Balancing teaching with travel opportunities

The struggle to find time to explore

By the time the weekend arrives, the thought of packing a bag and setting off on a trip can seem exhausting. Instead, many teachers opt to rest, catch up on errands, or simply unwind at home.


A long weekend in Chantaburi

A trip to one of Thailand's best kept secrets

About four months ago, I wrote a blog about my first ever visit to Chantaburi province but we were left with little time to explore the area, save for a small stretch of the coastline. However, we loved what we saw. We promised ourselves we would return on our own - just the two of us, the car and the open road - at the very first opportunity.
