If anyone thinks the traffic is bad in Bangkok now, they should have visited 20 years ago. The BTS was much shorter, there was no subway, and taxis were needed to get to most places. The Economist rated Bangkok traffic as the worst in the world around that same time. I recall having to get from Sukhumvit to Don Muang for a flight in 2003 and we were stuck in really bad traffic. I thought I wouldn't make the flight, so I called the travel agent to ask her what could be done with my ticket if I missed the flight. Her response was for me to " tell the driver to drive faster." 🤣
Hope to retire in 2025 and live in Bangkok. People have asked me how are you going to deal with that traffic in Bangkok? Told them I will not be owning a car and I want have a job there. I will be walking out of my door when I want to and I love riding the public transit systems in Bangkok.
Her roast is on fire hahaha, especially the backpacker one LMAO!!!

Yes, the baht bus is always fun.
Whit consultation - Retirement: Are you doing everything, that needs to be done. Or are you only providing advice (For the price: 129$) ?
Thumbs up 👍
Thanks for the visit ❤️🥰
Wow, you do so many things in the taxi. 😂
I wonder why no one mentions the open sewers... Is this taboo?
Not at all. Open sewers are very much neighborhood dependent though. It’s not like they are everywhere in the city
But for Khao San they are still a must or not?? I mean those idiot, eehh sorry, those elephant pants:-))
i like thai elephants, they smart, they dont wear that pants. no kru?
Haha will be very big pants for elephants.
