Bangkok was bloody awesome.

On my first day I made friends with an elephant.

Yes. A fucking Elephant. Right in the middle of Khao San Road, the place we were staying at and the capital of Thailand.

Khao San Road is way awesome and a must go for anybody going to Bangkok. Going to Bangkok without going to Khao San Road is like being a fucking dickhead. Khao San Road is bustling with life nd filled to the brim with people from all the three corners of the world.

This photo doesn’t really do the Road justice. It was taken at a quiet part of Khao San Road and at four AM. But it’s the only picture of Khao San Road I have. Who the hell spends a vacation taking photos?

Khao San Road is the shit. They sell everything, from switchblades to fake IDs and fake everythings. If you buy something for $99.99 back home, you can find it here for $9.99. The beers are cheap, the pubs are awesome and the street food is fit for Gods.

Everywhere, you see tourists sporting the distinctive Mark Of A Foreigner:  Dreadlocks or braided hair.

Seriously. For every ten tourists you see, five have either dreads or braids. Even I got my self some.
