Thailand

Mandatory Thai Diet: Massaman Curry over rice with copious amounts of 50 cent beers.

Results: A level of weight gain I have never been able to rid myself of.

 

Thailand marked my third trip to Asia. After two expeditions to Nepal, the lush jungles and never-ending beaches of Thailand’s southern peninsula allowed for a more relaxed photography experience.Rather than actively searching for those perfect moments, I found myself take on a more passive role, truly appreciating what was right in front of me.
