Earlier in May, Year 10 Thai Language students set out on a Culture Trip to Jim Thompson House and it was by far the best Thai trip I’ve ever been on! I liked how we travelled via the BTS to Jim Thompson Museum, which was a totally new experience for some students and me. This Thai trip helped me learn much more about Thailand’s culture and its diverse history. While also allowing me to learn more about the story of Jim Thompson. I learnt many facts that I had never known before.

This trip did not just show me what a traditional Thai house built by Tim Thompson looked like, which is six traditional Thai houses joined together, but how it developed to its current state. This trip also allowed me to socialise with my friends in a different environment outside of school. 

I have deep gratitude for the teachers who made this trip possible and made the experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
