Khao Sok National Park, Thailand
Khao Sok National Park, Thailand – 2012
An awesome trip to an unnaturally awesome natural land. Khao Sok National Park is a rainforest in southern Thailand. This was one of the most interesting natural places I have ever been and I hope to return and have a longer stay.

Colorful fruits sit closely together as a demonstration of the unity of their species.

I started interviewing this homeless guy on the street. He was really funny, creative and handsome; I’m surprised he doesn’t have a nice job, a home, friends, family and a cute FEMALE personal assistant.

Pretty good trip partner, sorry for inadvertently submitting you to your trip partner’s severe mental instability.

Homeless wanderer cat stares off in the distance with oscillating emotions of hope and desperation…sounds familiar.
