Some people call it vandalism others call it art. Street art or Graffiti is global and the Thai’s up in Chiang Mai have their own style. Some guys Tag called SOS can be found pretty much all over the city but what I found most amazing is that most of the graffiti around town is
Chiang Mai will soon have the opening of Art In Paradise a huge interactive Art Museum. Pattaya already has an art in Paradise and Chiang Mai is the a logical next place for them but no doubt we’ll end up seeing a Bangkok and Phuket version of Art in Paradise because this place is super
I’ve been in Pattaya the past 2 months checking out all there is to do here. Last year I did all the sex places so I thought I’d check out everything there is to do in Pattaya that have absolutely nothing to do with sex. We can’t spend all our time drinking and going to
I strolled down to the beach today where the Pattaya Music Festival is being held right now, the concert is better off looking at on TV honestly it’s so hot and crowded round the main stage hard to get drinks and nowhere to sit but if you like being surrounded by a bunch of Thai
After entering my 5th year of living in Thailand the whole Songkran festival is just way too much, first couple years was fine but now it’s just old and I want out. I don’t want to get wet, period. How do you get away from the Songkran Festival? When is the Songkran Festival Thailand on
