One thing NZ passport holders don't often realise is how easy travel is for us. Most places we can just show up with our passports and they'll let us in. Chinese passport holders are not always so lucky. Our intended destination is Taiwan, but with a strained relationship between Taiwan and mainland China, China is not allowing their citizens to fly direct to Taiwan. For us, this meant a little side quest to Bangkok.
We've spent a couple of nights in Bangkok, and we didn't do a lot with our time here. It has felt a bit like "just another city" for us. The main event has been the food and drink. With a wide range of good food and iced tea, we made the most of it.
The rest of our time here has been spent hiding inside air conditioned malls to get away from the 35 degree heat and 10 thousand percent humidity outside. We even took time out to watch the new Deadpool and Wolverine movie (really good).
旅行者It was the humidity that made it unbearable, also maybe the Thai habit of cranking the air condition down to about 15 - so the contrast is pretty intense

旅行者Don't complain about the temperature, you've got highs of 15-16 to look forward to on your return and under 10 overnight if you go out
