krabi was amazing. pictures to come very soon but not that they do any justice to the place because as someone told me before "i'm sure you have many other talents- just photography isn't one of them." :(

met other travellers one of whom is a lawyer cum documentarist from amsterdam who made a documentary about ugandan child soldiers and her next project involves trying to dollarize the value of a human life. met a girl who is moving back to ny and so it will be fun to have more friends when i get back. talked to some others and all of them just taking months off to travel. awesome. life should be like that everyday.

this year i will also make an effort to meet and speak to new people because i stopped doing that a while ago i almost forgot how fun and eye-opening it actually can be. plus now i am even more determined to do my documentary about immigrants in new york. i just need to get a working videocam.
