Bangkok has been spectacular. So spectacular I haven’t had time to blog and/or even go online.  When I was in Bangkok a month or two ago I hated it. I found it sleazy, and dirty, and not my type of city, but suddenly that’s all changed.

It’s another world here. A grown up world. And if one takes it for what it is, it’s truly an incredible city. A completely different world from the one I’m used to. It’s touristy. And exciting. And dirty. And delicious. And currently Christmas is in overdrive here.

Really, I rather love it here (despite being a beach, small-city type of gal) and could actually see myself living here!

A huge reason I’ve found a new love for Bangkok is because of the people I’ve met. From traveling for the last few months I’ve come to the conclusion the actual city itself has little to do with my love or hate for it, but rather it’s the people I meet (and weather), that create experiences good or bad.  I’ve met some of the best people I’ve met since I left home this time around in Bangkok. Which in turn has left me rolling into my sketchy hostel bed around 3am every morning, with tears in my eyes from laughing at fellow traveler’s tales, and my own.

I leave Bangkok in the morning…

Where to next Little Blog? I’m not quite sure…
