Visited Bangkok, Thailand earlier this year...

The city is very nice and well developed. Even with it's high density, traffic is not as big as a problem as here in Manila due to a good network of roads and elevated highways within the city itself. :car:

Weather was warm but about the same as here. :weathermanf2:

Thai ladies were pretty & very "friendly". :naughty2:

I also noticed a lot of shopping malls there... including places which reminded me of celfone, personal electronics, etc. tiangges here in Metro Manila but much much bigger. :insomnia:

They say that in Thailand, if they're pretty, they're not ladies....

One thing I love about Hong Kong is that it is so tourist friendly. It is so easy to plan your own tour of Hong Kong with some time spent on the internet. Getting around is also convenient with the MTR, buses and trams.

Thai ladies have this general perception and strong confidence that they are beautiful. I think it starts from within. Even the women in the Karen Tribe (Long Neck, equivalent to our Indigenous People) and even the kids thought so. Women ought to be beautiful. i have been to the remote villages of Chiang Mai, where the refugees from myanmar have their resettlement, that's where i saw ladies who believe that the longer your neck would be the more beautiful you become. the same is true with another tribe whose beauty lies in bigger earring piercings/holes.

i like Chiang Mai better than Bangkok. Although i like Thailand in general. di nanaga ang mga taxi drivers. above all else, i love Thai food, esp. tom yum and when i want it in medium spice, i just say Mai phet! ( idunno if this is how it is spelled).

[ab_initio]

Memorable places:
1. Angkor Wat, Cambodia
2. Borubudur and Bali, Indonesia

my dream destinations. hanap lang ng timing. all my sputniks have been to these places. i am still mustering enough courage to get to these places alone.

^^Sir NICOLODEON, tourist friendly ba ang mga to?

France and Italy are the more interesting countries in Europe for me.

Bali, Indonesia is tourist friendly. You can find packaged tours going there easily enough. It just got a bad rap due to the bombings then the asia tsunami disaster.

I went to Sydney and Melbourne in Australia a couple of years ago. Just bought the tickets and booked the hotels and airport transfers online. Everything else was just planned by researching what stuff to do like signing up on day-tours there or even just using the mass transport (like the train or trams) to get to places.

It was only for under two weeks but it was very relaxed because I could go where I wanted and stay longer in places if I liked.

Or so I heard... Sabi ng dad ko pinaka ok nga yung Italy pinaka ayaw naman nya Spain mas nagustuhan pa nya yung Portugal...

i've never been to any european countries too. my first in the list is Vienna, Austria and maybe its neighboring countries like Hungary and Romania.

Or so I heard... Sabi ng dad ko pinaka ok nga yung Italy pinaka ayaw naman nya Spain mas nagustuhan pa nya yung Portugal...

i see...gusto ko pa naman sana ang mga Spangol...bunch of happy people.

I have worked in the following countries:

1) Indonesia (Indonesians are a very friendly people. Pinoys are highly respected.)

2) Japan [High tech society. First time I have seen a toilet with many push buttons. Experienced winter (snow!) for the first time. Tokyo Disneyland (long wait standing in line for a short ride). Japanese corporate culture has many quirks.]

3) Hongkong (Crowded. Pinays converging at Central park on Sundays.)

4) China (Short business trip / visit to a huge factory).

5) Singapore (Excellent urban planning, public service and public transportation. Sad to say, for a Tsikoteer of modest means, their government discourages car ownership by taxation - you have to pay for the right to own a car. Presently working there.)
