It’s hot in Bangkok. Temperatures run up to 36 degrees celsius and on some days it feels like 44 degrees celsius. Everything slows down in Bangkok.

Sometimes a place so close can seem so far and when you finally get there, you wonder what kept you from visiting sooner. My work this year has given me the opportunity to travel to many South East Asian countries (as some might say “regional” travel) and though most days you miss the comfort of…

There’s a road in the old part of Bangkok (now often called Rattanakosin Island), that I enjoy visiting not only for the food but also for the ambiance. This row of old shop houses has stood the test of time and now caters to a young and funkier crowd that I guess would never have crossed the original…
