If you notice on the publish date of my Honeymoon-Trip-series postings, you may realized how long I missed out to update and complete my Honeymoon trip journal hehe.. Mid of last year, I was suddenly busy getting my hands on the Thailand project which required me to travel on and off to Bangkok..

First time to Bangkok, I was so excited.. the traveling took me around 2-3 days.. after some time, I traveled more and more frequent to at most 2-weeks within a month..

It’s quite a good experience that open up my social networking life, to get to know some Thai friends, working with new colleagues, etc.. That’s the experience which I won’t regret hehe.. :D

Too bad, despite our team hard work at last the project still didn’t run quite smooth.. :(

However, I’m still going to post some of the photos which I took there to keep some of my memories in Bangkok, including my favourite Cha-Yuan drink haha.. :D I’m missing it alot :)

My Memoirs of Bangkok:

The following pics were taken on the earlier days when I just started traveling to Bangkok for business trip.. Still feel excited and happy coz I still could have some time to explore around the city and do some shopping which I love the most when I was in Bangkok.. hehe :)

Excited for traveling ^^

Look! We're going to arrive in Bangkok very soon :)

Finally landed at Suvarnabhumi Airport

These are some pics of the inside view of Suvarnabhumi Airport, taken when I just arrived in Bangkok as well as when I was going to depart back to Singapore..

On the earlier days, we were staying at the hotel.. While on the later days, after most of the team were traveling to Bangkok, we moved to the apartment nearby the office.

This is the hotel where I was staying for some time before moving to the apartment

These are the usual places we went after work for our dinner and some refreshments, aka massage  as well as a little bit shopping hehe :P

Central Ladprao, the nearest shopping mall where I got my Naraya bags ^^

Opposite Ladprao, the place where I like to go for shopping :P

Nearby food places, where our team like to eat the Jap food there :P

Oh.. the above pic is my new friend from Thailand.. she’s a sweet and kind lady, who always accompanies me when I was there.. She also showed me how to take the newly open Airport link at that time, from the nearest BTS station located at the client’s side event thought she didn’t go to the same direction as me.. so nice of her :)
