Kiva let you loan to the working poor
Kiva lets you connect with and loan money to unique small businesses in the developing world. By choosing a business on Kiva.org, you can “sponsor a business” and help the world’s working poor make great strides towards economic independence. Throughout the course of the loan (usually 6-12 months), you can receive email journal updates from the business you’ve sponsored. As loans are repaid, you get your loan money back.

The big festival where you release a float with a loved one. Than you will see each other in the next live again.
how touching 
but you would not believe what kind of music they had in the background. on one of the big boats going down the river they had heavy metal blasting and than the band in the park started – thai heavy metal – strange strange these thai…
How am i ever supposed to eat my rice if they serve it that way??
had to cut his head of 1st – the rest was easy! went quite well with a red snapper and squid in pepper and garlic
Still the same things to see. It is nice to sit outside again and have dinner. later i went to mango bar and had a nice evening with a bloke from australia.
saturday i went to the weekendmarket – one thing changed big time over here – the local bus went from 3.5 bath to 7 bath – a 100% increase!!! On the way back i used the aircon bus and this one is still 18 bath. The klong boat to Pratunam was also still 10 bath.
What a trip! 1st i did got to the train station a bit to late and had to get another train. not a lot of time at the airport. than they stuffed me on the plane. i was able to get an emergency flight but i could not recline the seat. so it was a very very uncomfortable flight. i had to pay extra for my vegetarian meal – that is shit. but i got everything on china with metal fork and knive and it looked about 10 times better than the plastic food the guy next to me got.
sunrise over india
had a nice ride into the city next to a guy with a 14 day old puppy. went into the bamboo guest house again. than breakfast ak kc’s and of course i did meet Joke there right away. Later i will meet Kae – so the 1st day is over.
you get now 50 bath for an € and as far as i can see the prices are about the same as last year. tomorrow i will go to the weekend market early and in the afternoon i can see pantip placa waiting for me. Ok – there is some tasty seafood waiting for me
