Travel Itinerary and All the Buses and Trains we Took for Six Weeks in South-East Asia – Part I : Thailand

Welcome to part I of a series of articles about the six weeks we spent in South East Asia last summer. It took us pretty much forever to choose a place in the world where we´d want to spend six weeks of our sabbatical. Things we took into consideration when making this decision were: safety, weather, cost, variety of things we could do (since we were going to spend such a long time on the road), and cultural attractiveness.

In the end we were left with Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. My idea for this series is to walk you through our itinerary, with focus on how we got from point A to point B, as the planning of transportation bit took us forever and I want to spare you all that research, leaving all the information in one place. There will be other posts expanding on some of these destinations, the food we ate there, and more. But in this one I will just focus on the itinerary of our 15 days in Thailand.

Well if you’re a first time tourist to Bangkok, let me try to help you a little bit by sharing with you my favourite places for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
