Bangkok, the capital of the Land of Smiles, Thailand. Its a place that I have visited countless times since my first trip in 2002. Often I have people asking me why I frequent Bangkok and whether the repetition will sooner or later get me sick of the place. Interestingly, I thought about it and the answer was quite a resolute no.
For a guy to constantly visit Bangkok, its inevitable that people might get the wrong idea. Bangkok, besides its cheap shopping and eating have another side that tends to dominate the attention come night-time. However, that's really not the reason why I am a regular visitor of Bangkok.
Recently, alot of my friends have been planning holidays to Bangkok and inevitably they would look for me for advice on hotels, rates and places of interests etc. I find it amusing that I am in a way being perceived as a Bangkok guru already. That being said, I am actually quite glad that my advices will hopefully in one way or another aid them in their decisions on pertinent aspects of their holiday.
However, it can get quite tiring to answer queries one by one as the questions they ask tend to get repetitive. Not that I mind one bit but I just thought there would be a better way of disseminating the information I know without having to go through over and over again.
Thus I have decided to create a blog solely for the purpose of collating and storing my personal opinions about Bangkok holidays and provide easy reference for friends and interested parties in future.
To make it simple, I have decided to organise it into a few main categories, namely accomodation, food, shopping places, places of interest and some trivia to brighten and smoothen the holiday trip.
