I spent a fair amount of time in Bangkok, and considered it my “home away from home” in Southeast Asia. I found it endlessly fascinating–you never know what’s going to turn up around the corner. Elephants, tattoo artists working with a bamboo needle-holder and tiny cups of dye, street vendors selling fried grasshoppers and insects, or a thoroughly modern skyscraper with an embedded 7-11 store.
