... a young guy from Vancouver who was also headed for Bangkok. There is no doubt that had I not befriended James I would not have gotten on that flight. And who knows what troubles would have become after missing that flight as I found the people of China to be unfriendly, unhelpful and english deprived. Stepping out of the airport around 2 AM, I was blown away by the high heat and humidity of Bangkok, my breathing improved. James and I shared a taxi to downtown ...

... und ihre Tante haben mir vorgestellt, bei dem Haus von ihren Kindern zu schlafen, weil ein Zimmer dort frei war. Sie betreuten mich waehrend der ganzen Wochen. Ich verbrachte meistens im Haus, um zu schlafen und mich auszuruhen. Phoranee hat mir das thailandische Kochen gezeigt, das eigentlich wirklich lecker ist.

... and Brian over. More people were invited, but there was a nasty storm that started right around when people would be leaving. The five of us had a good time with REAL margaritas and great homemade food courteously of Debra. On Sunday I hung out and went to Chatuchak market with Damon, but neither of us found what we wanted.

This weekend we went out on Friday night for Damon’s last night in Thailand. We started ...

... to Diana turned out to be a mother and her young son, so they obviously didn't agree to sit separately. While we waited to see who would be sitting by me, Diana joined me at the front, sitting to my right. Five minutes later, we found that the seat belonged to a young girl.

Apparently the Vietnamese walked all the Prisoner's of War all the way from Vietnam to The bridge into Thailand and the majority of the soldiers died on the way or shortly afterwards from the exhaustion and lack of food etc. sad story but the bridge is ...

... for me though. I can see the rush of school children and workers on the public transport which I am using well. I love the BTS sky train system because for 120TBH I get an unlimited daily pass which takes me pretty much everywhere I need to go. Today was another day of shopping mainly in the Siam area..my favourite shopping area which reminds me of Korean shopping alleyways is Siam Square. They also ...
