staying cool in thailand
Friday, March 7th, 2008forget about “feeling the burn”! it’s been SO hot and humid the past couple of days here in bangkok. last night we had rain showers too, but it’s still really sticky outside.
even my kit kat requires air-conditioning (check out the label!)
here’s a few of our favorite ways to beat the heat:
1. internet cafes. on our street alone there are 5 internet cafes. for about 50 cents an hour (or less!), you get air-conditioned comfort while you check email, chat with friends and family, or use skype to call a loved one. most in the non-tourist areas are full of little kids who come here to play video games, so i always bring a headset to listen to music to drown out their shouts and the fighting noises and blaring music coming from their games!
2. get a massage. ahh yes, it’s a tough life here in thailand. you knew this would make my list huh? =)
