Yesterday I had meetup with my travel buddy Jset. We toured Thailand back when we were in with the ESL industry. She was with the administration head I an inexperienced teacher. I honestly don't know how we become best of friend considering she was a planner and I a happy go lucky one.
What we did while in Thailand?
A. Tried the night market
B Tasted their street foods like the scorpion and locust in batter, with chili sauce
C. Visited temples with their golden Buddha.
Learned more about Thai massage there too
D. Visited the floating market
E. Went for a sumptuous buffet dinner at the revolving towers of Biyoke the tallest building in Thailand courtesy of our lady boss who shares our passion for travel.
Thailans is a place that would remind you of Philippines with its streetvendor and the motorcycle ride they call "tuktuk".Save for the monks and the golden Buddha it pretty feels like home as we do have those peddlers on boat at the countryside just not as known to tourist as in Thailand .The markers Sella better quality fashion and cheaper at that than Philippines divisoria.
So because we both love travelling and dining promoting steemit was a whole lot easier since rewards from this platform might not interest her much as she's gainfully employed and do a lot of freelancing online as well. But since she will have an operation I hope somehow this platform helps her.I wish to return all the favors she did me when I was sick myself. Real friends do are hard to find these days.
So please enjoy our video as well as photo a S we sojourn this beautiful country of Thailand.
I realized when you travel with friends you just don't discover the customs or tradition of their history you pretty discover also yourself and test those relationships as no matte this planned troubles can come along the way. In the end, you get a better picture of the world and yourself.
A. Temple visits
If you notice, their temple grounds are sacred places with dress code and no slippers allowed. Filipinos can learn much from this as we often go to church as if we're going to the beach or something.
I just love how ornately decorate the roof are and how crafter with so much devotion the Buddha are.
B. The floating market and 360 degrees revolving towers
We had sumptuous international cuisine and had 360degrees view experience after. It was an adrenaline rush considering I am scared of height.
The floating market was interesting as unlike in my country they cook meals in these boats. The water though is not as clear as what we have known our country. Maybe because when we went there it was rainy season.
C. Of elephants and crocodiles
In our third day we also went to a sanctuary for elephants. We dined at their halls then watched elephant polo games
D. The airport
The airport was very impressive as every airport should be. From its airport you'd got a feeling the adventure that awaits you.
And I left with the realization that Thailand is a favorite tourist destination because it has beautiful beaches,rich history, lovely people and a faith that is reflective in everything they do.
Jset is yet to make her account I know like many people I will be inviting to this platform they will contribute largely to making this platform more awesome one with their interesting stories of their daily living and other interests.
Let's spread love by inviting people we care about to the platform. This platform had so much to offer. Share it.
