The mantra is SLOW

I met a Japanese guy in a guesthouse near Khaosan Road. He had been in Bangkok since before Christmas.

According to him, he worked very hard in Japan. When he was in Bangkok, he spent his days drinking and sleeping.

The Japanese traveler and I


I had just six days in Thailand. My journey was as follows:

Compared to people who join package tour, I definitely had been to fewer places. I missed out Pattaya and crocodile farm, for example.

But I don’t regret. I am a working adult who study part-time. Like the Japanese guy in Khaosan, I had a hectic lifestyle. When I am on vacation, I just want to relax. I want to slow down…

    I thought you have been to Thailand? OK, it is not wrong to go there a few more times. After all the LOS is near here and it is not an expensive destination.

    Khao San is an exciting place, but I think it is a bit touristy.
