Take me back to Khao San Road
The Festival was fantastic with Franz Ferdinand IMO gave out the best performance. Ian Brown was great and a Wonderwall sing-along with Oasis was just precious. Love it.
It's been a week since I came back from Khao San road.
It was a really nice place to stay. Sort of like a backpackers heaven but from most of the people I've met rather then a stopover the road has it's attractions that just grounds them longer than planned.
I can imagine why, it's like the place is dedicated for people to meet other people. On the way to the Bangkok 100 Rock Festival I met some people and spent most of my time with them.
To be honest my 4 days 3 nights there was really all spent in Khao San road. I did some walking but eventually I find myself back in Khao San looking at people watching the day go by.
In Khao San I talked to Welsh person for the very first time and found out that their English language is understandable, met a few Swedish and loads of English people.
As I've never been out of Malaysia my whole adult life meeting people who are of different race, culture and religion makes me truly appreciate diversity.
In Khao San Road everybody gets along and it's common for someone to just say hello out of the blue.
When I was packing getting ready to go back to old Kayel, I long for the oppurtunity to come back again and maybe this time rather then spend al my time partying with strangers maybe move around a bit.
On this sleepy Monday I wish back in Khao San having just a little bit more fun ;)
