7. The best places to paint are the places that are the wildest. Phanat Nikhom is all over the map, with a Wat amongst trees and old trucks with rusted buildings. The worst was Tokyo because it was sterilized and boring with too many cops with nothing to do.
8. The toughest thing about painting outside in Thailand (especially in Bangkok) is finding a place to stand where a moped or car won't put you in the hospital. Phanat Nikhom works, Chantaburi is about 50/50. Bangkok is NoWayInHell I'm standing within 20m of that road.
9. It sounds stupid, but I had to buy new shoes twice, and finding size 13 was nearly impossible even with massive super malls. I eventually got some *fantastic* Northface gortex shoes and you'd think that'd be stupid in SE Asia but they rock. No sweating, stays dry, and solid.
9a. That means if you travel and you have massive boat anchor feet like me then *BRING TWO OTHER PAIRS OF SHOES YOU FOOL*. No, you cannot just hop on Amazon or Zappos here. You buy shit in stores or GFYS.
10. I did not see a single person painting outside at all. People were blown away that someone would do art outside and would come up and take photos like I was a green elephant, but everyone immediately knew what I was doing. The gear seems to be universal.
11. I could eat their spiciest foods. One time they took me to a remote restaurant and ordered wild boar and deer and told me it was "really spicy". I ate it like it was popcorn and they stared at me like I was juggling 20 chainsaws. "You are really good at eating Thai food."
12. Street food here wins Michelen Stars: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/dec/06/queen-of-thai-street-food-jay-fai-wins-michelin-star-bangkok-guide … Jay Fai also looks totally Steam Punk in her goggles.
That's it so far. When I get back to "Farang Internet" I'll start posting all of this and writing about the trip.
