I'm intrigued as to what the world has to offer. The bizarre, cheesy, breathtaking and absolutely tourist oriented sights are worth pursuing. I don't think I'll ever stop exploring... or travelling. The blog is a quirky take on what unfolds around me. Some entries are factually accurate and others are simply my impressions at the time. I do appreciate comments, corrections and feedback but please do not post a link to your web blog as a correct example of how I should interpret/understand a particular place along my travels.

Emergency! Please Read
Laura: Stay away from any kind-looking Thai men who introduce themselves to you and tell you about a gem factory. Did you not hear about how Gil got majorly scammed when he was there and caused some serious misery for his life and my parents for several weeks. I'm afraid when you read this that it might already be too late but I hope not. Also, stay away from people who introduce themselves to you out of nowhere, befriend you, and offer to take you to another cool looking temple "just down the road". Just politely decline. They might con you for just $20 but it still doesn't feel very good. They might even look like clean cut college students. Simple travel agent operations in street level units of busy places are fine though. Many families contract themselves out to tour operators. They WILL come and pick you up in a mini-van and take you for a whole day tour. Other than that, it sounds like you're staying in or near Banglampu if you said the Golden Palace is down the road. Stick with the street vendors that sell BBQ drumsticks and fresh fruit. The bugs ain't worth the protein. Albert - Albert Ngai
