I’m learning Korean again. I can’t exactly say that I tried very hard the first go-round. I took one class last summer, struggled with hangul, and procrastinated. So now it’s a new year, and I am tired of not being about to read hangul. Read more…
Welcome to the January 30, 2010 edition of destinations, dedicated to romantic destinations. I’m sorry for posting late!

Most recently, we have been kayaking around the coastline – which I really enjoyed. The view from our roomTanjung Sanctuary. The article is posted at on the way to somewhere. He says: “Over the last three days we have enjoyed relaxing in our beautiful room or on our balcony, using the gym, laying on the beach lounges and swimming in the clear and calm waters of the private beach.”

I think that Thailand is one of the most beautiful, romantic places on earth! I can see why people go there for honeymoons and beach vacations. I have tons of pictures and still more video from my trip to Thailand. Here is just a fraction of the photos. Thailand was such a beautiful place that I must have taken about 500 photos. Most of the photos that are in this post are from Koh Lanta, where I stayed at the Sayang Beach Resort during a beach vacation. Some of the photos, the ones with the bluest water are from Phi Phi. I went there to visit. I will add additional photos and post them soon! Keep checking back for updates. Have you been to Thailand or another spot that you thought was simply the most beautiful and romantic place ever? Tell me about it!
I’m back in Busan, South Korea, and I have yet some more insight about being an African American in South Korea. I have additional video and tons of photos to post from my stay in Koh Lanta Thailand. I was there for nine days. The very first day that I returned from Thailand, and I went out and about in Busan, I had a dose of reality. I was walking through the Jagalchi Market and a random Korean woman reached out and rubbed my cheek. Read more…
I went to Phi Phi in Thailand, and I have regrets! I should have taken the longtail boat tour around Phi Phi. I simply walked around the island, and although it was cool to see all the shops and see the different beaches on Phi Phi, I would have had the opportunity to capture the crystal clear water had I went on the Maya Bay boat tour.

On day 4 on my vacation in Thailand, I rode an elephant during an elephant Trek! The elephants were really friendly. If you watch the video, you will see me riding him and feeding him. There’s one part when I wipe his eye. I didn’t capture it in a close-up because someone else was taping and the whole thing caught me by surprise. I saw tears roll down the elephant’s eyes. For real. This made me feel sad, and think about the elephants in captivity instead of roaming free and safe (hopefully) in the forest. Read more…
There was a fire at the resort! Yes! I’m so serious. It was a small fire, thank God, and I witnessed it happen during breakfast. I was sitting at my table when I saw the owner of the resort doing something to one of the heated dishes. The next thing I know, there is a fire in a can on the floor. Read more…
I have been taking it easy during my beach vacation in Thailand. My days usually go like this:
Get up and walk on the beach or go straight to breakfast.
Relax in a lounge chair, listening to the waves.
Sit at an outdoor cafe, listening to music and conversation while doing some Internet surfing
Massage
Dinner on the beach
Try to decide if I am going to ride the scary looking mopeds or go snorkeling, or what around Thailand!
I thought that you’d like to see video of my Lanta resort in Thailand. I am spending my winter vacation on the beach in Koh Lanta, Thailand. A lot of English teachers who are teaching in South Korea come to visit Thailand, but I wanted to try something different than going to Phuket or Bangkok. I wanted to have easy access to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world while having a primarily relaxing vacation. I discovered that I could rent a Thailand beach bungalow for the fraction of the cost in the U.S., so that’s what I decided to do. Read more…
