Hello from Bangkok!
It is indeed getting more and more hot over here, now when I was finally getting used to the temperature...
I have finally decided what to do next week - on Saturday evening we are leaving for Chiangmai, the 2nd biggest city in Thailand together with a group of friends. It is up in very north, so I hope for a bit cooler climate 😉
On Wednesday we went to the embassy of Indonesia to apply for our visa. We decided to do it late on Tuesday evening, so were in a big hurry to get the plane tickets (you need them to apply for visa). Me and Anete were going trough booking sites until 2 o'clock in the night and decided to wake up early in the morning to have a fresh look at it. So Wednesday morning at 7 we met and decided to book a flight to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on 31st of March, spend 4 nights over there and fly to Bali, Indonesia on 4th of April. Great!!!!!! 😊
Some interesting facts I wanted to mention already before:
-Youtube.com is not working here, so we have to use a Chinese
version of it youke.com.
-They don't really have supermarkets like we know them... Feels like no-one is cooking at home, you can't get meat and vegetables in a shop! Its just sweets and crisps in very small packages, drinks and ice cream!
-It is 5 hours more than in Latvia and 6 hours more than in The Netherlands over here.
-They drive on the left side of the road.
-It is now year 2553 (not 2010).
Most probably I won't be online for a week from Saturday on, so talk to you later, guys!
Kisses,
Ilze
