Day as a Bangkok local

I met up with my old tour leader Sita today to hang out in Bangkok. She happened to be in between tours so perfect timing. Having been before, it was nice to not do anything touristy and just chill out.

First thing we headed to an island in the Chao Phraya River to do some biking. I haven’t ridden a bike in years so thankfully Sita was very patient with me and coached as well so the return trip was quicker. I managed to do ok but should probably keep practicing. I was nervous about balance and then she noticed I needed to use my arms more to keep the steering straight.

For lunch, we decided to go on an adventure to the west side of the city to Bubble In The Forest. It’s quite an Instagrammable place with very blue water and chill out huts. We sat at the top of a two story treehouse like structure which also had nets you could lie in.

Food was great and there were great mocktail options as well! Transport options not great as you’ll need either a taxi or grab to get here.

What else to do to relax like a local? Taking in a movie! On screen, Transformers! Really enjoyed it and a great way to end the day 😄Read more
