I'll check Khaosan Road next month, before heading to Phuket

Just came back from Phuket couple of days ago, most bars open at night some with live music, crowded conditions, no masks, no temp check I saw, business as usual.

There are restaurants on Bangla? 
 

 

Must be selling peanuts while you drink. Am going to check one of this days. I know there was a Burger King, but haven’t been on Bangla for 2 years.

As I have said before, I was there last month and my friend in September, Party as usual for at least 2 months now (I have been told much longer). Nothing wrong after at least 2 months so everyone's a winner!
