When Paradise turns into a challenge
Welcome to paradise, I must say. Ants, beetles, and lizards that keep you awake and a humid heat that hits you hard. In short, the past few days have been a bit crazy. ...

Our everyday life as a travel mom in Asia.
In the mornings, the little one is usually awake before me, babbling away. I get up and open our bungalow door, enjoying the fresh morning air. I quickly go to the bathroom, change diapers, and crawl back into bed.
The view, surrounded by greenery. Butterflies dancing in front of my balcony. Bird sounds and motorcycles passing by below.
Yes, I take my time. Because having a little human being next to me is quite a miracle.
While the Thais are already out and about early, even though most shops don't open until between 9am and 10am. There's no real siesta life here either. They just do it however they feel like it.
After that, I roll out of bed onto the floor and do my sun salutations. After a morning walk, breastfeeding, and a
Buddha bowl (organic, fresh food for body and soul. Who can resist that) for lunch, we take a sweet siesta.

I sort the clothes that need to be washed and prepare the bottle for filling with water.
In town, I can fill a washing machine for 20B and simply hang the clothes at home to dry.
For water, there's the 'osmosis', where you put money in and fill your bottle with water. Well, you probably shouldn't throw too much money in, because the bottle fills up in no time and the water doesn't stop.
In the evening, after dinner, I put the little one to bed and study for my training, write for the blog, and start looking for summer jobs in Switzerland.
I answer a few more emails and then fall tired into bed.
Somehow every day is the same and yet so different.
I never know what will happen the next day, who we will meet, where we will eat, what we will eat, what I will exactly do.
Every day is an adventure in itself.
