It's like Tijuana meets Cabo, on crack. I am staying in Banglamphu which is the back packer area. Which means kind of grubby, I walked out of my first hotel due to the shower being, pretty much, in the toilet and it feels like being in the middle of Mardi Grads, Bangkok style. The only thing missing is the continuous boobage Bourbon Street brought, but it's quite possible I have gone to bed prior to the nightly showing. Thanks to the multi-faceted aspect of this part of Thailand, I am no longer afraid to wear a bandanna (don't judge, the heat really is unbearable), eat pork gyoza from a street vendor and make friends with someone with a large scab on her nose (unfortunate tuk tuk accident). I leave early tomorrow morning for Ko Tao, a small island off the eastern coast of Thailand, just north of Ko Samui.
