Bangkok
The grand palace
Some photos from when we visited the Grand Palace. It´s a complex of temples, art, buddahs and old halls in the middle of Bangkok. Within the walls lies most important temple in thai history. Wat Phra Kaew. This Grand Palace is made in perfection. WOOOW! No wonder the king stayed here for 150 years. It is
tuktuk
tuktuk är ett kostigt sätt att färdas på. det går läskigt fort och är farligt som attans. det är dyrt och man blir lurad både på pengar och till dyra kostymbutiker och massageställen. ändå åker vi det. har gamla minnen från när jag var sex och var i thailand för första gången. på tiden innan

shopping in Bangkok
Bangkok has some amazing shopping! You just have to look further than Khaosan Road. Our best advice is to take a cab or the skytrain (Mo Chit Station) to Chatuchak weekend market. It one of the largest in the world with over 10 000 market stalls. I was there for the first time two months

the reds
when we got the bangkok again the other day we got straight into the demonstrations. redshirts everywhere and a hell of a crazy mess. pretty scary with humves driving around everywhere and military armed with machineguns in every intersection. so the italian girl we shared a cab with freaked out. and the taxidriver wanted to
back in bangkok
man kan nog inte undvika bangkok. ingen vill leva eller vara här men ändå har staden 12 miljoner invånare. eller 18. ingen vet riktigt. vi ville inte tillbaka hit. ändå sitter vi här i en park mellan några buddhistiska tempel. vi har hittat vårt smultronställe och här känns det verkligen inte som bangkok. linn ligger
one day as a thai

khosan road
the city of angels. the city of amazing tastes. the city of markets, colours, life and people. 12 million of them. this is just one out of bangkoks 1000 square kilometers of streets. and thats the areal of the streets only. bangkok is huge.
