I moved to Thailand in 2013 at age 26, and it completely changed my life. I was just looking at some Google photos from my adventures there. I stayed in Bangkok for about 2 years and have lived in two other countries outside the U.S. since (traveled to many more) and can identify with that feeling you said is hard to describe. I'm now 37 and I was thinking of moving back to Bangkok for a year or so, but wondered what it was like now. It was one of the most fun places to live back when! Anyway, though I have found a partner in another country that I plan to settle in next year (lol, I know!) All of that being said, I'm excited to follow your adventures in BKK!

Antoinette, try and see how your body reacts to no coffee ... even caffeine free coffee has caffeine. Sometimes, our body chemistry changes, and we can no longer drink what we used to drink. It could be the cause of anxiety . Tea has caffeine also. So try to use only flavored small brand caffeine free tea. Those actually have no caffeine .

And then they were tiered like stairs from left to right, going from top to bottom. Hope this helps, stay inspirational as usual.

I too felt lonely while traveling abroad during my 3-year sabbatical but the expats and locals I've met in the cities I was visiting definitely made the experience worth while to the point where I'd do it again, now. Almost two years later.... I wonder could my issue have been related the fact that I rarely traveled domestically growing up and that I've never traveled internationally until a few years prior to my sabbatical. Do people who grew up traveling all over the world from childhood to adulthood that decides to relocate internationally have the same feelings of fear, loneliness, etc? I figured because my experience was not something of the norm in my bubble that it's why I initially struggled but for someone where traveling and living abroad is common to them.... how is their experience.
