CHOK DEE, FOR YOUR TRAVEL IN THAILAND: With Alonso, visiting the temples of Wat arund, hung out on Khao San Road

The Chao Phraya River, the temples of Wat Arun, the Chatuchak Market, but also a walk on the Khao San Road. Are you with me in Thailand, and I offer them my short travel notes, before returning to Europe. Certainly, I’ll bring in Spain something material – which is not difficult, gizonzolando markets of Bangkok – but most precious commodity is in my eyes: colors, all the amazing range of colors of Asia, as enclosed in a casket, in this country where people smile even Alonso (my name).

Meeting Benches gives me little space, so I will be synthetic, if you decide to come here: you must have a passport with 6 months validity remaining, your driver’s license can be used, better not go in provincedi Si Sa Ket. A travel memory? An umbrella hand-painted, or a fan; a wooden Buddha, but also beautiful puppets, or a frog that croaks (you can go to the market of Mae Sot).

Some Thai word, just to survive: yes, no (chai, chai ever); well thanks (sa bai dee); I do not understand (never kao chai); how much does that cost? (nee tao rai in?); the bill (gep Taang). If you decide to go to Thailand, I wish you good luck in the local language: chok dee, by Alonso.
