Description
Northern English TEFL tutor, living, studying and working in Thailand.
This initially started to help keep me sane during lockdown. Now I'm back for 2022 and I plan to use it as a means to process the traumatizing experience that is my Masters degree (in Education). It may also continue to offer other insights and personal anecdotes too though - for anyone who cares to listen.
Anyway, hit follow on Spotify and join me for a glass of wine at the end of each month.
Annd, for a fuller picture of everything I'm upto, head to www.oohlalad.com.
Peace and love, and speak soon!

He's having a fag, but he is here, honest. This week... Marking work and dealing with student complaints from 10,000 kilometres away. Sabai sabai...

Last week I decided to pack my rucksack and head back to the UK: a decision I'm annoyed at myself with for not making sooner! Anyway, today's a bad day but, it's Friday so, here's my update. In the meantime, I've a case of red to sink into. Adios.

This is the audio from our first visually-recorded interview, set to take place and be posted on YouTube each month. The broader purpose of the video series is to capture the souls of 100 beautiful people over the course of time. (plus the personal weekly updates to Spotify too)

Haha) Peace and love all xx

The I more I study foreign languages, the easier it becomes to teach English as one. Tonight, we celebrate a student hitting a personal milestone. I switch my wine for coffee. We take a trip to immigration. Join me, as the rain pours outside, and make yourself comfortable on my sofa #LoveLife

The England game. The racist slurs. The aftermath... (And from this side of the world, technical challenges, broken wine glasses and military checkpoints) Join me for a glass of red on this fine Friday evening.

Whilst completing my first ever Zoom class (to nearly 90 students) I realised nobody had started the written elements of my work. But sabai sabai, it's Thailand!?! This realisation, and the comparison to my friends' situations here, leads me to highlight the reason why I will never leave. Finally: This Podcast needs you (and your sexy voices!). Head to Anchor.FM and leave me a voice note to include in future. They can be about anything. They can be questions or statements, reflections or rants. Teacher, travel, covid-focused or otherwise. I don't know who, but analytics inform me I now have five regular listeners. So clear your throat, come on in and speak with me.

Back home in Thailand. Got wine in my hand, friends by my side and a rooftop up above. Happy days.

After escaping German quarantine the race is really on to make it back in time for the already-delayed funeral. Our roller coaster ride has nearly ended - but not before police pull-overs and a near first class heart attack 😙

After leaving Thailand for my dad's funeral, I tested positive for Covid19. Join me on the roller-coaster ride I encountered during an already difficult time... No sim cards, expired bank cards, forgotten credit cards and German quarantine... I promise the tone isn't as morbid as the content description suggests! #TooManyObstacles 🙄

Reflections of Preston bus station, eating out and special occasions with the family. Dad, you've been by my side since my first breath. Today might mark the three month anniversary of your funeral but your love for life will always be ever present. Love you, and miss you, and see you again soon one day.

Other voices won't be joining for (at least) another fortnight. So this week, it's me, myself and you sexy bastard! Today marks the three month anniversary of my dad's funeral and, given Sunday is Father's Day in the UK, I've decided to dedicate this evening's bottles of red to him. This intro clip is generally nothing of interest to be honest. If you value your time, maybe just skip ahead... Peace and Love xx

OK, so now I've attempted to produce and publish one draft, and have been added to Spotify's platform, I'm ready to fly... Well, almost, eh?! Haha. Just a quick apology basically (for the first half being naff) Let me know what you'd like my first proper episode to be about next week: you can message me on my Facebook page, Instagram or Twitter. Happy Friday people!

*This was only a practise whilst I figured out if I could even understand the app and software involved* Surprisingly, I could - so here we are! (Sorry for the sound quality issues - they'll be rectified by the next attempt) Anyway, I'm back in Thailand after heading home in March - so let's do this!? Good morning, good evening and good night!
