Bangkok - Thailand

BANGKOK- The crazy mecca for travelers!
We arrived in Bangkok and had planned to stay for 5 days to really see the city, and we did! Bangkok is a really nice city, once you leave the backpacker area.

Llegamos a la capital de Tailandia, Bangkok, una ciudad que tiene de todo! Recorrimos los templos, fuimos de compras, salimos de noche, vimos el boxeo tailandes y pasamos unos 5 dias muy divertidos.
Ahora vamos a poner en pausa Tailandia para ir a Birmania 2 semanas y despues volver.

A typical Tuk Tuk, they hound you everywhere you go- "You need tuk tuk? Where you go?"
