Bangkok Itinerary (2/5/15-5/5/15)

Hello! I'm back again. Recently there had been some issues which I had to take care of and glad to say that I'm clear of what I want now. Just hoping to find a new replacement for my current room right now. I really want to get out from there. Living alone is really bad especially when your pay is just enough for you to survive and yet you're required to make certain financial commitments. Some people or should I say, spoiled brats, just wouldn't understand this because they still receive financial support from their parents. Good for you but good luck to you in the future though.

Anyways, enough of that. Let's talk about something happy! I've finally completed my itinerary for Bangkok and I'm dying to share it here. It's just a draft and it's not finalised yet. This trip would be a really short one so I really hope to incorporate some shopping and also sight-seeing in it. A tough one because JH and the brother don't deal well with the sun. Haha. So more shopping and less sight-seeing I guess. :P

Flight in the morning on our last day so our only plan for that day is to wake up and go straight to the airport.

I'll update the details of the trip once the trip is over! Hopefully 2 months from now I'm still as free as I am right now because I did all the drafting and researching of the trip during work. HAHA. The pro of being a junior auditor in an internal audit department is that you really have almost close to nothing to do.

Let me show you the hotel we're staying. We're staying at At Mind Executive Suites at Sukhumvit. Good reviews on Agoda and Booking.com so I really hope it doesn't disappoint. However, if I were to go to Bangkok again, I would probably stay at Siam area because most of the major shopping malls are near there. But I'm still happy with my choice though. No regrets for now. :)

These are the websites which helped me a lot throughout my process of drafting my itinerary.

You can find information on the BTS SkyTrain fare and route maps on these two websites.

You can find the complete guide of public transports in Bangkok, or how to transfer to and from the airport on this website.

I hope that the information helps! :)

  1. Just spend your day at chatuchak, nothing much to see or shop at MBK, MBK is just like our prangin mall.
