Our Thailand Trip Last Fall

Speaking of our kids dreaming big, Joshua moved to Thailand in October of 2021. He enrolled himself in language school and started learning how to roast coffee. If you know Joshua, you would not be surprised to learn that he is quite good at roasting. Jeremy and I went and visited him in October 2022 and we were amazed at how well he could speak Thai and at the feedback we got on his roasting skills and his ability to carry himself in a foreign land. The latter isn’t too surprising considering this 3rd culture kid grew up in South Africa. Here are some photos from our time with him.
