Bangkok travelogue



I have been counting down to this short getaway for the longgggggest time and i'm feeling a little down now that it's over so quickly, but really really glad to have forged unforgettable memories again with my dearest grad trip buddies :) so happy we decided to travel together again..reminds me of the times we woke up to each other every single day and to a new city almost every 2 or 3 days during our 1 month grad trip around europe last year :):) we should keep this our yearly tradition! ^^

As this trip to Bangkok was really short (only 3 days 2 nights), we spent most of our time exploring the different shopping areas, and of course, eating our hearts out :) really loved all the Thai street food that we tried out..i'm salivating just thinking about all the yummy food now!

Shopping areas we visited: Platinum Fashion Mall, Union Mall, Siam Night Market, Terminal 21

Favourite part of Bangkok: Chatuchak Market!







This was the four of us collapsing on the floor at the train station after we conquered Chatuchak! HAHA the weather was really insanely hot, i felt so sunburnt!! But soooo happy weaving through the different alleys within Chatuchak and finally trying the coconut ice cream i have heard so many people talk about! 

On the last day, Li Ting and I explored some cafes at Seen Space at Thong Lor and the shopping mall Terminal 21 while the guys helped us get goods at MBK plus went for their Thai massages and i'm really glad we made a trip down to explore the cafes :)

Mr Jones' Orphanage:









To be honest, I was a little disappointed with the food served but I was sooooo in love with Mr Jones' Orphanage's interior design! So much love put into all the details in the cafe, and everything was just so adorable :D definitely recommend paying the outlet at Seen Space a visit!

And..before we left for the airport, Li Ting and i were so happy when the guys found and bought coconut ice cream for the both of us greedy girls! Hehe Li Ting even walked all the way out again just to get a second cup of ice cream..i never fail to be amazed by her love for ice cream! HAHA :) i remember wayne and her eating almost 10 scoops of gelato without fail in italy every single day!!!


Time to go home :'( It was a really quick and simple trip, but i was so happy :) already cant wait for our next getaway together!



Ending off with a picture of my most favourite travel companion :) hehe ^^
