One afternoon during our Thailand vacation last year, I left my husband in the hotel (basking under the scorching sun 35C approx, yay!) , packed up may camera and lenses and went to the nearby market. We we’re in Hua Hin, our favorite province in the Southern part, just about 198 kilometers from Bangkok.
I’m quite familiar with the area since I worked and lived there for several years in the 90’s, but unlike my Dutch husband, it wasn’t just the warmth of the sun that I was after during that October vacation but I really wanted to visit all the places that were close to my heart. And well, in most of those places food is involved.
I am going to do a series of entry of my visits….so here’s to start it with. It was around 1pm when I went to the market and it was still early for most Thai people to get their snacks. This lady selling grilled hotdogs and seafood balls was quite early. Early bird do catches the worm, right?
When I was still living there, I must admit those squid balls were one of my favorite snacks…spicy and yummy! Inexpensive as well.
Look at how clean the area was! Well, Thai people are known for their cleanliness too.
more yummy snacks!
It was so nice of her to let me take her photos…
hmm….now I want some hotdogs!!
join me on my next market trip, aye? ;)
More and more Europeans are discovering the beauty of Asia. Its countries, histories, people, vast cultures and beautiful natural resources that are not to be found in Europe. Among the dutch people that I personally know, most of them are getting more open to the idea of visiting Asian countries, not just for vacation but to really explore what different countries in the continent can offer to people from the other side of the globe.

There are many wonderful countries that I am dreaming of visiting. 2 in particular are in the Middle east. Egypt and Dubai. Egypt for all the pyramids and historical places while Dubai, is to experience all those wonderful stories I heard from people who live or been to Dubai. I have also read about how Dubai is fast becoming vacation haven! Not only they have those magnificent 5 starts hotel but many type of accommodations to choose which are affordable to those who can not shell out payments for 5-star lodgings.
What I heard about Dubai the most is the breathtaking view, fast paced life, tall wonderful buildings , shopping haven..that becoming popular from travelers around the world. Some even stay in Dubai for a period of time because that’s how much they enjoy the country. But not only travelers who are traveling for fun and visiting the country, but many business people as well. And they know just where to find dubai hotel apartments one they simply rent for either long or short stays. These hotel apartments may be a bit expensive than ordinary hotel but they sure come with extras.

When going on vacation, the top priority of many people is the accommodation, and then how to get there, and activities in the area. But one thing that sometimes makes booking a bit of an irritation is the language barrier between the travelers and the travel agents.
The answer to that is ofertas de hoteles. This is an online travel agent that is totally written in Spanish language to cater to the Spanish travelers who do not speak English. They can find all that they need for their vacation and trip needs. Browsing for the right hotel in the area where they want to visit is easy, as well as booking the flights and car rentals. No more difficulty in booking vacation but instead even the fun starts from doing the booking itself. Hoteles also have a costumer service center to answer any queries the travelers might have.
