After spending a couple of days in Kolkata's trendy 'Park St' I decided to hit Thailand! First stop was Bangkok and the backpackers shine, Koh San Road. Going from India to Thailand was a massive culture shock, i wasnt used to clean streets, 24hr electricity and so many westerners.

Koh San Road is the place to see and be seen. The road is rammed with big name shops like Boots and Starbucks as well as a mix of stalls selling clothes, cheap jewellery and of course not forgetting the endless bars. I spent a day looking at temples before chilling out in the evening in one of the many bars showing pirate DVD's.

The next night I meet up with mates from India and we hit the Legendary Patpong area of Bangkok which is home to an awesome market and 'The Ping Pong' Show. The 'show' was everything you'd expect and we left some 300 baht poorer and a little mentally scared.
