Vermont: And a Place Very Far Away


It's such an amazing city.  And I see it differently every time I go.  It can be the juxtaposition of old and new. A sky scraper with a motif of elephants and temples.  The Siam Paragon mega mall and an old wat around the corner, nestled amongst greenery and offering a respite from the hustle and bustle.  The monks serenely walking past while the scooters screech by and the pink taxis honk their horns.

It's crowded.  It's hot.  But it's never, ever dull. And it's always a different city I see from the last time.

I'll share some of my impressions the next few days.
