Hi everyone,
Been reading this forum a while, some might say "lurking" and I decided to ask you guys for help along the way if that's ok.
Well, here I am—Bangkok! After a 12-hour flight, I’m finally here, and wow, this place hits you the moment you step out of the airport. The heat, the humidity, and the smell of street food wafting through the air—it’s overwhelming but amazing at the same time.
I checked into a small hotel near Sukhumvit Road, and the area is buzzing. There are colorful lights, street vendors shouting to get your attention, and the smell of grilled meat and spices everywhere. Speaking of which, I tried my first Pad Thai from a street stall. Delicious, but I think I might’ve accidentally eaten a chili. My tongue is still on fire!
Now, here’s where I need help. I want to dive into the city without just doing all the touristy stuff. What are some unique experiences in Bangkok that you think I shouldn’t miss? Bonus points if they involve food or places to meet some interesting people!
