Hi Traveler, it’s Journey Wilde with Gay Thai Travel, …and if Bangkok is on your radar, I need you to sit down, take a breath, and prepare yourself.

Chased By Temple Dogs at Wat Patong… And The Monks Watched
Hi Traveler, it’s Journey Wilde with Gay Thai Travel, Let me paint you a picture.

Hi Traveler, it’s Journey Wilde with Gay Thai Travel, Let me paint you a picture. It’s day three of my Bangkok trip.

I Visited the Grand Palace in Bangkok and My Jaw Has Not Recovered
Hi Traveler, it’s Journey Wilde with Gay Thai Travel, …and sweetie, I need to talk about what happened to me at the Grand Palace in Bangkok, because I am still not okay.

Into the Bush: My Wild Day at Khao Yai National Park (Yes, I Saw Very Long Snakes)

Hi Traveler, it’s Journey Wilde with Gay Thai Travel, Let me paint you a picture. There I am, standing on the deck of a river boat, hair doing something chaotic in the breeze, clutching a cold Chang like it owes me money, watching the sun slowly melt behind Wat Arun… and I fully teared up. […]
I Climbed a Dragon Temple in Bangkok and My Knees Have Never Forgiven Me
Hi Traveler, it’s Journey Wilde with Gay Thai Travel, …and I need to tell you about the day I willingly climbed seventeen floors inside a dragon. Let me back up. Bangkok has temples.
