Bangkok: buddhist monks pray with a couple
On a little market in Silom, a district in Bangkok, I saw three buddhist monks who pray with a thailand couple. At the end of this little ceremony, the oldest monk ticed a stitch on the wrist of the woman. The thread on the wrist may help to connect the woman with the buddhist faith.

Bangkok: people
My journey through Southeastasia starts in Bangkok, as so many journeys to Southeastasia start in this “megacity”. Bangkok surprised me with open-minded, tolerant and very friendly people. I loved to discover this town by boat on the Chao Phraya or with the tuktuk. Staying 5 days in Bangkok I visited the King Palace, Wat Arun, Wat Pho, Wat Trainit and some other Wats. I found a lot of markets. I experienced a lot of streetfood and I discover Chinatown.
