Maya C. Robinson

My name is Maya Robinson and I am currently a university student entering my fourth and final year of studies. I recently traveled abroad to Thailand, where I pursued a minor in studies involving Thai language, civilization, and culture. I was also delighted to take courses in which I learned Muay-Thai boxing and Thai Culinary Arts. The experience was absolutely amazing, and really opened my eyes to a culture and lifestyle drastically different to my own in the United States. Along my travels, I kept a detailed blog, but upon discovering this site, I realized there were many more ways to share my experiences with others, and hopefully encourage others to explore Southeast Asia and all it has to offer. When I returned home to the United States, I was eager to share my stories, and found that I was really passionate to spread the word about the hidden gem of Thailand and its surrounding neighbors. I hope my experiences are both informative and intriguing for readers, and perhaps even persuasive enough to get you on the next plane to Bangkok!
