Around Mahasarakham: The OTOP Marketplace
Note: With this entry, I’m starting a new category of posts called Around Mahasarakham (AKA Around Maha Sarakham). People have been asking exactly what the town we live in is like, so I’ll try to document it better in the future. ////////////////////////////////////////////// Built to fail just last year, the OTOP marketplace is already sliding into moldy disuse, and the unmistakable stench of broken loser dreams permeates the entire area.

Too bad. // Part 1 is very blurry and hard to see, but contains brutal leech burning imagery as an added bonus: Thai language note: These leeches, on land, are called “taak.” Ones in the water are “prin” (pronounced like pudding in Japanese without the hard “r”) The hand-sized ones in the…

I’m back
Max is on my lap helping to go through the email backlog (actually, he’s singing to Gonzo’s Jamboree vid just now). Two things stand out about our trip this year: Our school’s secondhand Fuso 2-ton truck and the infamous leeches of Khao Yai. More to follow.
