The Month Of Spring(?): March 2022 Recap
We’re back in the Northeast USA! After a month in Thailand, I landed in NYC, went to Connecticut for a hot second, and have been bopping around New York State, Massachusetts and Vermont ever since. It’s been a wild time – mostly because of the weather. It’s gone from a sub-zero snowpocalypse to 65 and sunny and back in the Northeast. I’m getting whiplash 🙂 .

A Day At A Spa In Thailand: Wyndham Grand Phuket Zana Spa Review
So I wasn’t originally going to write a post about this experience, but I found the small differences of how spas work in the US compared to Thailand interesting and wanted to give people a heads up in case they were interested in going to one. I also enjoyed this experience so much that wanted to share it with y’all and even semi-jokingly told my Mom that we should come to Thailand whenever we want to go to the spa since we can travel hack biz class flights for $20 to get here in style.
