Whew! Our first week in Bangkok is over and we're finally starting to settle in. The jet-lag is slowly (and I mean VERY slowly) wearing off and we've moved into our apartment. So far Bangkok is proving itself as the big, crazy city people have told us about; there are people EVERYWHERE at all times of the day and night, traffic is insane, and the malls, restaurants, transit systems, etc. are generally jam-packed with people. However, the Thai people are very friendly and the city and transit system is suprisingly clean. In fact, unlike other big cities we've been to, the streets here are completely litter-free; people just seem to have more respect for their surroundings.
We're going to use this blog to keep our friends and family up-to-date on what we're up to, where we've been, and what we think of this whole experience. Although we're in regular contact with you all back home, we hope this blog will allow us to share stories and pictures on a more regular basis and enable you to take part in this experience with us...until you all come for a visit and can experience it for yourselves, that is ;)
Cheers,
Sean and Meg
