Bangkok Soi 39

I headed over to Bangkok Soi 39. This area in Phrom Phong has incredible condos and places to eat.
Here's a few links for my favorite credit cards. I try to check the links often, but let me know if there is a problem. If they change the offer on the card, I may need to update the link. Full disclosure, I get a few airline miles for referring a new customer. You should get the same public offer at no additional cost. Thank you very much.

    Greetings Joe, another amazing clear and scenic video of magnificent locations in Bangkok. You are correct on the use of space in Asia, very conservative. Surely Boon is well and having the time of her life in your company as well as her endeavors? You think that truck has enough mirrors, looking good though 😂? I have never seen so many electrical wires clustered together as such in Thailand, Wow. What model iPhone or Android are you using to film with? Happy Birthday 🎁🎈🎉 Joe! Thanks so much for sharing and I look forward to your next episode of adventures in Thailand 🇹🇭.
