Thailand makes people, like me, forget what is "normal and safe".
I was monitoring pollution number in Bangkok and they were high. Now I'm near On Nut BTS - one of the busiest and polluted spot in Bangkok - and I like it!
I guess I checked my brain at the door... I am alive! I love the action, smells (food), energy of young AND old people on the streets and so on. Only 1% speaks English! Now I'm in Thailand.
I hear Chiang Mai is even more polluted yet very popular. I may go to see it too.
My regular place, Jomtien, was/is cemetery quiet compared to this hell hole 😉
Only ONE motobike revving at night, as reported here, 1 000 000+ in Bangkok.
It's a win-win to me. Got to see REAL Bangkok and when tired of this I appreciate Jomtien more. When is that? I donno, just paid 7 more days...
