Off to Myanmar

Allora, sono le 3 la mattina e devo alzarmi alle 6 per andare in volo a Myanmar!! Non ci credo... Boh coninuero in tedesco, se no, non ce lo faccio mai finire la storia...;-)

Ein Tag voller Ereignisse! Zuerst nach langem Schlaf aufgestanden und Kaffee mit den Maedels hier von der Unterkunft geschluerft! Dann mit Adi und seinem Kumpel zum Mittagessen verabredet. Das Menue zu lesen war die erste Herausforderung da es an einem Strassenstand war den mir das Maedel hier empfohlen hatte. Hab dann einfach mal auf Empfehlung von ihr Suk Khi (oder so aehnlich) bestellt was sich dann als sher wuerzige heisse Thailaendische Fischsuppe herausstellte!
Frisch gestaerkt habe ich dann heute wohl alle Transportmittel durchprobiert, die es hier in Bankok gibt. Transportiert wird entweder per Boottaxi, Skytrain (futuristische Hochbahn), Bus, Taxi oder Tuk Tuk (dreiraedrige Motorraeder). Die ersten drei hatten mich in die Innenstadt zum Elektronikparadies schlechthin transportiert! Auf 5 Stockwerken alles was das Elektronikherz begehrt!

After a little stopover at KHao San where I booked my flight to myanmar I shopped some clothes for the evening and got dressed and ready for the Bed Supper Club!! Supposedly the hippest in club in Bankok!! Running late (as always ;-) I missed out on public transport so I bargained a Tuk Tuk driver down to 80 baht to drive me to David. After a 'stormy' ride between horning cars and yelling drivers, I arrived full of dust but safely at his place (wuhuuu, Thai drivers must have learnt from Roman motorino drivers...) He welcomed me with Jenny, a friend friend of his working at the UN in Bankok, and some delicious Thai Food, after which we headed off to the famous Supper Club! And you didn't promise too much Dave ;-) cool spot.
Well, then I will catch my remaining 2 hours of sleep now. I will be offline for the next 3 weeks, since internet access in Myanmar is restricted and the last ten days I will be meditating in a temple, so no communication at all... but stay tuned on the beginning of December and I'll be back with a summary!! cheers to all.

Un abbraccio a tutti, e a Dicembre!!

Edible insects from Thailand

Boriiis!! I just came across this webpage http://thaibugs.com/edible%20insects.htm about Thaibugs and so I thought of you being forced to eat larvae... but I guess you didn't stay long enough in Thailand to try these delicacies ;-))

This weblog is great and I can't wait to see your Myanmar pictures. Today is a sunny day here in Rome, and reading your "diary" while looking at the blue sky outside makes me feel so far away from... this desk!!!

Ciao bello! Have fun,
un bacio
