Andy makes many pertinent observations on Earth humans over the history of Earth. His diary was written in the year 4587 and Earthlings will read it in 4591 as he is four light years away.

It does not matter whether you are 7 or 70 there are things you would like to know more about. You need to keep your brain engaged from a young age to ensure that it works as well as possible when you are older. Google can help you investigate your interests more fully
Lots of things here you can learn about.
Work, rest or play
It might be learning about English writers of renown in England such as Wordsworth when you visit the Lakes District in the UK, Ned Kelly country in Victoria and New South Wales in Australia, apartment blocks to combat urban sprawl as seen in South Korea, or aquaculture in Thailand to feed the world's increasing population, but any of them will be worthwhile if it causes your brain to tick over more. Join the continuously learning by searching YouTube for entertaining educational videos.
If you want to interact more with the locals in Thailand you can volunteer to improve their English, like you can if you stay in Nong Khai in Thailand. This way you get to experience a different culture, meet new friends, and help people who need it.
