A little more about Bangkok





The shopping has ceased to end, since it is pretty much unavoidable in this city. But don't worry, I'm not blowing all of my funds! There are plenty of bargains to be found. There is also a plethora of international food (definitely a bonus). I haven't done anything majorly exciting since I last posted. My friends and I have just been exploring the city, revisiting Kao San Road, celebrating birthdays, and going to class (I know, hard to believe!). Oh, and I went to the Dusit Zoo! The highlight of that trip was playing with baby goats. So adorable.

I've been attending Bikram Yoga during the last couple of days with Sarah, Emma, and Laura. It's held at the classiest, most state-of-the art gym I have ever seen. It's on the 9th-11th floors of a tower and looks over the city of Bangkok. I'm pretty sure all of the rich people of Bangkok are members. Anyway, the yoga class is awesome! I plan on attending as much as I can.

This weekend, I'll be partaking in more productive outings (since class won't get in the way). I really love being in a big city. The only downside: lots and lots of traffic. It's not very fun riding in a taxi for more than 30 minutes.
