We'll be leaving for Argentina in a few months where we'll be serving as church planters. My hubby has been an associate pastor at our church for 11 years and in the middle of that we spent one year in Uganda, East Africa, filling in for missionaries on furlough. Gave us a thirst to *do* missions full-time. Can appreciate your struggles with the language and adjusting to a different culture, and will pray for you. Have always enjoyed time spent getting to know missionaries. Love to hear their stories of how God has directed them in their missionary *adventure* :-) Found your blog recently and have enjoyed following it.

Everything you posted about reminded me of my time in Bangkok. I totally agree with you... Bangkok is huge!!! The missionary I stayed with navigated the streets as if it wasn't a problem, but I got so turned around:o). I am planning on going back to Thailand this summer (Lord willing!) and hope during my year stay to make it up to Chiang Mai. But what you wrote really is true. Thanks for sharing your heart.

I think it will be neat for us as a family to see what life, real missionary life, in Thailand is like. (We enjoy Thai food, too.) May the Lord bless your work there in Thailand.

I found our contest too late, but I still wanted to leave a comment b/c I work in Laos. I have been there for 4 years but am in the states right now until May. I have been to Chiang Mai 5 times and I love it! Maybe we can be blog friends. :) Hey! I found our contest too late, but I still wanted to leave a comment b/c I work in Laos.

I grew up as an MK in Irain Jaya, Indonesia. I got to briefly stopover in Thailand once. I am 30-something woman now with four kids of my own, but the memories are still vibrant in my mind. My parents are still involved in full-time missions. God bless your work. Now that I know where you "live" I will look forward to reading your notes.
