shaved to within an inch of my,,,
Recently had some cool experiences in Bangkok...1. Thai massage - pretty awesome for only 130 baht (approx A$5, S$6, 13RM) at a whole hour! After being squeezed, kneaded, pushed, pulled, pressed and such... I walked out feeling a whole lot better. Thai massage seems to use the body's meridians in a yoga-type technique to push and pull one's limbs in different directions. Some things were painful of course but, no pain no gain!
2. Thai barber - not only did he cut my hair, he also cleaned my ears, trimmed my nose hair, washed and massaged my head and shaved parts of my face that I didn't even know had hair... amazing. Plus the shave he gave my cheeks + chin was the cleanest I've ever had ever ever. I think I look like I'm 15 right now... though the 'innocent' look is not really me (i prefer the mean look) but it's still cool to look a bit different. And I feel as smooth as a baby's bum when I run my hands over my cheeks. I'm just hoping I don't break out in a nasty beard rash because he shaved against the grain :S
Bidding adieu once again from the land of smiles... going out to Silom for thai coffee and souvenir shopping... note: Thais looooooove coffee and are very proud of their homegrown beans... as a result, Thailand has the best coffee I've ever tried in South East Asia.... places like Ban Rie coffee and Black Canyon (which they also have in Singapore) are awesome. Especially Ban Rie... the coffee is strong and one can choose between arabica and robusta blends, and the one in Ekamai is so nice... all wooden finish and open-plan.
Thats it from me though,
Ciao!
