Official Bangkok Travel Guide | My Eye-Opening Bangkok Experience

[@Yanpatan]

One of my favorite places I've traveled to. The people are so kind, the food is so delicious and cheap😊 and the beaches❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@MJHarrisSpeaks]

Yes yes!! The food is amazing!

[@jccn1728]

My African American son has lived there for 4 yrs and he loves it. I’ll be visiting in January

[@kayflip2233]

You will really love it. Especially the food.

[@italishgirl5601]

I admire your adventurous spirit! We only live once…

[@KB-hj3zs]

Bangkok is someplace that my husband and I return to again and again because we love it soooo much. Glad that you find the city faring you well.

VERY INFORMATIVE!! Just want to add some more. When you're unsatisfied about something, don't use any violence whether verbal or non-verbal with the local. You could make a complain with manner. Yelling and scold won't get you a good result. In case you travel with your kids [baby, toddler] , you may find many Thai people pay attention to your children. For example, looking, giggle, pointing at your kids with smily face. It's nothing. we just love little children and think they're cute regardless of skin colors. Especially, the kids with chubby cheeks. LOL Don't worry we will not approach your child. Just enjoy their cuteness from afar.

So Sweet 😊

Thank you for the amazing information MJ! I would love to book a trip to Bangkok, TH. I would be traveling alone. I'm a middle age lady. I want to treat myself to a birthday trip to Bangkok. You said to comment below, so I did. Thank you in advance! Ramona Long Island, New York

Glad it was helpful! Bangkok is a great location for solo travel!

And yes I got my book a few weeks ago ❤️

[@evehasmanyfaces3248]

@@ramonajohnson2738 Like you I am a lady traveling alone and inspired to visit Bangkok. I plan to go in Feb 2025 (my b-day month) as I’m told it’s not too hot Jan/Feb. I’m researching now. I’ve given myself ample time to figure it out. Happy travels.

[@beachytravels]

I'm torn between returning to Bali and going to Thailand - if it were you which would you choose? And if Thailand, Phuket or Bangkok?

@MJ Harris Did you experience people touching your skin? I had multiple people touching me. Of course I didn’t understand why. Someone explained they thought it was pretty. They also didn’t think I was American or black. Honestly I experienced absolutely no racism at all Did you notice the up charge for foreigners?

[@MJHarrisSpeaks]

I did not have that experience

[@kathyb5246]

@@MJHarrisSpeaks I went in 2013. Maybe they have more of a world view. Did you notice the up charge on your receipts?

[@kayflip2233]

That won't really happen in Bangkok. Bangkok is the most visited city on earth, there are people from literally all over the world there at all times. It's not unusual to see Black people there. The Chinese are more notorious for doing that in smaller towns. But even then, it doesn't come from a negative place, they're just curious. Much better than actually experiencing true racism where they hate you which can happen in parts of Europe and America of course.

[@kathyb5246]

@@kayflip2233 There was absolutely nothing negative about my experience in Bangkok. I highly recommend that every POC visit a country where you’re not a minority because of your skin color. I felt very accepted.

[@Stressed2Capacity]

MJ, how long is an extended visa for in Bangkok and when it expires if you decide to stay longer do you seriously have to come back to the US to reapply? This video was excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

[@taracollins6610]

I love that you made this video! Thank you for all of the useful information. 😁

[@sherrymahlangu]

Best tips. Loved it. Thailand is tourist friendly. Returning tomorrow after being in Cambodia. Thank you for sharing

Thank you for sharing! Can you do an after hours version of this video? I want to know about those pockets and what they’re indulging in. 😂

You can blame the hotel. If the message is true And it is not slander or intentional bullying. It is not considered defamatory by advertising.

❤❤❤ great info thx

[@msmhamilton87]

Such a great video. It's useful to know that making negative comments/statements can be considered illegal. I'm not a negative person, but no one wants to face legal actions any where💞💞..

[@kayflip2233]

There are more and more Black Americans and Black people from around the world living and visiting Southeast and East Asia - you will love it over there. People are lovely, you'll be treated well, food is amazing, scenery is beautiful, shopping and nightlife are amazing. Plus everything is super cheap. $2 for a streetfood meal and $40 for a hotel. What's not to love? Also, you won't stand out at all if you're Black in SE Asia or Bangkok. In fact you'll blend in more with the locals than White people, simply because SE Asians and Indians who also live around SE Asia are dark. Plus our indigenous ancestors all over Asia came from Africa.

I bet you would love Vietnam, Danang 🇻🇳 stay at the intercontinental or Hyatt regency resort and spa! it’s fabulous and luxurious
