Bangkok 409: A Year Teaching in Thailand Captured in Cartoons and Pictures

Did you wake up this morning wondering what it might be like to teach English for a year in the exotic splendor of Thailand? If so, then you should probably look into it pretty quickly because life is very short, and in both the cosmic sense and practical scheme of things, you’re not going to be around on this spinning globe of chaos for much longer. Me neither, but that’s why I travel! Seriously, time is ticking! If you’re still sitting on the fence, weighing the pros and cons of giving up your minivan and discount club store membership existence to jump ship to a whole new world of papaya salad and warm waters, then this book might help you decide. And even if you’re not looking to transplant your entire livelihood just yet, but are sick and tired of reading thrilling spy novels or books with lots of useless filler words, then this collection of cartoons and pictures is just the thing for you! Sure, there are all sorts of fancy travel blogs out there detailing all the goodies one can find throughout the tapestry that is Thailand. Sure, there are even some pretty decent writings on what it’s like to teach abroad. But don’t be fooled by these tricksters with their clever words and gorgeous photography. Instead, sit back and enjoy this fine work, where I’ve compiled over 150 cartoons made using the finest digital paint program the 1980s had to offer, backed up with over 70 of the least blurry photos I took using my cracked, low-end Chinese phone. So if you love spending an afternoon with distant family as they share every single photo that they took on their extended vacation, while simultaneously providing exhaustive details about people you don’t know, then you’re in for a real treat here!
