Why Bangkok?!?!

Since Aug 2004, I have visited this City of Angel at least four times, thanks to budget airlines of course. Twice, I had use BKK as a transit stop to continue my journey to other parts of Thailand.

For example, in Aug 2004, I spent 4 days in BKK, exploring Ayuttaya and Kanchanaburi before I departed from BKK to Koh Samui for another 4 days and catch my return flight the next day.

In Jan 2005, I started my journey from BKK up north to Chiang Mai via bus and train before taking an internal flight back to BKK. It was a fruitful trip, visited other lesser-known provinces like Lop Buri, Pitsanuloke, Suthkothai, and then Chiang Mai.

Other trips to BKK alone were with my parents and friends just to eat and shop... kekeke...

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Cheap and delicious food & groceries
  • Cons:Traffic....
  • In a nutshell:Never tell the Tuk Tuk/Taxi Driver which tourist attraction you wanna go, tell them to bring you to the nearest street/building...
