the big step

So, it’s finally for sure.

I’m moving to Thailand. Bangkok. For two years. It’s actually so big that it deserves capital letters.

BANGKOK. TWO YEARS.

I got the message yesterday, both me and my boyfriend is accepted as students at Chulalongcorn University. So from November on, we will be master students at an international program called Southeast Asian studies.

In to weeks we’re on our way, for vacation, for apartment-hunt, for fun.

I guess it feels both exciting and scary, two years is a long time.

But most of all, I can’t wait.

To live in a city that never falls a sleep. Lights. People. Food. To live by the river with a pool in my backyard. Or on the roof. Travel, to the east, to the south. Beach. Sun. Water.

No, I can’t wait.
