Sawadeekap!

The new year has come and I have just returned from my Bangkok trip with my good travel buddies Benny, Amanda, and Charmian!
and like everyone who has been to Bangkok and back, we can attest that it is fun fun fun!!!

The food is cheap (unless you decide to dine at the rooftop restaurant like us), the taxi is super cheap (my taxi fare home from changi airport is more than combined in bkk), and most of all SHOPPING is CHEAP and GOOD!!!

We eat all the time!

We instagram and tweet all the time!

Khao san's crowd!!!

I'm the only one brave enough to swim in the icy water in the morning! Brrrrr!!!

First time I witnessed and tried this method of changing  pants!

Rooftop dining on the 55th floor at Red Sky where we spent a bomb! But the view was worth it!!!!

Benny trying Amanda's facial stuff for extra blush haha!

My Shopping gains at Chatuchak Weekend Market and Platinum Fashion Mall!

One of our many dining places! Mr Jones Orphanage! (not a real orphanage)

Still using phone even when blow drying hair!

Fusilli Phad Thai at another hound cafe. I ate the thai phad thai too!

Even though it was just a short 5 day trip, it was really awesome as it was my first time in Bangkok! Amanda was our tour guide and planned the itinerary with Benny while me and Charmian just tagged along haha :P

There were times where it was quite eventful for example when we took 2 hours to get to Chocolate Ville which is a nice european looking village place very far out from the city and we had to rely on foursquare to guide the taxi driver there. (Luckily Taxi fare was only 200+ baht =10 SGD)

And it was quite funny to spot so many Singaporeans in BKK including some of our friends too especially in the shopping area that we spent quite some time (and our money) on haha.

I would love to get back there again and see the other sights and sounds and tastes of Thailand.
