My Bangkok!

I have always loved this country. Ever since my first visit, I knew in my heart that it is a place that I would go back to again and again.

This trip is more fun than usual because I was with 4 other girlfriends who had one thing in mind. Eat, shop and party. Mitzi, Mary Anne, Carol, Janina and I made sure that we maxed out out cards, drain the ATM machine of all its content, try on every single dress and shoes and eat as much Mango with Sticky Rice that we could find.

We girls had only 5 hours of sleep each day, even if our feet had swollen up to a size bigger, our shopping elbow almost broke off and our eyes had ready to pop out, it is a wonderful experience to be traveling with friends who do not have a budget and who laugh at all my tactless and filthy green jokes.

Anyway, Bangkok, to those who have not been, is all about shopping and good food. Even the street vendors who sell noodle soup, grilled fish balls, squid, fruits and fresh juices are actually delectable but extremely cheap. It's a good quick tummy filler if you don't want to stop shopping.

We went to all the malls in the area. Paragon, Central World, Big C, MBK, Central, Siam and as if that wasn't enough, we took our aching legs and pockets even to the streets.

Next shopping weekend spree, SINGAPORE!

The steet life becomes alive with vendors around 11 pm to 2 am. You can find t-shirts, tank tops, watches, home accessories, shoes, toys and food.

The fruits are sweet and very clean. A healthy way to energize!

This photo was taken at midnight so traffic isn't that bad but on normal days, bumper to bumper.






The finer side of Bangkok...This was taken at Paragon. The newest luxury mall in Bangkok. All the expensive brands are located in this mall and my friend who owns a jewellery store here told me that their rent is Baht 1,000,000 a month. That is CRAZY SH_T!

Mitzi treated the girls to gelatto! Kob kun kaa! (Thank you in Thai).


In the menu, this drink says, Strawberry Flappe...(no, I didn't mispell this one). But it was sooooo good.




MASSAGE took away the body aches, temporarily. This was in Siam. Baht300/hour for foot massage. Tip should be Baht 50.



This is what happens when you put 5 girls together and an unlimited budget.

And THIS is what we end up having for dinner because all the restaurants closed on us.

The girls of Bangkok..
