Night market in Jomtien

Oscar Carl Henrik

Visiting Jomtien again and took a look at the weekend night market. Again delicious food, but also clothes and lots of other stuff such as electronics and so on. I myself was looking for shoes primarily, and finally bought 3 pairs.. Also I got a couple of t-shirts and a pair of shorts. Don’t know if the clothes are of the best quality and fashion but at least it’s something new. Really happy with the shoes however.

I actually wanted to buy these shoes (the green ones) on the second hand area, but they were to small in size unfortunately

Nice pool relaxing at my friends place in Jomtien today. Maybe I’ll rent a condo too at some point as it provides a good value for money, not least in a less overheated place as Jomtien. For 16000 Baht (about 400 USD a month he gets a newly refurbished 3 room apparent with two bathrooms and a kitchen area and also a gorgeous swimming pool area free to use at any time during the day.

I also took the chance to take a look at the beach road on my way back, a very relaxed and calm place compared to the Pattaya beach road. But looked nice anyway.

Today’s dinner: Pad thai gung, deluxe

My friends left me this Sunday which means I have a little more time for work and normal everyday business now.
It’s quite nice to come to a new place, explore the surroundings, and find a nice routine for your daily life. I am now staying in a quite nice hotel located between Pattaya and Jomtien.

Today was such a perfect and relaxed day. Slept until late, worked, swam in the pool, worked again, found a great place to have dinner right down the street from the hotel.

Now it’s late but I will continue to work since I feel so good and have worked up somewhat a work flow.

Nice weekend and travel time is getting closer

Being my own barber since at least a year now. I find it to be really fun and a perfect creative challenge. Guess it started a little bit of a way to save a buck but I soon realized that I to a much higher degree ended up with with a hair cut that I liked.

I mean honestly how often do you exit the barber shop really happy with the result? 🙂 

 
 
Anyway, had a great weekend with friends and now this week the full focus is on working to comple everything that I  want to have finished before I go my trip I feel really inspired both by of the work and towards the upcoming adventure. It will be really cool to go solo on a long distance trip like this. I will meet my friends on the destination and of course there’s also the stop in Beijing.. Haha can’t really believe it yet.
