Bangkok called my name again in September, and this episode recaps my experiences spending five days in the Thai capital, for a mix of work and fun purposes (of course, even the work parts were fun!).

Along with explaining what activities I got up to in Bangkok, I decided to rate each day in terms of how much of a "thoughtful traveller" I was, so listen in to see my daily score out of ten, and my final result.

My trip included some networking and education with Tourism Cares, many wonderful Thai meals, great chats with friends, a sightseeing outing to Ayutthaya, and best of all, I finally had the chance to spend time in person with my dear friend Vincie Ho, founder of Rise Travel Institute. We've worked together online for years but never before seen each other in real life!
