Flight to Phuket from Bangkok

It was time to leave. Though Myanmar was probably the least comfortable country I travelled in, it is not without its charms. What the country lacks in infrastructure, it makes up for it in culture and heart, with some of the friendliest people I’ve ever known. But alas, my lack of kyats have forced me to end the trip earlier than expected and I didn’t get to see a lot of their sights, which was a shame. I won’t hestitate to go back to Myanmar, most especially now that I know what to expect in this wonderful country and the next time, I will be prepared.

Stunning Seascapes in Thailand

The Motherland Inn II has a free shuttle service from the guest house to the airport and vice versa, of course only if you are a guest. At least I won’t have to worry about finding money to the taxi driver and just to find out I got fleeced. The trip back to Thailand was uneventful and I suddenly got a culture shock after being away from modernity for more than a week. Upon arrival at the Bangkok Suvarnambhumi International Airport, I immediately topped up on my cash which were running really low. I also changed my what was left of my US dollars to baht. I decided not to stay in Bangkok for now so I got another Air Asia flight to Phuket to indulge myself. Fortunately, they have flights almost every hour so I got one immediately.

Likewise, the Bangkok to Phuket flight was smooth and it passed over some impressive marine scenery. I guess it was just a sample of what is to come after all they are quite known for their stunning seascapes. I certainly look forward to it.
