Top 10 List

Below is a list that my friend, Julie e-mailed me after spending some time in Bangkok. Surprising that if I made a top 10 list for the Dominican Republic, it would be EXACTLY the same. Strange that two different countries in two different continents can be so alike.

TOP 10 THINGS I LEARNED IN BANGKOK:

1. It's possible for 4 people to sit on a motorcycle and 12 to fit in the back of a truck
2. You dump your gargabe on the streets after you're done eating
3. There are street vendors everywhere and you can get a meal for under a dollar
4. Many people can speak a little english, tho they preted they know less than they do.
5. You have to barter prices and can almost reduce the price to half
6. massages are done in a big room with everyone lying side by side (with Alison Krause playing in the background)
7. The currency is a baht, and you will spend it faster than you can believe on the markets that fill the streets.
8. Toilet paper is not something provided
9. You can get tuk tuk ride (Like a small golf cart with flashing rides) with as many people who can fit while drinking beer
10. There are women who braid and dread hair every 20 feet, therefore there is a huge population of tourists with such hairdoes.
