That afternoon. Like every other day, we were still together, but that time, we were on the bank of Chao Phraya river. That was the 2nd “honeymoon”. We had heard, read, and watched many documents about Chao Phraya, but hadn’t touched it before. In old maps, this river is often called “Me Nam”, “Menam”, or…
When scheduling a trip to Hanoi – Bangkong – Chiang Mai – Bangkok – Ho Chi Minh City, I contacted in advance with some acquaintances who were living in Thailand to ask about things I was unclear about, because the information easily found on the Internet might be insufficient or inaccurate. A college friend of…
In short, you should be mentally prepared for all possible situations.
Suk 11 Hostel is on 1/13 Sukhumvit 11, Bangkok 10110, Thailand; about 100 steps away from Nana BTS, and about a few hundreds of steps more to the Terminal 21 Sukhumvit BTS Station.

For example, Thailand markets that I have been to are all nicely organized, like Ben Thanh, Tan Dinh, Ba Chieu markets, etc. in Vietnam. But a…
In Chiangmai, I enrolled in a cooking class in Asia Scenic Cooking School. You can refer to www.asiascenic.com! They offer full-day and half-day classes. We joined a full-day class. In the morning, there was a pick-up car to pick us up. In the car, we met friends coming from other places, and we talked and…
We arrived in Phuket at 4 pm, tired of the delayed flight so we just ate something light and slept until 10 am the next morning. So our first activity when we arrived in Phuket was to go into the forest to play with elephants. This is indeed an extremely interesting experience for myself. It…
I have many dreams, one of which is to fly. Perhaps, because I’m quite spontaneous, I cannot stand staying in one place for long, so walking is not enough for me, or because I am too much of a dreamer or both of the above reasons? It could be! ^.^ One of the activities I…
