Bangkok

i was really small when i travelled to a foreign country for the first time in my life with my mum. Sounds a bit weird since i live in a foreign country . But bangkok was different. Initially i was a kid and thought that id see some really posh place like us or uk where really posh famous people roam the streets. My assumption was due to my mothers usage of the word ” foreign”. So you can imagine what i felt when i landed there and looked outside to see it was the same as my home country! I felt cheated and was reluctant to get out of my hotel room just so that i could watch reruns of my favourite cartoons. But gradually i started loving to get out of my hotel room and checking out the different life bangkok had to offer. The people were friendy though there was always a language barrier between us and them ,their food was exotic and the shopping…MY GOD the shopping was amazing!!!! night market and weekend market were my favourites. My memories of the place are few but strong at the same time and i am looking forward to see this palce again very soon in my lifetime!!!

I didnt get much to see in Bangkok except the Hospital and some of the huge Malls… nice place to go.. streets bit crowded.. but ok.. best to go for clothes shopping

The food is very yummy..

was in October 2006.

i wanna go to bkk for 3 days. what are the 5 best places to see there and when’s the best time.

I came back a different person after my trip to Thailand. The people and the country are truly amazing. I can’t wait to go back. I came back with a sense of peace that I never had.

The temples are awe inspiring and the food is the best I have ever had.

Have somebody at your hotel find you a good taxi driver… you can get one for the whole day for really cheap, and their service and knowledge is priceless. Our driver, Mr. Pon, took us everywhere and gave us advice to help keep us safe… (though be advised that taxi drivers DO get kick-backs from many of the places they take you to on their own suggestion… but many times they are really good places. This practice subsidizes their measly incomes, so don’t get too upset about it unless they are insistent and rude about taking you somewhere…)

I’m coming at the end of October and I am staying for 6 months to teach English! Can’t wait!

so far my favorite among all the places i’ve ever been

Love .. everything about it.. my wallet and mobile was stolen at chatucak.. but it wont dapen my affection to Bangkok and its people.. will come back
