This was my third time in Bangkok. May 2005.This time for the MICS workshop, with TC, AA, MM and others. I have been thee many times since, but this city never stops to fascinate me. All the touristic stuff is fine - it is so different than anything else in southern Europe or the Middle East, that you will take an inetrest. But for me, it is also the daily routines of ordinary people, and how things so ordinary for the Thai can be so fascinating for other cultures.
The night market, a cold beer while relaxing in one of the 5-star hotels on the river, the golden Buddha and all that.
One of the millions of little Buddha statues in Bangkok. This picture was intended for that, but also captured the traffic.
And one of the many other statues in the city.
Shopping malls, packed with people.
Back to teaching - well, in UNICEF terminology, facilitation. This is from the first MICS3 workshop in Bangkok, with a huge number of participants, in Holiday Inn. That is where I had spent a three-day holiday a few years back, with D.
