high up with a great view
do you think this is a nicely designed building?
finally a well organized bus line in Bangkok
Khao San Road has become a fairly expensive backpacker paradise? oxymoron. great place to buy a fake ID card if you feel you need one (don’t recommend using it)
yes, it is what it says
a very active place even at night, maybe especially at night
Getting on the plane for Laos
You can ride all the way Laos if your train schedules match up
In Laos, how to destroy the environment
Duck/Beer restaurant in Vientiane. if you park on the street to the left you have no parking fee. if you park in the restaurant parking lot you have to pay a parking fee. seems to be reversed from logic.
