Day Trip to Ayutthaya, the Second Capital of Thailand
Nisha and I have been to Thailand many times before. Doing a day trip to Ayutthaya was on the cards for quite a while but for some reason Ayutthaya had always eluded us. Last time when we got the chance, we grabbed it with both hands. So here is our things to do in Ayutthaya, the historic city, located about 90KM North of Bangkok. Now we can say Thailand holidays are incomplete without a tour of Ayutthaya. So after reading this go ahead and integrate Ayutthaya itinerary into your Thailand itinerary.

Family Trip to Bangkok

Kindness on the streets of Bangkok

This month’s story has come from Dante Scarano who takes us to Thailand again where he was lost and was helped by a woman.

The Year that was 2015
The Year that was 2015
Another year has passed and it’s time to stop and look back; take stock of my journeys, not only in terms of travel but the journeys which opened a new horizon for me and helped me see the world with diverse perceptions.
I know it is so cliché to reflect back but it’s something I have been doing all these years…. to see how enriching my walk has been.
Did I achieve something in year 2015?
Yes and No.
Phallic Shrine in Bangkok
Phallic Shrine in Bangkok
It was afternoon and we were itching to see some non-touristy places in Bangkok after some minor shopping in Platinum Fashion Mall.
Vasu suggested that we go to this shrine which is famous for seeking the blessings for fertility. And so it is also called Fertility shrine. Although we were done with fertility for this lifetime, 🙂 I agreed and we started walking in the bright and hot sunshine!
Loi Krathong, a festival of lights
The moon has risen above the horizon. It appears exceptionally bright, beautiful and full. Maybe it is just an illusion. People in Thailand and Thai people around the world are draping themselves in traditional finery carefully chosen just for this day.
