OceanicThai: Life Lessons
http://oceanicthai.blogspot.com/2012/02/life-lessons.html
American in Thailand, 14 years and counting. Sunday, February 26, 2012. I have been asked to share a couple of life-lessons from my 13 years here in Thailand. I am touched that someone has asked this thoughtful question. A Few Things I've Learned Through The Years. Being a language learner is an excellent ministry tool. Thais love to help you learn their language. Asking them to help you learn a subject in Thai will make the experience pleasant for them, and help you get better in the language. Don't foo...

http://oceanicthai.blogspot.com/2011/12/goodbye-to-private-merry-little.html
American in Thailand, 14 years and counting. Sunday, December 25, 2011. Goodbye To Private Merry Little Christmases. Christmas is a time of frantic frenzied activity within the Christian community here in Thailand. It is a time of outreach, giant neighborhood parties and trying to explain to everyone we are not celebrating the birth of Santa Claus, but in fact are celebrating the birth of Christ.

OceanicThai: Feeling Is Not Enough
http://oceanicthai.blogspot.com/2012/02/feeling-is-not-enough.html
American in Thailand, 14 years and counting. Wednesday, February 01, 2012. Feeling Is Not Enough. Compassion is a worthy feeling, so is concern, empathy, and a desire to make a difference. These, however, are only the beginning of what really matters, and that is our actions. It is not enough to feel compassion and empathy for someone who is suffering, or a people group who is suffering, there must be movement of our hands, mouths and feet to make a difference.

http://oceanicthai.blogspot.com/2013/10/body-language.html
American in Thailand, 14 years and counting. Friday, October 18, 2013. Body language and facial expressions are so important in Thailand they often trump words as to what is being communicated and believed about a person. Being sensitive to subtle body language and indirect replies will also help to avoid confusion and misunderstandings. Location: Chiang Mai, Thailand. That was fascinating.

http://oceanicthai.blogspot.com/2012/01/importance-of-showers.html
American in Thailand, 14 years and counting. Monday, January 30, 2012. The Importance of Showers. I chose to wear a skirt for my first day of volunteer work at the center. Put together, capable, clean and professional. If I wear jeans I will look sloppy and unable to function in the role I will be taking there. I will wear jeans later. I love wearing jeans, soft old ones, with a soft old t-shirt. And not so hygienic. Labels: hygiene in Thailand. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

American in Thailand, 14 years and counting. Saturday, December 28, 2013. Urban Thais put a lot of time and care into their appearance. First impressions and appearance are very important in Thailand. Thais are careful to dress appropriately and people who dress well are treated with more respect. Many expats coming to Thailand are often in the role of a teacher in some form or another. Teachers are held in high regard and Thai teachers dress very conservatively. For men, slacks with a collared shirt are...
