Bangkok and All The Goodness

Last month I had a quick trip to Thailand (Bangkok and Phuket). It was really spontaneous. My bf and his friends were already started their Indo China road trip a week before I left Jakarta. I had no plan to go because I had an event for Curious on March 8-9th. I really wanted to go, but I thought the flight would be expensive until I randomly checked the rates and they are surprisingly affordable for D-7 departure. I booked my flight to Bangkok with Tiger Air and the return flight from Phuket to Jakarta by Air Asia. So there I went flying solo early in the Monday morning.

DAY 1
The flight was at 8.45, but the plane took off at around 9.30, delayed by the crowded runway queue in CGK. I arrived in Suvarnabhumi airport at around 1 pm. Soon as I got out of the airport, I bought a local sim card so I can make a call. If you plan to go to Thailand in the near future, I recommend you to buy dtac happy tourist sim. It was only 299 baht, free internet for 7 days. Quite nice bargain, right? The signal is pretty good, no complain. I got mine at dtac's customer center at the arrival gate 5.
I took BTS Skytrain from Suvarnabhumi airport to Surasak and walked to a hostel called Saphai Pae. I booked one night via hostelworld.com (as usual). I was surprised because the private room was soooo big. I was already prepared my self to get a small room like I had in Osaka hahaha. I had a good sleep in the hostel, since I only had 2-4 hours of sleeping a few days before the trip. The hostel is nice, near to 7eleven and BTS station, big rooms, clean shared bathroom and who will refuse a free breakfast? ^.^

Bf picked me up at a transit station to Surasak and gave me a glass of bubble milk tea. What a sweet surprise ^.^ READ MORE »
