YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT!




the food here is abit off and on.

i went to a place on kha soan road and had american fried rice with prawns and crab meat. it cost 60B and it was delicious.
then i went to a place near nana square and i had the same dish and it only cost 40B ( about 1.5 cents) and it the only way to describe it is ...... it tasted like bangkok smells.

for those of you who havebn't had the pleasure of knowing what bangkok smells like- imagine a mixture of smog, humidity, smog, sewerage, sweat, smog, dirt, fish, smog, chicken, garbage and a bit more smog.

Yummmo!!!!

so i have to say i have done what i thought i wouldn't do and that is revert to eating western foods.
its not so bad i guess but i have been abit sick already and had to use those tablets to stop you getting the runs so i figure- it's better safe than sorry! ( too much infomation i know!)

i am off to phuket this arvo. i was going to go to china but i want to get in contact with my mate in hong kong first. i'd also like to get in contact with aunty janny so i can maybe organise a flight back from china to bangkok via vietnam.

i will hang in phuket for a week or too while i sort all that out. i decided on phuket because a aussie here told me it was better than ko samui so i guess we'll see.

also- the lovely people at the nana hotel have agreed to mind my suitcase with my london gear at no further charge! i have to stay there for one night when i get back which is fine because its close to the airport out of here. before you all freak out -YES. MY BAG IS LOCKED UOP TIGHT!!!!

:-)

thanks for all your emails guys. its great to hear from you all!
