I think I'm done with temples for a while...

Anita is in Bangkok for last 8 days (she won the first prize in the World City Survival Championship!), staying on another Freak Street again (and its not Khao San Rd). I didn't do much to be honest. But, hey Pili, there is a good thing about our separate trip- at least we can do some sightseeing (booring!) so I have seen one temple in Bangkok Noi, and another temple in Chinatown and few more in Ayuthaya.


While I was wandering around the temple site beside reflexion about the condition of human being in the universe I also :
- found very fashion forward guard of the Wat Arun.
- I was searching for Buddas images in Ayuthaya, ooo here you are hiding in the tree...

- I noticed a novice Superman rescuing people from dehydration

Bangkok Noi

Pilanita got fed up with farang area of Bangkok and decided to see real life. Both went for a trip by free city bus and found beautiful part of Bangkok Noi and Thonburi with dozens of canals and raft houses. Pilanita contributed to the local community by helping them to feed the fish and thankful Thai treated her with homemade coconut ice cream.

Birthday treat

Pilanita has celebrate Anita's B-day with great company of Fritz, Ed and two infamous Irish Luonatics-Barra and Joe. After a couple of drinks to give myself some courage the time for B-day treat had come- crickets with a bit salt and chilly.

Pilanita's new travelbuddies!

Pilanita and the White Dragon





Pilanita was hitch-hicking, sweating under the heat in khanom and White Dragon saw her, felt sorry for her and stopped.

As both of them are heading to Malysia, he decided to support her on her budget trip and take Pilanita with him all the way to the south so she doesnt have to pay for plain tickets to Kuala Lumpur.


Pilanita and the frog : Wendy, the second! (Dont ask what happen with Wendy the first, Pilanita is still crying when she remembers her;( )

Wendy the second wanted to travel all over Asia and jumped into Pilanita's bag . She didnt know she was in danger!! Pilanita saw her while packing and rescued her from dying of asphyxia . Wendy, the second, was so grateful that she decide to become Pilanita's guide while she is travelling in Thailand and joined her in her adventure.

Nhakon Si Thammarat

After one month of "brainless" activity on the island and even if she is brainless now, she has decided to look for some cultural activities and gastronomic experiencies at Nhakon Si Thamarat. Exploring the city she found lots of hindu, buddhist and muslim temples and she tried muslim food (khao Mok - chicken briyani - and mataba - pankake stuffed with chicken and veg).

Khanom

Pilanita' s body has arrived to Khanom and she found herself in a desserted land with NO farangs (thai way to call westerners).

As Pilanita is missing her second half, she had to made up something not to get bored while travelling alone. Here there are some useful tips ;)

After one month of sunbathing, reading and doing snorkling, Pilanita discovered other activities she can do at the seaside:

1 - Get involved in fishing activities and have spicy fish for dinner!

2 - Buy a book called "How to learn Thai in two days" and join the English - Thai language conversation exchange, so she has someone to speak to.

3- Go to the food market with the owner of the bungalows where she stays.

4- Go to the Fool Moon Party with retired thai people, who saw Pilanita alone and invited her to go.

5- Singing Karaoke all night long.

6- Go paragliding.

7. Join the teenager barbacue party on the beach ( O " moraga"... como lo llamamos en Melilla.")

8- Go for a swim and play with the sharks.

9- And...her favourite activity... Waving back at people in the street when she heard: Hello you!!

Pilanita's Split up

Pilanita couldn't make a decision where to go next so she split up in two halves- one goes to south of Thailand, Maleysia and Sri Lanka later on and second half to India. Pilanita's head is going to India, as she would not like to cover her face with burka. The other part to SE Asia to enjoy sunbathing (imposible in India, where shorts and bare arms are not acceptable).Keep your fingers crossed for her adventurous trips:)
