Bangkok musings


I like Bangkok (like millions of other tourists). I like it not because of its tourist attractions, I like its feel. I would like to live in Bangkok.The numbers and geography tell you that its a huge city, but it has a human scale and a middle-class feel. Weighed down by its infrastructure problems, it has a melancholy. It feels like an Indian city, but better-off: a cleaner, better-fed and sexier India.
