I finally figured it out

I love Bangkok, I really do. But I have had this nagging feeling inside and I have not been able to pin-point what it is.The other day it came to me.You very rarely just wander about.If you want to go out to eat, you need to decide at home where you are going to eat, you cannot do that on the streeet. Because usually the restaurants are not located anywhere near each other. The one you decide to go to may very well be located at the end of a very narrow soi, and next to it – nothing.If you want to go for a coffee you say to yourself “I’m in the mood for some coffee, some soft music a magazine or a book in a nice environment”. Then you get out, get in a cab usually, ask the driver to take you to a Starbucks or Au Bon Pain you get out, get into the coffee shop and you just hope that the feeling has not gone away OR that when you get there you just realize that you really just wanted to get out of the house.But now you are at a coffee shop, and there is nothing next to it. So why not sit down for a while.This problem will not occur, if you decide to go to one of the super big malls that are in Bangkok, like little towns they are offering pretty much everything that you would need during 24 hours of a day. Or a week or a month.So you can’t wander around Bangkok, but you can wander the narrow little isles of a supermall.
