Well fed

It is remarkably easy to get good and inexpensive street food in my neigbourhood. There is one street packed with vendors a few blocks away from me and conveniently on the way to school. Even my home street has a few more established kitchens and there is also my current favourite - a guy with some real charcoals, grilling different sausages, seafood, meatballs and whatnot a la minute. Then finally he tops it off with a hefty spoonful of insanely good home-made chili sauce and the whole bagful of goodness is served with some diced cucumber. And one sausage costs only 10 baht so it is easy and tempting to have a snack as you go ... pretty much anywhere.

The school restaurants also offer a cornucopia of different authentic thai foods, mostly around 20-30 baht. I am starting to really believe that I won't be purchasing much of cooking equipment during my stay here...
