Khao San Road

Khao San road is a backpacker haven where there is strong sub-culture of young hippie/hipster people, especially Westerners in the area. It is also the easiest place to find fried insects, best to get them from vendors pushing their carts along the streets. Be warned, it is a very touristy area. You could go to a good party there, but if you’re up for an authentic Thai experience, it’s not really the place for you.

When Joel’s not partaking in one of his shameless eating sessions, he likes to think of himself as a sponge – absorbing the mysteries and beauty of our world – be it through a good book or a wacky jaunt in a foreign country.
