Bangkok in my Mind…

This will be my very first post about Travel..This blog will be like tales and stuff about our past travels(and the future) with my boys also, photos to share and the places we get the chance to live and visit.. Bangkok will be the first since I have a soft spot of that chaotic city! The place has lots to offer actually, shopping is Amazingly great with it’s Palaces and Tuk-tuk’s(motorcyle) in the main high ways..traffic and great people! It is definitely hot and crowded, but it’s fairly clean and lot of fun things to do. The best food is often found on the street as some says, you can never get hungry in Thailand! There’s an enormous variety of dirt-cheap things to eat. The food is great with that chili, ginger, big red chillis in that sweet coconut soup! I could live in that place forever since they have the cheapest things in the world…Btw, please be aware of the taxi drivers. As the tourist has gone more and more.Taxi drivers too is getting crazier..well, I’m speaking through my experiences;) I live there for 2 years! And don’t forget to bargain street side! Start in the half of the quoted price and go up from there and do it with a smile..;-) haha

~Photo was taken inside the Grand Palace.

As I had the opportunity to discover that amazing city while we were living there, I had developed and even have deep love to the people that I encountered everyday. Bangkok will take your breath away! Bustling, chaotic and polluted but loving every moment that I spent..I guess for the past years staying there, I had some enough knowledge and impressions about the area! The best place you can fully discover the life of the Bangkokians are in the Chao Phraya River take a long tail boat that will charter to you around the river, take sometime to check their canals as Thailand was also known as "Venice of the East"…Of course, there are up’s and down..Take some thai spa, visit the wats and don’t forget something from Thailand!

Will add another stories and tales next time!
