We’ve all been there: lying awake in bed at night, staring at the ceiling, unable to drop off to sleep no matter what we try.

A Weekend in Bangkok

A Weekend in Bangkok

After an incredible weekend in Singapore and some wonderfully chilled-out days in Langkawi, I carried on northwards in my Southeast Asia adventure and headed for Bangkok in Thailand. A true city of contrasts, where haggard generations-old tuk tuks pull up in front of immense gleaming temples and opulent rooftop bars serving incredible cocktails compete with humble street stalls dishing out bowls of steaming hot noodles, Bangkok is a complete assault on the senses – in the best way possible.
