Here’s What Happened...

On various videos on YouTube I received comments that were along the lines of:

“Can you make some videos showing the attractions and traveling in Bangkok?”

And they got me thinking:

I’ve been based in Bangkok since 2009.

When I came for the first time, I visited all sorts of attractions and went all over the place... BUT that was before I started making videos.

When I started making videos, I had already done quite a bit in Bang-kok, and I mostly just wanted to go to restaurants and make pure food videos (which is what I’ve been doing most of the time).

Along with the help of my wife Ying, we decided that we needed to take a full 2 Weeks in Bangkok, stay at hotels and experience Bangkok to the max by eating, going to attractions, and doing as much as we could in 2 weeks.

So that’s how it happened - and we went for it!

I am thrilled to bring to you this 2 Weeks in Bangkok travel guide and food video series. I hope the videos (and this eBook to go with it) will be helpful and useful for you when you’re in Bangkok.

Quick Overview:

This “2 Weeks in Bangkok” eBook goes directly with the entire Bangkok video series - You can watch the videos on YouTube here.

I’ve organized this eBook by each day, and here’s what is included:

1. Hotel - At the top of each day you’ll find the hotel and area that we stayed in.

2. Restaurants - All the major restaurants we ate at during the day and the dishes we ate.

3. Day Schedule - This is a list of all the day activities, including attrac-tions, transportation, prices, and restaurants. If you see a * next to a restaurant in the Day Schedule, you can go back up to the Restaurants section and get all the information.

4. Pictures - I also included a few photos from the day as well.

All links in RED are clickable thoughout this guide - so you can click them for more information.

NOTE: Also, the links to the hotels within this guide are affiliate links, meaning that if you book a hotel from the places I’ve recommended, at NO extra charge to you, I’ll get a small comission.
