Memories of Thailand

thailand outfits 2

This morning I realized how much my short trip to Thailand impacted me. I tossed on the T-Shirt that I wore out on the water, and kicked back with a smooth cup of Sumatra coffee from my Keurig. No Sumatra is not in Thailand, but it definitely is my favorite coffee from Southeast Asia. It was just what I needed.

Like someone who has just returned from vacation, I began going through the photos of my trip. While I should have been editing (cropping, deleting, making collages), instead I just looked through them, remembering the fun, the camaraderie of camping with people that I had never met before, and the beauty of a country that I now feel compelled to revisit,

For now, I’ll just keep putting on the t-shirt and fishing pants, and fill my mug with another K-Cup of the flavor of Southeast Asia. Thank you to Cross Country Cafe for providing me with the coffee in this post, to help me linger with my travel memories now that I’m home.

Thai Iced Coffee

While I was there I enjoyed some of the sweet Thai Iced Coffee that you can buy just about everywhere (including in BAGS on the street). Here is an easy way to make it at home.
