After I'm in something like flying "holidays at home" (and the ETH-graduation trip in Istanbul), I I am now back on the way back to Tokyo for my master's thesis. However, since these began in April, I made an intermediate stop for a breath of Indochina to breathe.
so I stopped in Bangkok and took the train to the south to Chumphon, where sister Sarah and I met Stefan. Snorkeling around there, we were mainly in the coral and noodle soups. Back in Bangkok we were dancing around with the Lady Boys, we tailor made suits and other (less offensive) things.
Anyway, I then moved to the northeast after Ayutthaya , The former royal residence of Siam (Thailand earlier) and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. I explored the temples there with the bike, which at least brought some chilly wind. Then look for in the Khao Yai National Park to Ruesseltiere (especially elephants), but only to find their excrement. And from there I went to the Cambodian border.
In these 10 days I saw Thailand as a very intensive country. There is everything and then somehow still in a very highly developed. It starts with everyday things such as eating. Everything is either totally hot or salty. And the drinks are so sweet, that despite great thirst for the first sip was enough of it.
This is in stark contrast to Japan, which traditionally focus on the essentials, the fish is best enjoyed raw and ungewuerzt.
