D+1

Here it is, sweat, sweat, air conditionned, sweat, sweat, sweat, air conditionned so that I'm almost cold, sweat, humm sweat again... ahh night is coming, maybe it'll get a little bit fresher, actually no so sweat, sweat and sweat.

It's pretty hot and wet and polluted here. The air is so thick that you feel like you can touch it.
After a long non-spleepy journey, I arrive in Bangkok on time, get my luguage, talk and laught with the taxi driver (that I thought he was speaking thai to me, but actually it was just his english which was with a strong accent!). I reach the university, find elsa after a couple of student kindly showing me the way, and my day starts.
From Chinatown where you hear "falang, falang" (which means "white stranger") all the time, to the most touristic place in Khaosan, to a nice restaurant, going through the heavy traffic, avoiding the cockroach (les cafards) in the toilets (bigger than my thumb these bastards!), meeting some exchange students who are living here for a year, gettings beers and heading back to Elsa's place in Taxi with a sudden and very heavy rain. That's it, only few hours here but I'm already quite into it.

Tomorrow we're going to a close beach for the week end (Kho Samuet), so I should eventually get some sleep in order to wake up early.

Good night!

    Elsa is actually saying that I'm probably the only french guy saying "Zoubi", so that it's totally obvious you learnt it from me..
    I'll write more tomorrow or in the next days.
