Getting Ready for Thailand

During my winter break, most of my family and friends asked if I was ready for Thailand. My answer was always yes but now that I'm less than 24 hours away from getting on the plane for Thailand, I'm nervous but excited! I'm afraid of the long plane ride and the spicy food but I'm excited for the adventures! I work with Karen students at Hamline and I see them as my kids. Many of them are refugees from Thailand and I'm excited to see where they are from. I hope it will be a moving experience. I hope to push myself out of my comfort zone and try new things (especially food) as I explore this amazing country over the next 19 days.
