I always feel like so pleased after I have eaten in BKK because it cost less than a McDonald’s meal in the UK. How does that even happen?

“Thailand is sooo cheap!”, my friend Michael once replied to this “living in Australia in a tin shed eating packet noodles is cheap too”

No A/C but at least it was clean and had a shower – I would definitely go back. Street stall food was delicious and the cheapest. My meals were usually between 30-60baht. Of course, since then there’s been inflation and a change in currency value.
