After the adventure of living in Bangkok, Thailand for 15 months, I met a handsome Swede and moved to Stockholm to start a new job and a new life. Now, with a new apartment, new city and new language to get used to I look forward to a whole new chapter and more adventures to share.

Dearest Urban Pilgrim,
So glad to hear you’ve arrived safely and are having, for lack of a better word, an incredibly interesting time. When in doubt, pair the peanut butter with the Philly cream cheese. That should hold you for at least a day or so. Hey, anything beats soy sauce on pancakes.
Keep up the good work and know that there’s a lot of love for you on the other side of the world.
Always,
Dentist Bear
p.s. Why is it that I don’t know a single artist that you’re currently listening to? Are they fictional musicians or just Thai?
Hi UrbanPilgirm – Thanks for dropping by to Just Cook It – really glad you like it. And also thanks for introducing me to your blog, it really is fantastic. As an aside, when you posted your comment on my blog, you put the wrong URL for your own blog. I can’t change this now but you should be able to edit your comment if you wish. I look forward to hearing more about your Thai adventures.
best,
Alex
Dear UrbanPilgrim,
glad you liked my photo. I have really enjoyed to read your blog, nice and well written observations on Thai life & society. Makes me miss the life in there…
Anyhow, would be nice to be in touch. Have a look on our (other) travel blog on maikusasi.com – we might be coming to Thailand in the coming months, or at least we hope so. There’s also a link to email.
Yours,
MaikuLian
Dear Urban Pilgrim,
My name’s Will, I’m an editor in New York City who will be relocating to Bangkok early next year. How are you?
I know you’ve only been there for a couple of months, but I was wondering if you could tell me a few things. The main thing I want to know is, is it possible to rent a very cheap apartment (under 10,000 baht) that’s located near the Sky Train and is not completely falling apart? I don’t need a view or a pool or anything like that — just working plumbing and electricity and reasonable security, please!
Also, are you hanging out with mostly expats there? Just trying to get a sense of the expat community.
Finally, what’s the language barrier like?
Thanks for your help, please feel free to email me!
Sincerely
Will
I work with your loser sister vicky!!!!!
I want her to eat all sorts of weird shit when she comes to visit.
Like the blog.
Be safe!
Lindsay, We just wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday. We posted some old photos that we found when Tory came to visit. Some were of your second birthday. If you are interested you can see them here: http://picasaweb.google.com/holmwoods/LindsayAndToryAndMelAndEd#
I am proud of your accomplishments and good luck in Bangkok and drop us a line if you get a chance. Warmest wishes and best of luck.

See you in a few weeks! Sis and Mom are packing for you. My niece and I arrive on Thanksgiving day.
Shopping at Chatuchak is planned.
You are impressive and bold – Rock the world!

Hello Urban Pilgrim,
My husband and I are about to embark next week on yet another trip to Thailand. He really wants to do video, photo, music, voiceover videos. I showed him your videos. He’s dying to know…What software do you use to create your lovely videos?
Hey,
I think your blog is just what I’m looking for. I’d love for you to guest blog on cheapoair.wordpress.com – please shoot me an email asinger@cheapoair.com for further details.
Thanks,
Aldo
I love your blog. I’ve always wanted to do what you are doing. Unfortunately, I will never have even a fraction of the money it takes. Vicarious it shall be to the end…
