A little over a week in Thailand split between Bangkok and Phuket

| Sharing a few photos from a Thailand trip I did a couple of years ago. It was a little over a week long and we split the trip between Bangkok and Phuket before heading back to Bangkok again for the last few days. We started in Bangkok and honestly I loved the energy of the city right away. It was chaotic at times but in a fun way. Most of our days were just spent exploring around, trying different Thai food spots, visiting malls, walking through markets, and randomly stopping at cafes whenever we got tired from the heat. One thing I remember the most was how good the food was almost everywhere. Even random small places ended up being really memorable. Ate a lot of pad thai, mango sticky rice, grilled seafood, and iced Thai milk tea the entire trip. After a few days we flew to Phuket to slow things down a bit. Completely different vibe from Bangkok. We mostly spent our time around the beaches, walking by the water during sunset, and just relaxing. The water and scenery there were honestly beautiful. It felt nice having a quieter part of the trip after all the walking in Bangkok. Then we flew back to Bangkok again before going home. Spent the remaining days just exploring more areas of the city and squeezing in more food places before the flight back. It was a pretty short trip overall but Thailand ended up becoming one of my favorite trips in Southeast Asia. Would definitely go back again and probably spend more time up north next time.
