01:00.4
Uy! Ang chinelas ko!
01:02.4
Ingat-ngat ba yung chinelas ko?
01:04.2
Ayan, nangangat-ngat sila. Taas mo nga yung chinelas ko, lagay mo na dito.
01:07.9
May suklay as if naman may susuklayin ako.
01:11.9
So eto yung aking cosmetic bag.
01:17.4
Nginat-ngat na po nila.
01:20.4
Nginat-ngat na nila ang aking telang, si Maring Elvie.
01:25.4
Uy! Tingnan mo, ginawa kay Maring Elvie, oh! Binutas na.
01:29.4
Ganyan po sila, pag alam nilang magta-travel, nagbabao na ko ng chinelas.
01:34.4
Parang hindi ito yung packing cube ko.
01:36.9
Teka nga po, nawawala na yung isang packing cube.
01:39.9
Eto po ang aking maletang ginagamit.
01:44.9
I bought this in, ano ba?
01:51.9
I bought this maleta in Dubai.
01:54.4
Kasi kinulang ako ng maleta.
01:56.9
So sabi ng sister ko si Diane, bumili ka ng isang rimowang malaki, Diyos ko.
02:01.4
Binili ko po, 100k.
02:05.4
Samantalang ito yung inorder nila online, oh! Magkano ito?
02:10.8
Hindi naman po siguro liliit ang mga damit ko.
02:14.8
Magpapalit ang kulay ng mga damit ko pag dito ko nilagay.
02:18.3
So lesson learned, mula nun hindi na po ako bumili ng mamahaling maleta.
02:25.8
Dear, aluhin mo nga yan.
02:28.3
Pinaka-importante sa lahat, pwede ko maiwan tong maletang to kasi makakapabili ka naman ng, ano ba?
02:35.3
Papasok ko kayo dito.
02:40.3
Halika, pumasok ka dito oh Bambi.
02:47.3
Oh! Ayaw pumasok.
02:51.3
Fake daw kasing rimowa tong bag mo.
02:56.8
Sa bagay, ano naman ito eh?
03:02.8
Pillow, pillow to life.
03:04.8
Saka yung kumot ko, ganito po ang kumot ko.
03:07.8
Kahit sa 5-star hotel po ako tumira, yung mga may nalalaman pang pillow menu.
03:12.8
Pillow menu yan, mga ganyan.
03:15.3
Hindi, nagbabaon ako ng ulan ko.
03:17.8
Pinakuna din yung aking hand carry bag.
03:20.8
Eto, this is my hand carry bag.
03:24.3
I like it kasi ang daming malalagay.
03:26.8
Nandito na yung sombrero ko.
03:28.8
I have here pack of toiletries na kailangan ko.
03:33.8
Even my passport is already here.
03:36.8
Pinakuna siya kanina.
03:38.3
So yan lang and as you can see, I'm just a light traveler.
03:42.8
I don't bring a lot of things.
03:44.8
I just really need my ulan.
03:47.8
So see you in Bangkok.
03:58.3
Nandito na kami sa airport.
04:00.8
Papunta ng Bangkok.
04:03.3
So this is an early flight.
04:16.3
Girl, why is your bag so heavy?
04:19.3
The gays haven't travel yet, the bag is already heavy.
04:23.3
Ayan na yung bag ni Erin.
04:27.3
Ilang kilo yung bag niya?
04:38.2
Pwede makapag-uwi ng $5 nila.
04:40.2
Ayan, sulitin mo, sulitin mo.
04:53.2
Iti-terose lahat niya.
04:56.2
Ayan, tignan mo parang nag-buffet.
05:04.2
Gutom ka? Gutom ka, girl?
05:18.2
Beautiful legroom.
05:21.2
Dito sa Thai Airways, even at economy class.
05:31.2
Welcome to Bangkok!
05:51.2
Welcome to Bangkok!
05:55.2
So we're already here, we're waiting for our luggage.
05:59.2
Ang ganda-ganda dito, super smooth especially the immigration process.
06:05.2
It took us only 5 minutes.
06:07.2
May pila pero sobrang bilis kasi sobrang daming immigration officers na naka-deploy.
06:14.2
Talagang as a tourist, you will feel na welcome, na welcome ka talaga dito sa Bangkok.
06:22.2
And bakit ba dito ako nakatayo?
06:23.2
Kasi mag-wi-withdraw ko ng Thai Baht sa ATM.
06:27.1
Yun kasi yung isa sa natutunan ko, hindi ka natatalo sa exchange rate.
06:32.1
If you withdraw money directly from the ATM machine.
06:37.1
Meron pa ding konting charges pero not as much kung magpapalit ka ng peso
06:44.1
or magpapalit ka pa ng dollar sa Pinas.
06:47.1
Magpapalit ka pa pala ng peso into US dollars sa Pinas
06:51.1
tapos magpapalit ka dito to Thai Baht, mas medyo nalulugi ka.
06:55.1
So ayan, naginghintay lang ako sa pila and kunin natin yung maleta and we'll travel to the hotel.
07:05.1
Ayan, so may network fee.
07:08.1
Accept, may choice pa ba?
07:11.1
Nako, hindi ko naging jintindihan ang nakasulat dito.
07:16.1
Nakonaghang, yun pala walang naman yung ATM ko.
07:22.1
Hindi ko po siya naiintindihan, naghang na po siya.
07:26.1
Teka, ika-cancel ko muna kasi po hindi ko malaman paano ko ba i-english to.
07:33.1
So P10,000 siguro muna.
07:38.1
Hindi, alam mo ang syunga-syunga ko.
07:41.1
I'll change the language first to English.
07:44.1
Ah, ikaw nakapag-withdraw ka?
07:46.1
Nauna-hampanya ako, Diyos ko.
07:48.1
Siyempre, pangkera naman po siya and then change language.
07:52.1
So dito pala tayo sa English.
07:55.1
Oh, withdraw P10,000.
07:59.1
At dito daw, ita times 1.5 to 1.6 mo.
08:03.1
Okay, mag-withdraw pa ako na isang P10,000.
08:06.1
Pero ako, sa totoo lang ha, hindi na po ako masyado nag-convert.
08:12.1
Pagka nag-biabyahe ko.
08:14.1
Kasi if you keep on converting, madi-depress ka lang.
08:18.1
Pero alam mo kung ano yung mas nakaka-depress?
08:20.1
Yung wala kang ma-withdraw.
08:23.1
Eh ako po ha, nagtrabaho po akong mabuti bago po ako nag-biyahe.
08:29.1
Para may pang-aura.
08:31.1
Diba ganoon naman eh, life is like that.
08:34.1
Life is like that.
08:37.1
Withdraw pa tayo ng isa pa.
08:39.1
Para pagdating doon, hindi ka na yung pagdating mo sa hotel
08:43.0
tsaka mo pa kahaliglapin diba kung saan ka mag-wi-withdraw.
08:50.0
Binabaan ko yung amount kasi BDO has a limit of P50,000 withdrawal a day.
08:58.0
So I guess baka may mga binayaran ako online.
09:03.0
Eto mag-wi-withdraw.
09:05.0
Huwag mo na video ha.
09:06.0
Kaya mag-wi-withdraw na.
09:10.0
Iyan mo yung pin para makita ng netizens yung pin niya.
09:18.0
Papakabit kami ng SIM card and for only 299 baht.
09:24.0
Meron ka ng 15GB for 8 days.
09:29.0
So perfect na perfect yan if you want to book your grab
09:33.0
at ka nagpalagay ng SIM card for your TikTok, diba?
09:38.0
So a must have when traveling in Thailand.
09:42.0
Pwede ka naman mag-roaming pero kasi based on experience
09:46.0
noong nag-Vietnam kami, pag-roaming medyo minsan napuputol-putol yung
09:51.0
you need to keep on refreshing so mas type namin yung ganitong
09:56.0
magpapakabit ka nalang ng local SIM card
09:59.0
and hindi ka din masya shock sa bill mo pag uwi.
10:04.0
Hi! Iyan na. That's me.
10:17.0
Iyan, we're checking in.
10:21.0
Iyan, na-miss ko itong amoy na ito.
10:23.0
So this is our favorite hotel here in Bangkok.
10:27.0
We first stayed here, mga 20 years ago na, diba?
10:32.0
And yung amoy niya hindi pa rin nagbabago.
10:37.0
Nandito tayo sa Pratunam.
10:39.0
Amari is located in Pratunam.
10:41.0
So nasa center tayo ng lahat.
10:44.0
The famous Platinum Mall, Central World, Siam Paragon.
10:50.0
Lahat are within walking distance.
10:53.0
This is one of the best locations.
10:56.0
Hindi po ito sponsored ha.
10:58.9
Nag-giant galore po kami.
11:01.9
Iyan, makikita nyo magpe-pay po tayo.
11:04.9
Talagang, if you want comfort and accessibility,
11:12.9
we highly recommend this hotel.
11:14.9
Actually, dapat dun kami magche-check in sa,
11:18.9
hindi ko nababanggitin pero mas affordable na hotel.
11:21.9
Pero since kasama namin si nanay,
11:24.9

11:28.9
And okay din yung breakfast dito,
11:30.9
and okay din yung service.
11:32.9
Kaya dito kami nag-check in.
11:35.9
Erin, sana naman may painom.
11:37.9
Wala mong welcome drink?
11:39.9
Wait lang, gina-arrange na lang.
11:45.9
Tanungin mo, sabihin mo na, how tayo?
11:48.9
Paano mo sasabihin?
11:54.9
Uy, magwawala na tayo dito pag walang welcome drink.
12:01.9
Ito oh, syempre dito Thailand is famous for their orchids.
12:08.9
Ayan siya, plastic siya.
12:22.9
Ang sarap, lasang mahalang babal.
12:26.9
Passion fruit, lasang fresh.
12:30.9
So nandito na tayo, this is our room.
12:33.9
Wow, amoy bago kasi newly renovated daw tong wing na to.
12:39.9
Ayan, they have a nice seating area.
12:43.9
And you have a nice view of Pratonam as you can see here.
12:53.9
Beautiful view of Pratonam.
12:56.9
Medyo nalungkot lang ako kasi ito pong area na to before.
13:00.9
Ngayon ay demolished na.
13:03.9
Iyan po ay palengke.
13:05.9
And of course, fresh flowers.
13:08.8
So we'll enjoy our stay here in Bangkok.
13:14.8
So our room has access to the club.
13:21.8
So ito may finger foods, cheese, cold cuts, cocktails.
13:29.8
Oh ito, ang cute-cute nito.
13:31.8
One of their unique petit fours.
13:34.8
And of course, our favorite in Bangkok is their very sweet fruits.
13:41.8
There's pandan chicken, chicken wings and we can also order cocktails.
13:57.8
So here, let's order cocktails.
14:00.8
Which one is the favorite?
14:08.8
Okay, I want the Saitan.
14:10.8
So these are the signature Thai cocktails inspired by the flow of the water.
14:17.8
Perfect blend of gin, lime juice, cucumber syrup.
14:23.8
So let's try that.
14:25.8
We'll enjoy our first evening cocktail.
14:29.8
Cocktails here in Bangkok.
14:31.8
Then we'll go out to have dinner.
14:40.8
We're going to have dinner, our first dinner in Bangkok.
14:45.8
So there, we're walking here in the beautiful Pratunam area.
14:52.8
So our hotel is just across the Platinum Mall.
14:57.8
And that's the famous Platinum Mall.
15:01.8
We will look for food for dinner.
15:05.8
The weather is nice today, it's cool.
15:09.8
It's like you're in Baguio or Tagaytay.
15:17.8
Do you agree that Erin has lost weight?
15:26.7
So it's nice to walk around here, right?
15:29.7
Obviously, you may not wear a mask.
15:33.7
On the other side of the Platinum, you can see there the street foods.
15:41.7
We're going to visit that later.
15:45.7
My shoes are dirty.
15:48.7
So here, I'm just gonna wash my shoes.
15:51.7
Oh my God! Why did I wash my shoes on the trash?
15:54.7
Hotel Ground and Chef Arvin.
15:58.7
So there, along the road.
16:01.7
You will see later the shopping.
16:04.7
That's what I want here in Pratunam.
16:08.7
Of course, the sweetest fruits.
16:12.7
If you're craving for mango and sticky rice.
16:16.7
This is grapefruit.
16:25.7
Let's take a picture.
16:28.7
But I'll put it here.
16:30.7
So you can see it.
17:08.7
I just saw this on Instagram.
17:11.7
Tom Yum is said to be delicious here.
17:15.7
Is that the place 168?
17:27.7
Do you want to eat Thai food?
17:31.7
Or do you want to get a haircut in the parlor?
17:37.7
There, the haircut is so cheap.
17:38.7
Just ask me how much is the haircut there, quick.
17:40.7
You get a haircut there.
17:42.7
You get a haircut.
17:43.7
It's said that there are celebrities who get a haircut there.
17:46.7
I saw this restaurant on Instagram and there are a lot of good reviews.
17:51.7
Especially on their Jumbo Tom Yum.
17:55.6
The Jumbo Tom Yum, 289 baht.
18:01.6
My voice is so loud.
18:03.6
They don't know us here, my God.
18:06.6
So let's taste it.
18:08.6
So here, they put egg yolk.
18:13.6
The moment of truth.
18:26.6
I'll put it for you.
18:32.6
Do you want to have some?
18:33.6
You know what its taste is?
18:35.6
Even if you don't like spicy food, you will like it.
18:43.6
It's pungent but it's pungent is smooth.
18:47.6
It's very aromatic.
18:49.6
It really smells like Thailand.
18:51.6
It's like when you smell it when you serve it, you know that it's authentic.
18:58.6
It's so delicious.
18:59.6
Highly recommended.
19:01.6
Oh and this is the sea bass.
19:04.6
You will be surprised when you see this.
19:11.6
You can already smell the fresh ingredients.
19:15.6
Fresh spices, fresh herbs are used.
19:18.6
And Thai cooking is really known for the use of the freshest ingredients.
19:24.6
So this is the fried sea bass with salsa on top.
19:29.6
So this is the fish.
19:31.6
I will taste the fried sea bass.
19:38.6
It's crispy when it's fried.
19:40.6
It also has fish.
19:43.6
The fish, you can really taste the freshness.
19:46.6
And the salsa, the ingredients they use.
19:50.6
The vegetables are still crunchy.
19:53.6
And I love that they added cashew because it gives added texture to the salsa.
20:03.6
Let's try the Pad Thai.
20:05.6
This is the Pad Thai.
20:14.5
Although, I have a more delicious Pad Thai that I ate in Bangkok.
20:19.5
I ordered one more set of Curry Mitomian because their soup is really delicious here.
20:41.5
Walking after dinner, for the food to be dropped.
20:45.5
The malls here are open until 10pm.
21:16.5
So this is just all connected through the food bridge.
21:29.5
The Bangkok's street food market is here.
21:32.5
The last time I went here before the pandemic, it's gone.
21:38.5
But now, it's here again.
22:00.5
Just like that because in Bangkok, elephants are very very sacred.
22:05.5
The elephant acts are very dear to them.
22:09.5
We're both, even though I'm not from here in Thailand.
22:12.5
The ceremonies of the elephants.
22:15.5
The last one is the release of the elephants to their jungle, to their forest.
22:21.5
Even royal blood is the witness, the one who blesses those ceremonies
22:29.5
because elephants are believed to bring good luck.
22:33.5
So we will buy flowers.
22:36.5
They have Lord of Love, Lord of Success.
22:43.5
Chirimuti and Ganesha.
22:46.5
So we will combine both Chirimuti and Ganesha.
22:52.5
I will go to Chirimuti first.
22:56.5
So they just put it.
23:00.5
So this is to Chirimuti.
23:02.5
So this is Chirimuti, they don't put incense.
23:10.5
And the other one, we will combine it with Ganesha.
23:24.5
So here, we are on the night market in front of the hotel
23:28.4
and since we don't like to eat, we don't like to buy from the market.
23:35.4
We will just stay here in MacDo.
23:36.4
What is this called?
23:38.4
This time, we like to eat curly fries.
23:40.4
You don't like to eat curly fries.
23:43.4
This is new in the menu of MacDo.
23:47.4
Well, this is just here in Thailand.
23:50.4
What kind of pie is this?
23:51.4
This is sweet golden pie.
23:55.4
What is inside it?
23:57.4
Then this is corn pie, I'm intrigued with this.
23:59.9
Then this is like Churros.
24:03.4
So this is like a breakfast item.
24:05.4
It's inspired, it's like Chinese style.
24:08.4
You will dip it in condensed milk.
24:12.4
It smells so good.
24:18.4
Do you know why it's so...
24:22.4
Do you know why it's so delicious for me?
24:26.9
Is this cooked in the oil of the fries?
24:32.9
It's like the donuts in the Philippines.
24:37.9
The taste is so good.
24:39.9
It can be sugar, cinnamon.
24:42.9
It's so delicious.
24:43.9
This is the golden pie first.
24:50.9
It's like this is more delicious than Churros.
24:53.9
It's like it's filled with sweet potato and coconut.
24:59.9
That's why it's called Sweet Golden.
25:04.9
It's a bit exotic.
25:09.9
No, it's for me, okay?
25:11.4
But if you will ask me.
25:14.9
Because we have a corn pie in a fast food chain, right?
25:19.4
This one is more legit because you can really feel the coconut inside.
25:25.4
It's not pretending.
25:26.9
And then this one is corn pie.
25:29.4
It's like it has maja inside.
25:34.4
The corn pie is delicious.
25:41.4
But this one is really...
25:44.4
This one is life-changing for me.
25:47.3
It's like you can't imagine that there's something like this in McDonald's.
25:54.3
It's just simple, right?
25:56.3
Well because McDonald's is really...
26:00.3
It's more than...
26:01.8
I didn't promote it, okay?
26:03.3
It's more than just a fast food.
26:05.3
It's a cultural comfort food.
26:08.3
It's like if you're afraid to explore food in exotic places.
26:15.3
You'll look for McDonald's and you would normally feel safe
26:19.3
because the familiarity of flavors are there.
26:22.3
But at the same time, they also incorporate the local flavors in their menu.
26:29.8
It's like in the Philippines, in the Philippines, we have Spaghetti with a lot of cheese.
26:33.8
But here, it's not.
26:35.3
And the Taro Pie, I really like that.
26:38.3
And if I may share, my most expensive McDonald's experience in Switzerland.
26:43.3
Because they really put Swiss Cheese inside.
26:49.3
The sun is up and we're gonna have breakfast downstairs.
27:15.3
And they're here.
27:17.3
So they have pastries and look at the jams.
27:22.3
And our favorite, the Sweet Fruits.
27:25.3
Sweet, Juicy and Fresh Fruits.
27:27.8
Oh! There's also Sushi.
27:33.3
And they have egg selection, you can order.
27:39.3
We'll get two Avocado Toast.
27:43.2
They have here like Cereal, Yogurt, Fresh Juices, Yogurt Juice.
28:22.2
We're going to the Reclining Buddha.
28:26.2
The weather is nice.
28:28.2
It's not hot, right?
28:29.7
This is the best time to visit Bangkok.
28:33.2
Even though it's noon right now but the weather is nice.
28:45.2
So there's an entrance fee of how much? 200?
28:49.2
So there's an entrance fee of 200 baht per person.
29:17.2
So of course, your Bangkok trip is not complete if you won't visit the beautiful temples.
29:27.2
What I like about this is that these temples are just in the city.
29:32.2
So it took us only around 15 minutes.
29:36.2
You can even take a taxi to go here.
29:40.2
So there, you're already there.
29:41.2
There's just a small entrance fee but of course, right?
29:45.1
Aside from the pictures, the street foods, the food.
29:49.1
It's also amazing that we have pictures here in the temples.
29:55.1
So after the quite tiring temple tour, we're here at Vivi Coffee Place.
30:19.1
They say that their crepe cakes are famous here.
30:22.1
And it's beautiful, it's overlooking Wat Arun.
30:26.1
So they are famous for their Thai Tea Crepe Cake.
30:30.1
They also have Coconut Cake.
30:33.1
For me, I want Thai Milk Tea.
30:35.1
This is the Thai Milk Tea Crepe Cake.
30:41.1

The taste of milk tea is lacking here but when you buy it or you eat it with this.
31:24.1

33:24.0
Here, you can really see it especially for those who are lazy to peel crabs like me.
33:32.0
So this one, it's already mixed, it's just the meat only.
33:36.0
And what I like in this restaurant, the chunks of crab are very generous.
33:49.0
This is Green Beef Curry.
33:50.9
So you would go here for the Crab Fishes.
33:54.4
But I hope that there's someone who will eat all of it.
33:58.9
So our total bill is around 6,000 baht or for our money, more or less 10,000 pesos.
34:06.9
Imagine that it's all crabs, seafood and we still have a lot of food left.
34:12.4
We still have drinks.
34:14.4
So it's worth it and to think that you're still here in Icon Siam.
34:18.4
One of the high-end malls in Bangkok.
34:23.4
So basically, the food is cheap or reasonably priced.
34:29.4
Yes. Okay, since you agree, you pay.
34:53.4
So we're at the Icon Siam, if you want to go to the market but you want to use your airphone.
35:00.9
This is the place for you.
35:02.4
This is a new mall, well I don't know if it's new.
35:05.4
But in 2019, I went to Bangkok last.
35:08.9
It's not yet developed like this and it's style is that it's like you're on a floating market.
35:16.9
It's so gorgeous here, right?
35:18.9
It's like you're not on a mall.
35:20.9
But there, there's a floating market.
35:38.9
So there, look at the line.
35:42.9
It seems like it's crowded even though it's small.
35:49.9
It looks like a cockroach.
