My exquisite padlet by Nicole Knox https://padlet.com/22nicole_knox/57ivnrkho9y8 Made with the best of intentions en-us 2017-03-22 15:58:33 UTC 2026-01-25 19:11:30 UTC hello@padlet.com going to Bhutan 22nicole_knox https://padlet.com/22nicole_knox/57ivnrkho9y8/wish/161870419    My trip to Bhutan, on my way there it was very weird and difficult. What i brung with me was clothes and a toothbrush. I took three planes and all of them stunk like the bathroom. I also had to take four shuttles!! I felt like it took days on days. And one of the hardest parts was trying to find somewhere to stay so i just walked around with all my stuff. I found this small hotel called “ The Bhutan Motel”. I got a room a good sized one anyways but the walls were cracked the roof was falling apart and the bathroom had a ducked taped door. Everything else was just fine.

Hearing them speak was really weird and like the language they speak didn’t make since so i just said yes to everything and now i’m in a room. The bed was huge and the shower was amazing. There is a inside pool and hot tub. So i put my clothes away and now it’s time to to go out and get stuff for my room. shopping. It’s weird shopping here in bhutan. There’s a bunch of different foods and different spices  and just random food. So I looked for  fruits and vegetables. By the time i got back to my hotel room I had , had foods in my fridge that I have never had before. So far it’s been kinda hectic. ]]> 2017-03-22 16:03:06 UTC https://padlet.com/22nicole_knox/57ivnrkho9y8/wish/161871700 22nicole_knox https://padlet.com/22nicole_knox/57ivnrkho9y8/wish/161871934     On my way back was weird because there is like no cars you can’t drive you have to ride this bus that tours around bhutan I mean it’s not bad but it’s weird. Or some people ride horses. Or even elephants. And in america we have cars and buses and bikes and we can’t ride horses or elephants.   I think the hardest part on moving to a total different location is making new friends. It was               hard for me because i didn’t know there  language  and I dressed different from them. It was like  seeing a scary movie for the first time. But, then i found this girl all alone so i went up to her and wrote on a note asking what their language was and she said “Dzongkha”. I said i just speak english and so we taught each other a few words. Like hello is hoi.

There was over sea stuff and like markets so i got a job selling food. I  was in charge of the healthy foods. (fat joke much” i’m kidding.  But i got paid eight dollars an hour. Not bad huh? I worked four hours a day and then i went home or did something fun. 

    Yay! Iḿ on my way home!!! Again, i took three plains and four shuttles… itś a long trip there and back. [ ten hours later... ] Im home!! Feels dramatically different and just totally weird and not what iḿ used to.  Now I can drive and put gas in my car. I can sleep in my own bed with my own blanket and not look weird when I go out in public and being looked at strang. Im home.
