pickThe author goes to #thailand from Canada on a Rotary exchange programme at the age of 17, in the mid 1980s. To begin with I thought she would be a typical whiny teenager but actually this diary is very honest about her feelings and insightful about Thailand, particularly when looking at the lives of Thai women at that time. The author is a poet and you can see that throughout the book.
Does anyone need this for #readingasia2021? #swapme
BarbaraBB I am glad you have a pick for an Asian read, it‘s been awhile I think 🤦🏻♀️ 3y

LeahBergen I sent you a book ages ago … you haven‘t happened to receive it yet, have you? I DID try to save money and sent it the cheapest way, though. 😆😆 3y
squirrelbrain No, sorry @LeahBergen, nothing as yet..... I‘ll definitely let you know when it arrives - you‘re very kind! 😁 3y
LeahBergen @squirrelbrain I didn‘t think it had arrived but I had to check. If it doesn‘t show up, I‘ll resend something! 😘 3y
squirrelbrain Ooh no @LeahBergen please don‘t think you have to do that. I looked at the economy option previously for shipping to US / Canada and it said allow 2 months! 😬 3y
LeahBergen I‘m pretty sure it should show up soon. 🤞 I cheaped out on postage because the next faster method was like $35 extra which is so stupid. It‘s just a tiny parcel! 😆😆 3y
squirrelbrain How much?! That is ridiculous! I thought ours was bad at about (cd! @LeahBergen 3y
