My niece has moved to Bangkok for two months to make some money to help pay for the university. She is working at the Cabbage & Condoms restaurant on Sukhumvit Soi 12.
Her first tip!
Krung Thep
Visit to a Temple
In early March, I went with my friend to the Wat Bang Phra temple in Bangkok. I asked the monk for good health and good luck. He then crushed a gold leaf and put in on my forehead.
WiFi Trouble
Last month I tried to use the Intenso Memory 2 Move WiFi with my MacBook Air. But my MacBook Air became crazy. I think Intenso is useless.
Working Girl Apartment
For nearly eight months, I have been working in Bangkok. My apartment is on Sukhumvit Soi 71 near the Phra Khanong Skytrain Station. The rent is 2,200 baht a month ($70).
The front of the building is a barber shop.
My Bed.
No bathroom! It is downstairs.
Street Food
This is near where I work. I eat there every evening. I usually have the barbecue pork with sticky rice. It costs 15 baht (47 cents).
My Neighborhood
Sukhumvit Soi 71. It is a quiet street.
(A) is the name of the store. The Thai words are shrimp, crab and steam(ed).
Local Restaurant
Sometimes I eat lunch here.
I like to have the seafood soup, squid and steamed rice!
