Yaay!Going back again!  — 1 year ago

Wooohoo!!I’m going back to Bangkok again next Wednesday.Can’t wait to shop and dine—that’s the thing to do in Bangkok.Call me ignorant for I don’t enjoy the serpentine canals leading to the water markets or the buddhist temples that witness monks chanting ancient sutra.I’ll do just that at a even sacred place okay?
Maybe i’ll make a trip to Playground!seems like a nice place to be seen and see.Till then..

land of a thousand smiles—really, this place can’t be wrong. we met so many nice people that those stories of kidnappers simply floated to the back of my mind. we were staying in pratunam hotel and had trouble getting a cab because it’s located in some ulu alley and no drivers want drive in. then this group of teenagers kept staring at us—we thought we were jumping the queue for taxis. then they came over, asked us in poor english where are we heading. this cute guy then stopped a cab, speak to him in thai and off we went—safely back to the hotel.

this is one hella shoppers’ paradise man. chatuchak market or JJ market is enough for you to spend the entire weekend. i went there on Saturday and shopped from it opened till it closed and even went back on Sunday. bangkok serves really good food, i was so spoilt for choice! try cabbages and condoms in sukhumvit.
