Wat Saket Bangkok. Cover photo courtesy of Preecha.MJ April 2015. Another day in Bangkok, another expedition to see one of Thailand’s most notable Buddhist temples. Despite visiting around a dozen during my time in the Thai capital, I couldn’t say any of them had come with killer city views. Which is why I was so keen […]
Read MoreThe Ghost Tower, Bangkok. April 2015. I was having lunch in the hostel one morning when I overheard a curious conversation between an American expat and an Australian backpacker. “Dude, you haven’t climbed The Ghost Tower?!?!” he spluttered, his coffee cup suspended in mid air.

But looking back, not […]
Read MoreBangkok Snake Farm. April 2015. It was a scorching afternoon in Bangkok as I made my way through the grimy streets towards Queen Saovabha Memorial Institute.
