Christmas is close!
When you’re living down in a tropical country with sun, blue water and beaches.It’s very important not forget the christmas feeling. So that’s why I have been trying to the best of the situation, like to decorate and play christmas music at my place. Just to spread the christmas mood in Thailand.
You can easily find Christmas decorations down here but a christmas tree will be more challenging to get your hands on. My neighbour brought me a plant two weeks ago and I got some Christmas balls from Mel. And I created my own Christmas tree, not the same, I know. I miss the smell from a proper Christmas tree, how it fills the air in the house with the smell of Christmas. But it's still looks pretty. I've also improvised a advent candleholder of singha sparkling water bottles. So every sunday it is a new candle I can light up, just one left now.
The Christmas plans we have is that first we will get some christmas feeling by watching die hard together. On christmas eve The Bar in Kantiang have a Christmas party at the beach. Christmas day we will first heading out on a dive day, I have bought a christmas hat that I’ll use underwater. Last Christmas dive I saw my first Manta. We will see what santa will bring me this year. On the evening we will all eat at Yang and deliver our Secret santa presents.
Christmas is the only time of the season I sometimes wish I was home to celebrate it with my family. This is my second year I will miss Christmas at home. But I know I also have my friends down here and we all together create a lovely Christmas.
