Even though the jungles in Thailand are breathtaking and I'd love to be spending all my time in them, I'm heading to a different kind of jungle. I'm heading to Bangkok. Teeming with 11 million people, this tropical metropolis with its exotic orchids, delicious fruit, and smiling faces truly is a concrete jungle.
In this concrete jungle I will be setting up my dwellings among the people at GES (Global English School) where I will be leader of my own little tribe of fifth graders. It truly will be a challenge as I teach these mostly Thai students in my native language, English and try to pick up on their tonal language with its unique alphabet!
My travel guide for this adventure is none other than my Heavenly Father. He will show me things I've never seen before, he will protect me from all the many dangers encountered in a jungle, and he will lead me safely to where he wants me to be. This is the adventure of a life time and I'm ready to climb into my canoe, hold on for dear life, and ride it for all it's worth!
Please follow along on my adventure as you explore this blog!

About Me
- Jill of the Jungle
- I used to play this game on the computer at my grandparents house called "Jill of the Jungle". It was always fascinating that we shared a name and I couldn't help but wanting to share in her adventures. Since that time as a little girl at grandma's I've been discovering that life IS an adventure, especially when God is in control. I don't know what He has planned out for me. I do know, however that next to God's plans, things that Jill on the computer did such as swinging on vines, dodging jungle animals, and completing missions will seem insignificant in comparison!
