Ok so it's hot here. It hit us like a wall when we walked outside the airport. But we are embracing it and working with constantly being sweaty. We only slept 4 hours and both weirdly woke up at the same time, 2 hours before our alarm. We woke up, got ready, and walked outside… Continue reading Exploring in Bangkok
