Cheapest way to Don Muang Airport

Three months of training as Guest Service Assistant in Bangkok's hotel, I've seen many travelers looking for the cheapest way to DMK airport. My hotel is located in the downtown and the meter taxi to DMK airport costs about 400 THB. Many of them complained expensive.

There's actually an alternative way which cost less than 100 THB per person.

Well, Enric and I tried to save money even though we have 2 big luggages of 32" height, or more. Imagine, dragging these huge luggages for about 15 minutes to the nearest Skytrain to get to Mo Chit (if you're taking MRT, stop at Chatuchak). This takes about 45 minutes to arrive. This cost me only 22 THB as I hold a Rabbit card (price vary depending on which station you took from). Go to the bus station and walk further ahead for the DMK shuttle bus. The bus came every half an hour. Look for the bus number "A1" and hops in. It cost roughly about 30 THB if I'm not mistaken. The journey to the airport tooks roughly 15 - 30 minutes depending on the traffic. The bus stops directly in front of the departure gate. No worries! BUT remember, this is very time consuming and you should depart from your hotel earlier.

There's also more alternative ways:

1. Take BTS Skytrain to Victory Monument, then take the bus "A2"

2. Take MRT to Chatuchak, then take the bus "A1" (as mentioned above)

For Suvarnabhumi Airport (international flight), you can only take MRT to Petchaburi and walk to Airport Link, from Makkasan to Suvarnabhumi Airport.

If you want less hassle, just pay the taxi.

Cheers!

Sherry's day out

Brought Sherry for a walk in Desa Park City. As usual, go near to the lake. Thanks to Enric for discovering her enjoyed lake water last year. So now we've been allowing Sherry to walk at the side but not swimming. It's not allowed.

Sherry: Unoccupied territory.

Sherry: Water! Water!!!!!!!! 5 minutes more, please!

Enric: Okay....

Me: No swimming ah!

She loves walking on the water, sniffing around, takes time enjoying sunbath. However, she saw a fish and tried to catch it. Not once, but twice and she slipped and rolled over.

OMG. So dirty..... Have to shower her again. Good job, Sherry. Good job. However, we enjoyed the funny moment of Sherry. Cute to the max. Should have prepared camera to record the scenario! (Can submit to Zap de Spion. Hahhaahhahahahhhha! Just kidding.)

Happy Mother's Day!

I know it's a bit too late to post this but I'm trying to update it!

Dear beloved mother....

I also made one for Enric's mother, Sylvie. Btw, too early to send her because in France, the celebrate during the end of May...(somewhere of the day, I am not really sure...)

On last Sunday, we travelled back to mom's hometown to celebrate Mother's Day along with my second mom, 妈姨. Sadly, didn't took any photo with her...

because we were too busy playing mahjong till dinner time..... And dad busy FIFA. Influenced by Enric. (Now, the even FIFA till late night because now they have two controller to play multiplayer. Happy lahhhhh.....)

Our good dinner in Dengkil. Famous chilli fish but we eat whatever more than that. Total, RM400++ for 9 pax. Better than other five stars restaurant. im serious. I even said if anyone going to plan wedding dinner, this is a good recommendation. Cheap and yummy.

Best day of the year! I believe more better day will come soon....!

It's been awhile

Hello, people!

It has been awhile ever since my last last post. Supposingly my previous post should posted up on the 6th or the 7th of April after my uncle passed away but my internet in Thailand has expired and got no internet.

However, I still have no time yet to post anything yes because I was in vacation after my training. Me and Enric went to Krabi for 4 days long in Phra Nang Inn.

My room interior, it has a bathub next to my bed! Anyway, not much photo of room but....

A pool.... Near to beach.....

A second pool! Near to my room but I still went to the first pool. This is more quiet and calm pool because less people came here. Surprisingly, it has garden right beside! But have to walk through mini staircase.

Street view...

Isn't it lovely? Near to the beach, crowded with shops and massage therapy.

View captured outside the balcony of my room. Sadly, we can't see any sunset. Not really matter because the view is stunning!

After 4 days in Krabi, we flew to Chiang Mai and there's where my brother joined in! After almost a month, we met again. We checked in Mandala House, a massive unique budget hotel. Freaking cheap but good hotel! The shower amenities will never run out, awesome room with balcony and with bathub! We stayed ground floor, next to the elevator : many guests talked loudly without considering the room nearby, but we didn't ask for another room as we don't really mind because we are too tired to switch room and hassle the staff. We thought there is no pool but apparently there is a pool! Nice and small. Not much people using it anyway, doesn't matter bout the size tho. It's located inside housing area with lots of budget hotel. Mandala House may be considered as budget but they do provide breakfast and free wifi. Totally out of expectation! 3 days in Chiang Mai is awesome! Bro and Enric enjoyed it! Especially.......

With the cabaret ladyboys! Hahaha! Btw, we bumped into Daniela and Yves (Enric's friend) in one of the temple and we hang out on that day.

Oh oh! We visited 3D art museum. Thanks to me for checking the brochure at the front desk. Everyone enjoyed much!

One of my favorite! It's edited with rain drops. Hahahaha!!!!

Last day in Chiang Mai before flying back to K.L, I realized something.....

I'm pregnant!!!!! Just kidding. Food poisoning + inflammation ureter and small intestine.... These continuos for freaking 1week plus. Injection, plenty of medicines and 2 doctors. This photo took on the second time I consulted with my doctor, Dr. Wong and declared inflammation with dehydration. Swollen till this bad. Worst thing ever! Not sure in it was the second day's dinner or the 3 milk teas I had on the second day. Because I'm the only one suffered..... However, I think I'm fully recovered because I did not finished my medicine although I know it's a must. Way too disgusting....

In the loving memory of uncle Joseph Yee Chat Khow

On the 4th of April 2014, dearest uncle has lost his battle against cancer. A strong man that I know, a loving father of my beloved cousins, a caring and thoughtful husband to my aunt.

Today, you have completely left us. You have gone too soon but I believed your heart and soul are still with us. You're now in the arm of Jesus, no longer suffering in pain. You are now free from the pain.

I am sorry that I couldn't send you off today, I am only able to watch you thru Skype. I couldn't hold my tears but I am trying to hold now as I'm typing this in the plane.

Dearest "kaiyeh", I am not longer hearing your voice nor seeing you anymore. Please be the guardian angel above, bless your children and wife. We will help you to take over your duty. May your soul rest in peace. Do not worry from above. I believe your children has grown mature, able to make good decision in life.

Although you look fierce, but we know you're a humble and humorous person. A person who doesn't say no to people's request, who always only say no for not to hassle anyone, a person who always forgive people. 

You will be forever remembered in our heart. Be happy in Jesus arms. We love you. <3

Dearest uncle with dearest grandmother....
