i tutor kids in my house tuesdays and thursdays. and since i don't take money, one of the kids' aunts gifts me with fruit. exotic fruit. last week it was a pomegranate. this week, tiny coconut? not really sure what it is. i took off the pre-cracked bit of shell off the top and encountered a brain-like .... brown substance. pierced through that and hit coconut juice. but seriously. this thing is tiny. is it a coconut?
and the meat inside peels cleanly away from the shell:
anyone seen this before?

About Me
I am a Peace Corps Volunteer serving as an English teacher in the south of Thailand. The random ramblings within this blog in no way represent the views of the Peace Corps, its affiliates or the United States Government. They're my random ramblings and mine alone. Mwahaha.
That said, I'm into taking lots of pictures, stand-up comedy, and in general, enjoying life (which may or may not sometimes involve traveling).

Quotes
Anais Nin:
"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are."
Jenny Kane, PCV 118. From "Recycle Love" article in Sticky Rice magazine:
"The relationships we create in the world, the love in essence that we put out in the world, on any particular day, is what life is about ... Love the pain, the tears, love the work of getting through each day. Love and, despite love, even, love again, and more."
Ralph Waldo Emerson:
"To laugh often and love much... to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to give one's self... this is to have succeeded."
