In 20 hours, I will be landing at Bangkok international. It is at that point that i have finally arrived at the beginning of my journey. The quest to find myself a taxi is my first right of initiation on what is to be the beginning of my sojourn. I will not just be taking the taxi to a place to sleep, but to a new destination. Its the uncertainty that terrifies. It is the uncertainty that provides the excitement.
On a lighter note, I'm sure some people are wondering what it looks like to stay in an 8.00/night USD hostel (Chinny and Bosco, here you go!).
This is what my hostel looks like from the outside. I assure you, its not so bad inside. Its quite clean with my room containing 6 beds. There are no cockroaches (no food in there i guess?) and other insects. Would i recommended it? Well, it really depends on your tolerance level. Its very conveniently located in HK, but not in such a great area. The next cheapest thing you can find will run you roughly 100 CDN a night a bit farther away, or 60ish CDN a night if you want to stay at the airport (roughly 45 min from downtown HK).From here on out the accommodations should only get cheaper. In Bangkok i will be staying for about 8 USD/night which is a little high (hey, why can't i spoil myself?). But after that i'm going to keep it roughly around 5 USD. I'm on a budget you know!
