The Hungarian Padthai

  This story started more than a year ago. I hardly mentioned it to anyone (only nowadays start to open up about it), first, because I don't like to be in the spotlight, second, because I rarely think that I'm good at something (which basically has to do with the first one: that's the reason I don't like to be in the spotlight).  Anyway, one day as I was aimlessly walking up and down the streets in Saraburi, I discovered the music school. I learnt piano for about ten years. I decided that it was enough for me and I needed a different challenge. I knew that I needed to do something, mostly for my mental health, and anyway, all the time we learn something new, it's good for us, isn't it? As I entered the KPN Saraburi building, I saw a saxophone. I wanted to try out. Not because I had always wanted to try it, just, you know, for something, for some fun. To test me, and my limits.  I never forget the first moment, as I sat down. I got a free class to start with beca...

Today I've had my best trip ever! :-)  I don't even know where to start! :-) So, I decided that during the 4-day holiday, I'll do something different - other than Ayutthaya. Yes, Ayutthaya is close but I always go there and it's not that I'm getting tired of the old temple ruins (will I ever?) but I wanted to see something different and surely, there are other things as nice as that nearby, as well. So I looked for places within a 100 km circle and that's how I found Suphan Buri and its museum: Dragon Descendants Museum! (PS: if you live in Thailand or planning to come here before the 31st of December, the museum has reduced prices until the last day of this year. So hurry up! It's REALLY worth it! :-D ). Needless to say, I was a bit tense during the bus ride because I got the information that it takes approximately only 1 and a half hours to get there. Apparently, the van took 2,5 hours! So from now on, I'll know that I always have to add an extra hour ...

  After a couple of weeks, it was time to give another chance to Ayutthaya. I realized by now that in Thailand I have to lead a somewhat peculiar life - of two lives, instead. From Monday to Friday, I'm a teacher and - as W. calls me "a businesswoman" - focused on her tasks. On Saturday, Sunday, a tourist must come out from me who follows the flow, and explores the cities and everything - and most of all, doesn't get disappointed or upset by the lack of the routine. This being sad, all my evening duties should be cancelled or modified, otherwise, I can easily find myself in an upset position, again.  Enough of the circtumstances, I decided that I want to go back to Ayutthaya again and visit some more of the ancient temples. I decided on my budget too, and put +300 baht in my backpack thinking that it should be enough. I prepared my map, my GoPro camera, some snacks, food, and water, too then I set out.  The bus trip was all familiar already and I even recognized Ayutt...
