Bangkok Feels Like Home

Hi everyone! This is going to be a super fast post from Bangkok, where we arrived only yesterday. We had three really nicely and carefully written blog posts we were SO pumped to upload for you friends and family...BUT, unfortunately our mini netbook laptop as well as Sal's camera, was stolen on an overnight train in India just this past Monday morning. Not kidding we put hours into those blog posts, telling all about our week in Italy, our four days in Egypt and much about our two weeks in India.

We are both completely fine and were never harmed, so please do not worry or be concerned. While India was fun and interesting in many ways, it was also incredibly stressful and hard for us...and being robbed while sleeping was just such a bad note to end on. I am going to post safety tips and advice as soon as I have more time to write to hopefully prevent the same thing from happening to anyone else who reads this. In short, in terms of transit, my advice (as given from two friends in Delhi) DO NOT TAKE overnight trains in India...not even 2nd class air conditioned, which is the car we were in since 1st class was not available.

We are THRILLED to be in Bangkok - a big, modern city. It is unusual for Sal and I to feel more at home in a city than in the country, but when you're abroad sometimes the more universal, diverse and convenient a place, the better!

All our love and more to come soon <3
