Movin' On Up (Thailand 2013)

Movin' on up to the seventh floor, that is.

One event this month was making the move to an apartment complex next to our school. I appreciated living in an apartment on campus like most of my first year coworkers but now that our first year is near an end, we need to make room for next year's new staff. Admittedly, I wasn't excited about making another move but now that I'm in my new apartment, I'm glad it's a done deal!




As I joked with a coworker today, one of the down-sides to my move is that my commute has tripled at the beginning and end of the work day. Instead of a one minute walk to the front doors of the school, I now have a three minute walk. I guess I'll have to get up earlier in the morning to account for the added (foot) traffic =)




It was nice living on campus but living next door definitely comes with its advantages, like swimming pool, private balconies, rec center, green areas and even being closer to the taxi stand. The apartment is on a top floor where I have a wonderful view of green fields, the sprawling Bangkok skyline and sunsets. It definitely has a cosmopolitan feel to it!





How about these morning and evening shots taken since I moved in...
