One of the most rewarding do-it-yourself adventures in Krabi is taking a day trip to Railay Beach. This beach owns many accolades, often touted as one of the best in Asia. It is unaccessible from the mainland, no roads, no cars, but a simple and fun journey from Ao Nang. […]

When visiting the south of Thailand, a favorite activity is to take a boat ride to other islands! Krabi is a province attached to the mainland on the Andaman Sea, it’s most popular town is Ao Nang right on the beach. There are numerous islands off its coast visible from […]

Experiencing Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park was the highlight of my trip to Thailand. Sublime views and wildlife encounters made hiking in the land known as mountain with three hundred peaks unforgettable. From incredible caves, to nearly 2,000’ tall limestone hills jutting out of the earth, and the largest […]

At first, I was hesitant to go to Chinatown in Yaowarat Bangkok because I was dedicated to eating purely Thai cuisine. Then I thought, how silly? Ethnic food is some of the most interesting to indulge in, and Chinese is Bangkok’s largest immigrant population. In the late 1700s, the Chinese […]

On our last night in Bangkok my sister in law who is from the city picked the fanciest restaurant we experienced in the country. Bua Restaurant in the Silom neighborhood was fantastic. The restaurant was comfortably cool from the air conditioning, clean, bright, waitstaff was efficient, and most importantly – […]

Absolutely the grittiest market I have ever been to, browsers beware. Khlong Toei Market is not for the faint of heart. It is a wet market filled with all of the ingredients needed to fill up a local Thai’s pantry, no tourists were in sight. Don’t wear your favorite flip […]

A historic venue open since 1900, Nang Loeng Market was sleepy in the late afternoon. It’s best to visit at lunch time to have the most selection. Wandering around the rows many were closing down, but the one I was hoping to visit was still kicking. Khao Gaeng Rattana is […]

Gleaming white floors. Bright white lights. Or Tor Kor is cleaner than any other market in Bangkok, by far. Home to the products that upscale restaurant owners search for their own ingredients, foodies flock to have a taste. Aisles filled with fresh and colorful produce, ripe as can be. Best […]

If you need a break from the street food scene in Bangkok, you better take it here. Thip Samai is known for having the best Pad Thai in the city, who knows if that’s true, but they could fool me. The restaurant opens up at 5PM daily and a line […]

Pad Thai at Thip Samai, Bangkok

I’ll be frank. I thought if I was going to get food poisoning anywhere, it would have been at Tom Yum Goong Banglamphu. We came off hour for a late lunch, so only one or two other local people were dining. It was quiet and very…rustic. Located not far from […]

Food in Bangkok is so incredible, it is with the greatest honor that I dub Nhong Rim Klong as my favorite meal in the city. It isn’t in the main hub of Bangkok, but worth making the trek out. It was perfect after visiting the Airplane Graveyard, also way out […]

Bangkok is a consumer’s paradise. Whether you’re looking for a thrifty bargain in the heat of an outdoor market, or high end items at a posh air-conditioned mall, leave room in your suitcase. Surprisingly, I really couldn’t smell a strong fragrance emanating from Pak Khlong Talat, Bangkok’s 24/7 Flower Market. […]
