Pad Thai

I’ve been promising pictures of our house since I moved in (February), and last week I delivered- with pictures of our toilets. Here’s a tour of the rest of the house.

Here's the front of the house (photo from Mara). We live on a very narrow street, so you can't really back up to take a better picture. It's a pretty normal townhouse in Khon Kaen. Those are our motorbikes in the driveway.

This is what you see when you walk in the house. On the left there is a small seating area with a TV, and on the right are our desks. Towards the back of the house is the kitchen. It's indoors, which is nice since many Thai kitchens are not, but the windows are only screens and not glass, so it's more like a screen porch.

Here's the same room standing in front of the kitchen. Note the three fans, there's no air-conditioning downstairs, so fans are a must.

This is our bedroom with a HUGE bed. It does have air-con.

This is our desk in the bedroom and a half-vanity/half-closet. There are no built-in closets that I've seen in Thailand (although I'm sure they exist). Most places just have small wardrobes.

Here is our other wardrobe, and a table and chair at the foot of the bed. Not very exciting, I know.





Other than the bathrooms, that's pretty much it (other than Mara's bedroom). It's comfortable, and relatively nice. Here's one final picture looking up the street from our house.
