ABSENCE. Not been much action in here tonight, im busy packing and hanging with hubby.  I'm flying down to our other home tomorrow.  'home away from home'  (pictures above) and darl is joing me in 10 days so it's cuddle time now!

I OFTEN get questions regarding Thailand and even Asia in general.  Those of you who've been following me for the past few years known that there is one thing that im more passionate about than fashion and that is travelling.  I tend not to write too many tips when it comes to Thailand and yes that is a bit due to selfish reasons, i have places that i'd like to keep to myself, it's exposed enough as it is.

Someone asked me the other day to name my favourite places in Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam.  And sure thing i can do that.  A little mini guide so to say. Lets start with Thailand.

Going to Thailand and want to stear away from the tourists or say atleast the Swedes?  I would say go to Koh Samed, this is is where the thais go on long weekend breaks, and the expats spend their song kran holidays.  Only 3 hours away from Bangkok.  Its cheap, relaxed, and quite thai.  The reason i mention Koh Samed is ofcourse since i presume you want sun, sand and sea, and my number one tip for Thailand (besides the ones i keep for myself) is of course Bangkok. And tada! Koh Samed is close!

Bangkok is a city you either hate or love, though i can't see how you could possibly feel anything other than adoration.  New York has nothing on Krung Thep when it comes to the city that never sleeps.  You need to give yourself time when in the city, and like the rest of Thailand the key word is PATIENCE! Please skip eating at your hotel restaurant and instead plump your butt down at a street stall, this is where you will sample some of the best cuisine in your life time.  This is real thai food. For the best food street, head down to Sukhumvit soi 38 after 3-4 o'clock in the afternoon until 5 am and it will be bustering with food stalls, from noodles to shaved ice cream.

p.s.  Do you guys like these little guides? Do you wanna see more of this?  Next time Malaysia.

Bedtime. Bags are packed. Lunchtime tomorrow i'll be enjoying the streets of Warsawa.  Afternoon tomorrow i'll be splattering in the pool on the 43rd floor over looking the city.  Dinnertime tomorrow i'll hopefully be eating something Polish?.  And nighttime tomorrow i'll be breaking my moves at an old school eastern european disco.  And by 2am i'll probably have crashed in the big fluffy hotel bed with 500 count egyptian sheets.  Well im hopeful anyway!  Weekend breaks are the shit!  Latero.

OK so you guys were so good when it came to tips from London, that i thought i'd try this again.  Next stop? Milan.  Tomorrow.  So tell me about your favourite restaurant, the best place to party it up, where to drink the foamiest cappuchino, and the best shopping whether it be markets or outlets!  Come on and share, after all sharing is caring!

OK so im off.  This may not be the most active blog this weekend but ill try to pop in once in awhile.  Tonights plans so far are dinner in Notting Hill with the old gang.  Oh yea and remember the reason for my 5am wakeup call the other day?  I cant believe it made the news, but then again i dont think you could call Aftonbladet a newspaper.  If i get the YSL manifesto, you'll definantly be hearing from me!  Ciao!
