My burning Nostrils

If anyone knows anything about me it is that I am an extemely nose sensitive person. Before I left home I smelt the summer breeze, fabric softener, fresh cut grass and on occasion the Dare cookie factory. You can't go wrong with any of those smells.
Now I smell smells that have never infilrated my nostrils. Ones that cannot be explined in words and ones that I will not bring home in my suitcase.

It is rather amazing however that each part of the world has it's own distinct smell. Somdy would say it's the smell of garbage - rotting garbage. Living with a westerner has given us less of Thai persepective but it's still something I am not sure I will ever forget.
