“Since retiring, I’ve decided to challenge myself with new projects. My first goal is to learn to read, write, and speak Thai. I kicked this project off in September 2025 using YouTube and the Mondly app. In mid-March, I began taking online lessons with Lah, a teacher based in Chiang Mai. I still have a long way to go before I’m fluent—or even just able to have a simple conversation—but I’m enjoying the process! My next ambition is to create content for YouTube, but first, I’m focusing on getting this website up and running.”
