Bangkok: it's all about the money

Wow! Bangkok is crazy. We met so many travelers who actually didn't like Bangkok. We decided to return to Thailand and check it out for ourselves. And guess what, we loved it.

Dimitri invested in transport engineering expertise and hired a mototaxi to cruise around the city. Check out these pictures!
The movie is even better ;)

Anyways! We got a cool surprise in Bangkok, when Nudjaree, the Thai cook school master of Dimitri, showed up. Of course, we never found a restaurant which could reach our own Thai cooking skills, but we forgave them all during our visits in the several temples.


We couldn't ignore the sex industry. Under supervision of Anne, we ended up in a kind of bar where enthusiastic girls were trying to dance in such a way we would become particularly interested in having a (paid) conversation with them. We can assure you: we only had conversations without paying. Many old men are hooking up with (way too young) girls and as the song goes, it's clearly 'all about the money'. We were kinda shocked, and decided to behave well and suit up - wait for it - literally:

Suit up!

So we went to one of the best tailors in Bangkok, Armani Tailors Studio. We gifted ourselves with trousers and shirts. Since these guys are not only super friendly and professional and they provided us with high quality clothes, we can only recommend you to pay them a visit when you'll be in Bangkok one day.

Bangkok is busy, bustling, bangelijk.

This is some really good advice for someone not familiar with the tailoring industry in Bangkok. Fashion Galleria is a step above the rest especially for the quality they offer. The shirts and trousers that they stitch are perfect in size and fit while their rate are also highly reasonable. So they surely offer you good value for your money.
