Days go by

I have been here in Thailand for one whole week! It was last week Thursday, in the very early hours of the morning that my plane arrived in Bangkok and I was embraced by the sticky warmth that is Thailand. So much has happened over that past week. I have made many new friends and met lots of different people. I have experienced different parts of CCD and the work that they do for many different children here. I have been to 2 different christmas parties and will be going to another one tomorrow.

Although I haven't really had a proper, normal day working for CCD yet, I am beginning to get a feel for what I will be doing and what my role involves. I have been given a schedule and I know where I am each day. As there is so much going on at the moment with all the christmas parties and everything I have yet to go to all the different projects and the only places that I really have spent some time with the children are at Rainbow house and also Rachawdee girls. Both of these places are so different and the role we play in them is dramatically different also.

That's all for now, tomorrow's christmas party involves sport in the morning (all different types of thai sport) and lots of people, food and entertainment in the evening. I should be well rested for that.

xx goodnight.
