would try to do something good on your travels, and I think you found a very deserving place to donate needed supplies. One small example of why the world is a better place because you are in it! Have fun on your trip and don't loose your return ticket!
You touch everyone you meet, and now SE Asia will be a better place! I look forward to your updates.
Vaya Con Dios dear sister!
Bring back stuff for my classroom!
