It costed me a lot of time and sweaty hard work: cutting and assembling the two loudspeakers, which are actually the 1st part of my project here in Thailand. Today I finished work with the speakers and tested them. They actually sound very nice, but what is even nicer is that I can see the product of 3 weeks of hard work now. And they make sound, that's so great!!! :-)
You can see the plan for the speaker here. Soon I will show you one picture with the finished product.

Furthermore I just wanted to inform you that on Friday I will leave Chiang-Mai for a 1 1/2 weeks travel. No, my internship is not over yet, but since people at the university are quite relaxed about the amount of work an international student has to do and want me more to get to know Thai culture, way of life and language, I was allowed to take 1 1/2 weeks of from work.
I will go to Bangkok (we all know it's the capital of Thailand), a crazy metropolis with even more crazy traffic and air pollution, but also very vivid and fancy. After that I will visit Ayuttaya, a very old temple site from a few centuries ago, when it is the old capital and king's town of Siam (Thailand was formerly known as "Siam"). Then we will go to visit a site that is famous for it's floating markets, which means people sell food and all kinds of other stuff on boats on the water. You might feel reminded to the James Bond movie "The man with the golden gun", where wild pursuits were taking place on the waterways. After that we head to "Ko Chan", which is also called the "Elephant island", thanks to it's shape. There we will stay for relaxing at the beautiful Thai beaches, soaking up the sun, swim at some waterfalls, do scubadiving and just enjoy our freetime. I will have company from Ayush, Tew (who will be our very experienced travel guide), Tip, Michael and Tan.
I am really looking forward to that since I cannot wait to see a bit of the rest of Thailand. Having stayed now about 1 month in Chiang-Mai has been very interesting, but I feel like getting away now for a certain period of time.
So I hope you liked my pictures and still keep reading eagerly what I have to say. :-)

Hi Marius, such nice pictures and even more interesting stories! the funny thing is that I went to Thailand in November, last year, so I know exactly what you're talking about :-)

We met a guy at KOH JUM, whose name is Ken. He's Canadian and is currently building up homes for expatriats from bigger cities around Asia, who want to spend their vacation on a small and really nice island in the South of Thailand (which I can recommend warmly!!). In fact, Ken's family (wife + 2 kids) live in Chiang-Mai, so maybe you want to meet them? Tell me by mail, so I can give you their e-mail address.
Bye, see you next time!

Hi Marius,
I’m sorry for my late reply. But the last weeks, I had to spend a lot of time on my exams preparation. But the effort was it worth…quite satisfying results. ;-)
Thanks again for sharing these really nice pictures with us. Some places seem to me as it could be sceneries of a fairy tale. Very impressive!
Well, enjoy the time in Bangkok and keep us up-to-date.
Take care!
Jörg
Well done for your projects!
