My wife and I took a tour of Trang, Thailand where we live. We rode through town in a tram without windows and were greeted by so many Thai people. It was a fun time! Drove past a few Chinese Temples because the Chinese Vegetarian Festival is occurring this week. Everyone wears white and eats a specific vegetarian menu throughout this week. There are some really yummy fried food in the stands we couldn't resist trying. 🐲⛩️🥗 #jetpackmagician #trangthailand #thailand #thailandtravel #Thaituesday #traveltuesday #traveler #foreignerinthailand #animatorinthailand #chinesevegetarianfestival #vegetarianfestival #chinesetemple #temple (at Trang, Thailand) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3YVuwFANL8/?igshid=cr51xsott8f5

Continuing my ghostly vibes as Halloween approaches. I like the esoteric nature of this quote. It’s an experience I think everybody has - it connects us to the root of being. 👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻 “I don’t suppose you have to believe in ghosts to know that we are all haunted, all of us, by things we can see and feel and guess at, and many more things that we can’t.” ― Beth Gutcheon

Spookiness found here as Jetpack Magician plays the horror video game Monstrum! Looking forward to the sequel this year! https://youtu.be/th6yYALG17I 🎃☠️🎮🧟‍♂️👻 #jetpackmagician #halloween #horrorvideogames https://www.instagram.com/p/B3Re2qcAOyl/?igshid=17ukdah1enyhj

Ate at a pretty cool restaurant with my family where we cooked food over an open flame on the table. Thailand is crazy for hot pot. It was crazy hot cuz, y'know, it’s Thailand. And so is fire. It was fun and I’m glad I’m getting to spend time with my Thai family. 🇹🇭🍲🔥 #jetpackmagician https://www.instagram.com/p/B3FD9anAQ8u/?igshid=6pw4ij2dpv53

Rather amused at the tongue & cheek humor of this week’s quote as I continue the spooky theme. Enjoy!

“Despite my ghoulish reputation, I really have the heart of a small boy. I keep it in a jar on my desk.” - Robert Bloch

One could get used to the beach life. Thai beaches are beautiful. This particular photo is at Ao Nang Beach in the Krabi province of Thailand.

Continuing with our haunted quotes, this one is a bit more whimsical. It reminds us to reach out into the ether, to respond to things we know and feel in our spirit. “Our feet are planted in the real world, but we dance with angels and ghosts.” - John Cameron Mitchell

This week’s quote continues the ghostly theme! It’s about our memories, all the things we hold onto. These memories make up ourselves. In some ways, hauntings are just echos of the past and we create those echos.

“In one aspect, yes, I believe in ghosts, but we create them. We haunt ourselves.” ― Laurie Halse Anderson, Wintergirls

Living it up in Thailand! Live music and large cocktails with umbrellas at Mado Sabai! Gotta get that balance between work and play. I enjoy how fresh and (often tart) Thai cocktails are. The Pina colada was off the chain (not seen here). Should you ever visit Trang, Thailand - definitely order a Pina colada from here! 🍹🍍🥥🌴🌊🇹🇭 #jetpackmagician (at Mado Sabai มาดูสบาย) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2O9arYgfWw/?igshid=1218a2i66o9pz

Koh Libong island was cool. Here’s me on the beach with a spectacular sunset. It was low tide so I was able to walk a long ways to the next bit of land that usually juts out of the water in the distance. Island life suits me. Sabai dee krup! 🏝️🇹🇭🏖️ https://www.instagram.com/p/B18nHNAgBAF/?igshid=bmom300ldxvm

Continuing with the ghost theme of my current project, I bring to you this week’s quote! I enjoy the human interconnectedness this quote speaks of. 👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻 “We’re all ghosts. We all carry, inside us, people who came before us.” ― Liam Callanan, The Cloud Atlas https://www.instagram.com/p/B15_lxwAjBh/?igshid=twk5b2uub8b9

Bottoms up to uploading this week’s video! 🎦 https://youtu.be/LvuzCTOeLa8 Hear all about the cool medieval game I’m playing and a little D&D talk which inspired my conclusions about story scale and the heroes journey. (For those curious, the game is called Kingdom Come). 🍺🎮⚔️🎲🏹 https://www.instagram.com/p/B131ryFAnd9/?igshid=1qfhn1gojw8ev

“Kah mee-mee noo-loo!” (Which is Furbish for “I am so happy!”) Rad! Totally did not expect to see this at a gas station off the highway. What will I find in Thailand next? Apparently Furby is still big around here. All the nostalgia! Did you grow up with a Furby? Tell me all about it! ✨💖✨ https://www.instagram.com/p/B1q67s7AjN3/?igshid=1b5e4bk2czpr5

If you’ve been following my YouTube channel, you’ll know the topic of my current video game I’m working on: GHOSTS! The next several Mondays, maybe for forever, my #motivationmonday will consist of ghost quotes. Enjoy! 👻 🍪 👻 🍪 👻 🍪👻🍪👻 “The house smelled musty and damp, and a little sweet, as if it were haunted by the ghosts of long-dead cookies.” ― Neil Gaiman, American Gods 👻🍪 👻🍪 👻🍪 👻🍪 👻 https://www.instagram.com/p/B1n8H40AfNF/?igshid=1gb9r6lxyilob
