    Maeklong Station

    2023年7月24日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 26 °C

    The Maeklong Railway Market is the place to go for a shopping experience like no other. Here is everything you need to know before you visit this market in Thailand.

    You will hear the train long before you actually see it, as the average speed on the track is 30kmph (19mph). The vendors and merchants collectively and coolly begin to move their belongings and umbrellas away from the tracks as the train barrels forward, honking on its horn every now and then to warn people of its approach. This is why the market is also known as the “umbrella pulldown market”.

    First Durian Coffee. Tastes strange but good.
    And now I wait for the train and the spectacle.    もっと詳しく

    Floating Market Damnoen Saduk

    2023年7月24日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    This 100-year-old market, the most famous in the country, is now primarily a floating souvenir stand.
    It is rainy season and therefore hardly any tourists are here. Funnily enough, the vast majority of tourists are the Thais themselves.
    Behind the market are quiet canals in residential areas that you can explore leisurely with a rented boat about 100 baht per person.    もっと詳しく

    Ayutthaya Wat Mahathat

    2023年7月24日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 32 °C

    As one of the most visited sites in Thailand, Ayutthaya was the capital of the Siam kingdom in Thailand from 1350 to 1767. The entire old city is a UNESCO World Heritage site and there are hundreds of temples and ruins to visit. The Ayutthaya Historical Park, with the temples, palaces, monasteries, and statues is atmospheric and easy to navigate.

    It’s about 80 kilometers (50 miles) by road from Bangkok to Ayutthaya and the minivans from Bangkok to Ayutthaya are one of the easiest ways to go from Bangkok to Ayutthaya. It takes about 2 hours to go from Bangkok to Ayutthaya by van and there are LOTS that go backward and forwards each day. Most vans have air conditioning and some have WiFi. They depart throughout the day from various bus stations like Mo Chit, Khao San, and Makasan, so you will be able to find a van that is leaving from close to where you’re staying in Bangkok. If you arrive at a bus station to take a van to Ayutthaya then you’ll need to confirm the price and pay in cash.    もっと詳しく

    Ayutthaya#2 Moments

    2023年7月24日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 32 °C

    Moments. Turning away from the flow.
    The place is beautiful. The ruins and the big Buddha are impressive. Still, I have been to Angkor Watt. And nothing compares to Angkor Watt.
    Therefore, in the 2 temple complex, it is mainly my snapshots that touch me.
    It is the moments, away from the masses. Guided by the now and here.
    My best and happiest moments on this trip I always had alone, against the flow, against the crowd. Leaving the path regularly, that is my life. In private as well as in professional life. And even if these paths are often bumpy, the road to take easier, it is the moments in which I am happy. And grateful to see the world a little differently.    もっと詳しく

    I had the courage

    2023年7月24日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    Today was a long day, since 14h I am on the road. It is not the time to take a cab, the streets of Bangkok are closed. Just as I at BCM want to take the BTS, a motorcycle taxi driver approaches me.
    At first I refuse, but change my mind. 300 Baht he wants to Ekkamai. That is CHF/Euro 7.50. Really usurious. Twice as much as the cab this morning.
    100 baht more as the TukTuk yesterday! Whole 7x as much as the BTS.
    But I do it!

    Well, he puts on a helmet, I don't get one. Then it goes up to 65/h.
    Like a flea, from one lane to the other. Snaking through the traffic jam. I hold on, not sure if I'll survive. But I've never been home that fast.
    The scenery was sensational. The wind in my hair too.
    In a quiet moment I can film a little.    もっと詳しく

    Bangkok Resume

    2023年7月25日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

    Unintentionally wanted I have now stayed 5 days in Bangkok. I love this city. Regularly I was an hour or longer on the road to get to a place.
    In Switzerland we live in other dimensions. In one hour I would be in Zurich. And it would never occur to me to go to Zurich for some street food... Here I do it.

    The days were wonderful. I almost always slept in, walked over 12,000 steps a day, saw a lot, shopped for nothing, and ate wonderfully.

    The city is incredibly noisy, but relaxed. The people extremely nice. There are several large shopping centers, none attracted me. The alternating alleys and skyscrapers offer enough wonderful architecture, green spaces, street life, culture, history....

    Now it's on to tomorrow. And totally in the here and now, I should be concerned with the next few days. The only thing I know today is that tomorrow 11.40 am my flight to Trat goes. With destination Koh Chang.    もっと詳しく

    Airport +Pier Trat/Ferry Koh Chang

    2023年7月26日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

    It was hard for me to leave my small apartment in BKK.
    And I was much too early at the airport.
    Like everywhere currently in Thailand, it has almost no tourists. Also the traffic was ok. I ordered a cab via Grab and needed from Ekkamai to Suvarnabhumi just under 40 minutes. With luggage and early in the morning I did not feel like taking the BTS.
    Online check in and baggage check took less than 5 minutes. The security check another 10 minutes. So I was already 1h after departure from the apartment at the gate.

    Today would have been originally my flight home. Unexpectedly I have the luck to have next month also still free. And therefore I dropped the return flight and bought a ticket to Trat instead. Bangkok-Airways flies to this idyllic airport. The airport is not much more than open bamboo buildings. There is a tiny open waiting area where the airport staff hands you your suitcase directly. There were not 20 passengers on the plane.
    For 2000 Baht, which is about 50 CHF /Euro I saved myself a long bus ride. On the approximately 1 hour flight, there was even a warm Malzeit, water and cafe!
    Destination was Koh Chan. Directly behind the waiting area you can find minivans that take you from the airport to the pier, then onto the ferry and on Koh Chan directly to your accommodation.
    This for about 500Baht. (CHF/Euro 12.-)    もっと詳しく

    Koh Chang: Paradise Cottage

    2023年7月26日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C

    I have accommodated myself in a simple accommodation. I wanted to go to the sea, a bungalow directly on the beach, hammocks, a pool, a small nice bar and good food. And as always, I do not like to pay extortionate prices.

    My accommodation is a bungalow in Paradise Cottage, Lonely Beach.This small resort is run by a super sweet Thai. My bungalow costs incl Air Con and WiFi around 790Baht (CHF/Euro 20) per night. This is expensive, but understandable due to the beachfront.
    I'm staying here for sure until August 30.

    For the next few days I have rented a scooter. With it I can explore the island from tomorrow!

    Today I was with it only to 7/11 driven. Water and a Megapack of my hot-loved Seaweed chips!    もっと詳しく

    #1 Lunch by the Chill

    2023年7月27日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

    A beautiful hotel. And about 10 times more expensive than mine. For around CHF/Euro 200 a night you can stay here.
    The lobby is beautiful and was the reason I stopped.

    I tried the restaurant. This is also very expensive. Around 900 baht for a Nam Tok (spicy sliced mead salad with ground roasted rice, dried chili, shallots, spring onions, Peppermint with a Tai dressing) and a Daiquiri with strawberries and mango.
    It tasted delicious, both😎    もっと詳しく

    #1 Dinner @ home

    2023年7月27日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C

    Laab Gai❤️

    Chicken chopped, cilantro, mint, scallions, onions, chilies, rice grains(roasted), limes, fish sauce. With rice.

    I come to the bar in paradise . An older Thai man sits there, where otherwise the sweet Thai woman sits.
    I am hungry and study the menu card. I feel like a salad, something light and fresh. WS I am looking for I do not find. The older man asks me what I prefer: Thai food or Western food.
    Sure Thaifood!!!
    I explain him what I ag and he suggests me a menu, which is not on the map. And I order it.
    He asks me my level for spiciness. I medium for Thai. He looks at me in disbelief and goes to the kitchen again.
    What comes next is just unbelievably good.
    This gives me an idea: I could order my lived Thai donats, rice and mango for my breakfast tomorrow. Real Thai food halt🤷🏽‍♀️.    もっと詳しく

    #2 ❤️Klong Kloi Beach❤️

    2023年7月28日, タイ ⋅ 🌬 29 °C

    All the way to Malaysia along the Gulf Coast, that's my plan. And I started on the east coast on Koh Chang.

    The Koh Chang archipelago consists of 52 paradise islands, which are under nature protection.

    With steep, jungle-covered mountains, Koh Chang (Elephant Island) has retained its wild, remote character.

    This is one of the most beautiful beaches, ever.
    The west coast is by far the most developed part of the island. The reason is the beaches that line the coast. And yet it is so pristine. If you like to experience the real and original, you should definitely visit this beach on Koh Chang    もっと詳しく

    #3 Another day in paradise

    2023年7月29日, タイ ⋅ 🌧 28 °C

    Another day in paradise. I have extended by one night and will not travel further until tomorrow.
    It is now winter. Monsoon time. The wind is always blowing. The sky is mostly cloudy. Nevertheless, it is pleasantly warm. I am almost the only tourist and absolutely in love with this corner of the world.

    Wild, pristine, peaceful, friendly. Elephants in front of the 7/11 and monkeys on the street.
    Covid has done a lot to the island. In contrast to Koh Samui, Koh Pagnan or Phuket, the island was a kind of insider tip before Covid. If you are looking for luxury, you are wrong here. Who likes jungle, waterfalls, beaches, Mangeoven forests, the wild and honest, is right here. If you like diving and snorkeling, you have to come here.

    After Covd, still only a few people come here. A few remote workers enjoy a special workplace here with spectacular views. Many establishments are closed. Not a few say "business for sale. The island has few own inhabitants. They are Thais from other parts of the country who did business here. During Covid they could not pay the rents anymore and left the island. Once again, I will have a hard time leaving a place tomorrow....    もっと詳しく

    Byebye Koh Chang

    2023年7月31日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    The island was exactly what I needed. Tranquility, roughness, a little hippie vibes. Nature. No tourists. Good food. Very chilled out.
    One of the most beautiful places I've ever had the pleasure to visit.

    I'm thinking about coming here again at the end of the year.

    It is time to say goodbye to the island. Today morning I leave. In 21 days I will meet Chun in Singapore. 21 days are flying by and I am running out of time. Is time to move on to Malaysia. But I still have a personal mission to do in Hua Hin first😊    もっと詳しく

    Pattaya!

    2023年7月31日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C

    I don't like to travel more than 7 hours, so, on the way to Hua Hin I make an overnight stay in Pattaya.
    Via 12goasia.com I bought a ferry and bus ticket from Koh Chang to Pattaya for 650 Bath.

    I am from paradise. No matter where I would be now, it would not be good! The hotel is a last minute super deal on Booking.com. It is not the paradise, but very good.

    Who knows me, knows that I am planning the longest trip of my life: Life after work. Also that Thailand as a destination is my favorite.
    I like the north of Thailand very much. I could live well in Chiang Mai, but I would miss the sea there...
    Although I like Bangkok, I would not like to live permanently in a big city. During my research I came across Hua Hin. The first resort of Thailand. And by no one less than the King.
    There is a large community of expads living here.
    I will meet with realtors and have them show me properties, houses, apartments. I want to get a feel for the real estate market.

    And by the way, it's winter. Winter and still 29degrees warm. I have experienced 3x rain on the whole trip. Short and heavy. Then it was over again.
    If that means winter I am right here.    もっと詳しく

    Happie 1. August

    2023年8月1日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    Slept in.
    At 7:30 I stand at the bus station and get my ticket Pattaya -Hua Hin.
    The ticket I only pick up, because I already bought it online a few days ago. So there would have been more than enough time to get another Ice Coffee. The first time none of the stands sell coffee.... Also hardly anything has open.... Not only Switzerland but also Thailand celebrates a national holiday!
    30 days on the road. I'm celebrating today! And I'll be on the road all day.

    I never had so much space in a bus!    もっと詳しく
