Goodbye, Thailand

           
ลา! รักคุณ!

          Thailand has been an amazing, inspiring, challenging, frustrating, amusing, confusing, delightful, infuriating, hilarious, boring, interesting, sad and happy experience! After three semesters, one year and three months, I have decided to leave Thailand to explore new opportunities.

          Tomorrow I will fly to Bangkok and from there to Madrid. I'm excited, but also nervous and a bit nostalgic. I know that I will miss this town and think of it often!

          Kok Sri Suphan (Kok Srisuphan/Kok Srisupan/Khok Sri Suphan/Khok Srisuphan/Khok Srisupan/Koksrisupan/Koksrisuphan/Khoksriuphan/or however you spell it) will always be in my heart! :)

          I'm glad I came here and I hope to come back some day. Thailand is a beautiful country full of friendly, kind and wonderful people. I recommend visiting or working here to anyone looking for a truly unique experience. Thailand isn't really like any other country I've been to. It's one of a kind!

          I will really miss my students a lot! I wish you all the best as you continue your studies or graduate and start a new chapter of your life.

          To the teachers of Romklao School, thank you for your continued help and support. So many of you were so kind to me! I want to thank you all for making Romklao a great school!

          Goodbye, Thailand! I will never forget you!

          xoxo
          Lolo

Dress Code for Female Teachers in Thailand

Since I am a female teacher, I must wear a skirt to work every day. Now, if you’re a feisty feminist like myself, you probably do not fancy this at all. That being said, I have gotten used to it. Although the dress code certainly isn’t my favourite thing about teaching in Thailand, I do recommend the experience overall, despite that. To help you understand what women can and cannot wear while teaching in Thailand, I will show you some of the outfits I wear to the school. However, please remember that each school will be different. I have a feeling my school is a bit more lenient because we are in a rural area. As you can see, I wore almost the same thing every day during the year of mourning. English teacher in Thailand wearing a long-sleeved blue button-up shirt and a shin-length black skirt. If you look closely you can see that I am wearing suspenders, a long-sleeved, light blue button-up, a long, black A-line skirt with single chevron-strip
