Yesterday reach BKK, today going Khao Yai . Weather super good, where the haze 😂

Yup clear blue skies when i was there. Irony is that news of the facemask going out of stock there but in the 5 days i was there i nv see a single person wearing it.

Also until May there is heatwave and will only get more and more hot morethan 30 deg in thailand so good luck of you go there

Lucky i am back and not going again

Haha it’s a bit complicated from Suvarnabhumi for grab. But after a few times you will get used to where to wait for pick up. Sometimes is also driver blur.

Yup, grab driver sometimes blur ...
if book my own driver would usually wait at exit 4 ...
then he would bring us to the carpark and then drive us to the hotel ...

What's the most convenient cashless payment mode/apps to use in Bangkok at the moment? I'm travelling there soon and want to minimise cash usage. Thanks!

I'll say BKK is still a very cash society ba.
How u expect street stall to be cashless.
Unless u atas only eat restaurant then u probably can pay with cc lo.

Somewhere not planned and not in bucket list just to clear leave vs somewhere you want to go. Thats the diff. I am sure bali wont be as hot as bangkok. Nothing much is bangkok, Bali got rice terrace and more
