Thai Travel Tales

all about my volunteer experiences at Baan Dada Children's Home in Huay Ma Lai village, western Kanchanaburi, Thailand. Four months of fun with 41 kids, a herd of dairy goats, and a wonderful staff of women and men who make me feel right at home., particularly the ever-inspiring, Dada Ricardo Zoleta.

Thai Munch Hunch

Our Thai adventures wouldn't be complete without tasting lime-soaked, spiced-up Thai cuisine!

Fiona is constantly on a 'munch hunch', some of which have included:

various skewered meat, including pork satay
fried squid
banana roti
fresh pineapple, watermelon, pomelo, litchee, coconut, rambutan, dragonfruit
bubble tea (it's everywhere)
custard pumpkin in a shell
thai-style herb sausages
spicy papaya salad
crumbly catfish salad which seemed to lack the fish part
red, green, and yellow curries
massaman curry
sticky rice

Tom Yam soup
padthai!

I'm sticking to my vege diet, but am quite entertained by the pushcarts filled with fresh fruit, fried banana, cold fruit shakes, and choco crepes that seem to appear around every corner.

so far, we're avoiding the:
fried beetles
snakes

fish kidney curry

with more yum to come!
