With Grace Lee, Ruth Duncan, Johanna McMinn, Neil Harvey, Francesca Ciccarelli and Wendy Hudson.
Mr. Spider wasn’t the only insect to rear its creepy head at us in Koh Phangang - apparently, in our open-air jungle tree-house of a ‘hotel-room’ I was bitten by a mosquito infected with Dengue Fever. If you’ve never heard of Dengue Fever, it’s probably for the best - though it’s good to be aware it exists. But don’t fear, blog readers; Generally speaking, Dengue is only contracted in jungle areas - and by people who’ve taken semi-permanent residence in the country in which they were infected, having more exposure time to it (like me). The fact is there are always risks wherever you travel – and even in your hometown. It’s better to take the adventure!
That said, this blog entry will be truncated by the fact I very sadly had to leave my first-ever Koh Ngai yoga group prematurely and high-tail it to a hospital to get some blood work done and attempt to regain strength. Thankfully, I was substituted by the lovely Vincenzo who I’m quite certain my students didn’t mind being passed along to… Young, smart, good-looking, great yoga teacher and of the male gender - score! I wish I had the opportunity to spend more time with you, 8/16 group.
