30th May 2013 - Bangkok, Thailand

Regarding this particular date, I went to Bangkok for the first time ever. Its one of the best places I've ever been all my life. I felt really at home there and I don't know why. The culture was familiar for me as I can pretty much mix with every asian country in South East Asia. The people there were welcoming and quite polite as I must say. Too bad I can't really show some pictures of the place as you know how apple's smartphone is with non-apple products when it comes to bluetooth sharing. Sucks.. I know.

Bangkok is pretty much the shopaholic destination. Its also called as "The Shopping Paradise" as everything comes in good quality and in such low prices. Taxis are pretty decent and can be found almost everywhere in Thailand. A good thing actually but the main problem is the language barrier. If you're lucky enough, you might meet a taxi driver who can actually speak English but if you don't.. a simple sign language is understandable worldwide. 

I actually met this aunt who was actually a Chinese Thai. This is the good thing for mandarin speakers as mandarin are used almost everywhere in Asian countries. She was quite nice and pretty committed. I'll surely love to meet her again when I come back. Everything seemed magical especially at night near the Siam Paragon and Siam Square. Bangkok is pretty much alive as it is in the morning as it is at night. My worst mistake was not going to the International Wax Museum or another name for it is.. I forgot. Its like the one in Hong Kong where you can find wax sculptures of international artists that looks exactly the one in real life.

Well that's it for today's post. My hope is for me to have a chance to come back to Bangkok within this very year. Bangkok is indeed my favorite destination.
