My Nephew fell in love with Thailand while in the NAVY. Since then he travels there 'bout twice per year and stays for a couple of months. ???
This time he was there for about 18 months. He enrolled in their university and took a three month bicycle trip 'round the country
with a group of other Americans; young and old.

Six weeks ago he left for Europe. He's now on his 22nd day of a solo bicycle trek through Italy...
However, he's going back to Thailand. Plans to stay for a few more years and go back to their university to nail down the language.
