You are so lucky to have gotten so close to these magnificent creatures! I would do it too if I had the chance! I bet the food you had there was wonderful too. This is so awsome!

I've spent a good couple of months in Thailand over the years and love Bangkok even though most don't. If you liked the Tiger Temple I'd recommend you go to the antivirus factory too - you can have your photo taken with a giant python wrapped around your neck :-) - it's at the Queen Saovabha Memorial Institute Snake Farm. Last tip is for massage - the very best place in Bangkok for massage is the massage school at Wat Pho (home to the Temple of the Reclining Buddha) - that's where the massage therapists all train and they really know what they're doing. Have fun and keep posting! M x Hey Loren, good to see you off travelling again – I was back in Mykonos a few months back in the summer and it was nice to revisit but not the same.

There's no way in hell I would get that close to a tiger so you are my hero. I can't wait to hear about trekking through the rainforests. I did that in Costa Rica and it was AMAZING.

We'd all gone out last night - met at the center, drank for a few hours at jac n rons, then headed to the classy ass giddy up! And it just wasn't the same with out you! That said, you seem to be having a BLAST and not giving a fuck about missing out on the 80's vids and the old bears here! I love the pics with the Tigers and am looking forward to more pics to come, because I am doing two things - living vicariously through you as well as being filled with envy!!! Miss ya man!!! -W- (the good one) Great idea with the blog site – i’ll be on it often :) First and foremost – we miss you big time!!!

First...you are so fucking funny...Oh, and...I like the shaved head. I'm so sorry I didn't get a chance to talk to you before you left. I have been so busy working on the film that I'm interning with. I wish nothing but the best or you. The Kwai River Bridge is probably the most beautiful, architectural structure I've ever seen in my life! If everything works out with this film, I may be going to India where they plan on shooting. Fingers crossed! Have fun in Thailand! Loren!!! First…you are so fucking funny…Oh, and…I like the shaved head. I’m so sorry I didn’t get a chance to talk to you before you left.

Mark and I were just gawking. Oh the tiger's big too. I am slightly envious of all of this, but it's amazing. Much love from the states where the heat is only slightly less torturous than it is in Bangkok. Have fun, stay safe, don't talk to strangers, and remember Claire Danes' fate in "Brokedown Palace."
