N ice. It’s been a while since I’ve been ion Bangkok. Almost ten years actually. part of the “new travel” for me might be to travel “back” to selected places. Did that last year in Asia. Went back to Singapore and Cambodia.
Cheers
That’s a great way to frame it — traveling “back” hits different than chasing somewhere new.
Returning isn’t about ticking a place off a list; it’s about seeing what changed… and what you changed. Bangkok after ten years is basically a different city and a different you walking through it. Singapore and Cambodia too — the nostalgia is real, but so is the recalibration: you notice different details.
Recalibration… It’s exactly that. (Having said that, I’m not sure I’ll travel abroad this year…)
