à la naturelle

We wished to have a dog. We cannot have a dog at home, but now we have a lizard:

 a family member of mine (Bangkok, May 09)

In the picture actually is not our lizard, although s/he visits us almost every night. Ours is inside our apartment. We call him/her “JJ,” cos in lizard in Thai is “jinjok.” S/he eats bugs, poops on our floor and we clean when we see it. S/he is always around our fridge.

I find her/him cute. It’s such a small thing and yet life seems a bit different.

A month ago I got some fish therapy:

fish therapy (Hua Hin, May 09)

Fish eat dead skin of my feet. 200 Thai baht (about 6 USD) for 15 minutes. I wanted to try because I never had the chance to, although was always interested in.

First minutes were tough, cos it was ticklish. After a while, it started to feel great. Peace of mind.

People lived with other animals (cos people are animals after all) as long as its history. I guess people now are too apart from them, and probably miss them. That’s maybe why I felt so good about it.
