For my 200th photo I have cheated somewhat and gone back to 2009 and a 2 month trip I made to Thailand. I was made redundant from a job I loved and couldn't settle so took myself off on a trip of a lifetime. I spent time teaching English at an orphanage and helped with construction work. I had play time on the beach and then I joined a team of mahouts again teaching English but more importantly working alongside them looking after the elephants. Heaven on earth. I was made an honoury mahout because despite my height they said I had a heart of an elephant and had definitely been a mahout in a previous life. Praise indeed!
