Shopping Shopping Shopping

After a nice sleep I got myself a great shower and weaponed with a fresh mango shake (for 50 cents :-) I got drowned into the endless shopping of Banglampuu (around Khao San Road). Traffic is crazy in Bangkok and you seriously have to watch out not to be killed by one of the frequent tuk tuk's (3 wheeled motorcycles) or taxi drivers!

It definitely has something of Porta Portese in Rome and reminded me right away again of this years shopping in Beijing. Fake clothes as far as you can see and everybody promises you the best price. I took my time and just looked around. And just lookign, I couldn't believe what I saw, afer I heard someone calling " Ja Boris...!" , No way. I met Adrian, a friend back from University, who just arrived today in Bankok to travel in Thailand for 4 months! The world is small indeed!! well, then, I am off to get ready for tonight. Hasta la vista!!

Ciao Boris,
Mi sembra di vederti "taking your time and just looking around" con la calma di sempre.
Mi pare che il viaggio sia iniziato alla grande e credo che continuerà così. Ti seguirò da un grigio computer di un grigio ministero :-(
baci
