Family travel is a kind of happiness.

Hello friends, traveling with family is one of the activities that are the goals of many families. However, some families cannot do it for various reasons, such as relationships, time, health, and financial status. This may be an obstacle for some families.

I had an inferiority complex in childhood, having to struggle and help myself all the time. I never had the chance to travel with my parents when I was a child. Therefore, when I had children, I raised them according to my ideals that I lacked when I was a child. I always let my children think for themselves. I have a duty to guide them. As for making decisions, I give them freedom. Another inferiority complex in my childhood is education. I did not have the opportunity to continue my secondary education. I had to work to earn money since I was a child and find opportunities to study by myself until I graduated with a bachelor's degree. Therefore, I did not block my children from studying what they wanted to study because I know that sometimes studying is not the end of life.
There are many other elements that make a person successful in life.

I intended to talk about traveling, but I took my friends to another topic. Last year, my family planned a trip to Kanchanaburi Province. We drove to the border at the Mon Bridge, which is the longest wooden bridge in Thailand. It is 445 meters long and is the second longest wooden bridge in the world after the U Bein Bridge in Burma. It is a bridge that crosses the Songkhla River. It is located in Nong Lu Subdistrict, Sangkhla Buri District, Kanchanaburi Province. The route is a hilly route that goes up and down, crossing many mountains, wide curves, steep slopes and more than 300 curves.

We booked accommodation in the market. When we arrived at the accommodation, we rested and went out to walk in the evening market. There were student performances to welcome tourists from various places. There was also a variety of food to choose from.

In the morning, we had to walk to the famous Mon Bridge. There were many tourists who rented clothes from the shop to change into the local costumes here. It looked beautiful when standing together as a group. But my family didn't change because no one likes to have their pictures taken on camera. So we had very few family photos. The trip focused on taking pictures of the atmosphere. Sometimes I had to secretly take pictures of them. It was very strange for my family. We didn't have any relationship problems because even though my daughter is grown up now, we still kiss each other's cheeks as usual. We've done it since we were little every day when she went to school.

This trip happened in November 2023. I didn't know what to tell my friends, so I went back to look at the old photos that I took and didn't post anywhere. I intended to post them here every day in 2025.

Thank you to all my friends who have supported me.
