1,000 Baht: A World of Possibilities

For just 1,000 Baht, you can:

  • Indulge in a luxurious MAC lipstick.
  • Treat yourself to a stylish designer shirt.
  • Catch a movie at the opulent Embassy cinema with a little extra.
  • Savor a delightful buffet at a 5-star hotel.
  • Adorn yourself with a delicate 1-gram gold pendant.
  • Unwind with a blissful hour-long aromatherapy massage.

Or, perhaps you yearn for a mini-getaway to add a splash of color to your life?

For Pan, the latter option would be the best choice. However, the most stressful part is that the free buses and trains have been canceled. It would be nice to travel on a budget. Haha. This time, Pan has compiled her experiences from previous trips to share. Let's start with the first trip.
