For the sake of our health, we must leave Bangkok!!

It is true what they say that Bangkok overloads your senses and will swallow you whole if you are not careful. All possible services that can be done to a human body (tailors, spa, massages, dental work and beyond) are offered everywhere you look and partaking in any of these treatments hardly puts a serious dent in your wallet. Many shops are 24 hours and will only shut their doors if business is slow, meaning you can really get what you want anytime you want it!

After 3 days of being persistently bothered, Jarret and I reluctantly gave in to a Thai massage. Although Jarret is accustomed to having every bone in his body cracked, I am not!! But, I can surprisingly say that after it was over, all the fear was gone and my body felt so relaxed. In fact, I thought if my body felt so healthy so should my feet, nails, face, and eyes. Accordingly, I had a facial, manicure, eyelash tinting, and foot massage all after 10:30 pm! I think its time to vacate this city of over-indulgence asap before we get used to late night spa treatments, 50 cent dinners ranging from tourist style pad thai to local soups and touts that constantly think you need a suit or tuk tuk ride somewhere!!
