If I were visiting again… I'd spend my days wandering Bang Rak, Bangkok, Thailand, from tucked-away street art and old wooden homes to glittering riverfront evenings and skyline views. I've chosen these places for the little details that stayed with me - cozy stays, memorable walks, and the kind of Bangkok moments that make you want to return.

My daughter & I are huge twenty one pilot fans. She’s been obsessed with them for 10 years and has begged to see a hometown show. In 2023 my daughter convinced my husband to take her to see them play a charity softball game. He ended up having a work trip that he couldn’t miss. She was devastated. So I convinced my son to come and we drove 19 hours to Columbus. That trip I fell in love with Columbus, something I never thought I’d say. It’s the first city I could ever see myself living in. We loved it so much in 2024 we went back to see 3 hometown shows. There probably won’t be anything earth shattering to most bust here are my favorite stops we made.

If I were visiting again… I'd use Phrom Phong, Bangkok, Thailand as a base for peaceful parks, beautiful cultural escapes, lively evenings, and a comfortable place to sleep. I especially love this mix because it balances Bangkok's grand sights with smaller moments of calm, and includes stays suited to everything from a polished city break to a simple solo trip.
