Riding the Sky Train

I like to ride the Sky Train. We’re going to visit a fun place on the other side of the city. So we have to ride the Sky Train. The people call it BTS, which stands for Bangkok Transportation System. It is a fast, clean, and traffic free way to get around the city. It goes above the roads of Bangkok, and I like the view from the Sky Train.

You have to use a card to ride the Sky Train. It is fun. It goes fast so you have to hang on. I like to watch the city passing by when I ride the Sky Train. When we get off the BTS, we like to buy pineapple, fresh fruit & vegetable juices. Yum Yum!

Baiyoke Sky

On the top of this building there is an observation deck. From the top you can see the whole city. It is the tallest building in Thailand. The observation deck turns around and around.

It is a big job to share Jesus to this city.

A Brand New Church Plant

I went with Daddy and Pastor Rick, and Pastor Chanchai. We went to NIVA International School. It was the first Sabbath for the NIVA Church Plant. Daddy preached his sermon entitled “Running the Race.” We sang songs. It was fun to be at a new church!


I tasted pomelo fruit for the first time at potluck. It tastes like grapefruit. I liked it so much that I almost ate a whole one!

My First Bus Ride

Today I went shopping with my parents and I took the green bus.

It costs 6.5 baht to ride it.

It is easy to catch, since there are lots of them on the street all the time.

This bus does not have air conditioning.

It is really bumpy to ride and it's fun!

My First Day of School

On my first day of school in Thailand I was so sad. In the middle of the day, I cried because I didn’t know anyone. And I didn’t feel happy. I didn’t know what the kids were saying because they speak Thai, and I don’t understand Thai.

I made a friend, and I tried to make friends with my classmates. And one of them I really tried, and her name was Yzza. We wear uniforms at school. And my PE uniform is navy blue, red and white. On Fridays I wear my Adventurers uniform. It is white and navy blue, with an orange sash.

Flying to Thailand!

We had a fun time coming to Bangkok.

We went on two flights. The first one was 10 hours long! That is a long time to be in an airplane!


We had a stop in Tokyo, Japan where we explored the airport for three hours. The second flight was six hours long where we landed in Bangkok, Thailand.

My Birthday Away from Home

I celebrated my birthday with some new friends. They are missionaries too. Pastor Erika Puni showed us a coconut trick from the Island of Samoa. There is a hidden snake in the coconut! He was funny!

Going to Mission Institute

At Mission Institute, I went to school with other children who were funny. At my class, I had fun with my teachers. We learned about kindness, and coloring, and being a missionary for Jesus. We lived in the girl’s dorm at Andrews University.


I saw fire flies for the first time. I went to the zoo with my classmates on a field trip.There was a cute little baby I taught her to say, “Da Da!”. I ate lunch at the cafe. I had fun.
