Steemit Meet-Up #5: Talad Neon, Bangkok
Hello Steemians and DLivers,
Hope everyone had a great weekend! This video is slightly delayed as DLive's 'Upload a Video' option wasn't fully functional over the past few days.
On Sunday 29th of July, I (Sam) managed to meet up with some more Steemians in real life! This was my fifth meet-up (fourth in Bangkok). I managed to meet-up with @jpphotography and @worldcapture. After talking on the 'Steemit Travellers' Discord channel for a few weeks, we decided to meet up as @jpphotography had a few days in Bangkok before heading over to Myanmar and @worldcapture lives just outside of Bangkok and was willing to come in to meet-up! We met up at Phaya Thai BTS station and walked for about 20-25 minutes to a relatively new (opened in the past year or so) night market called 'Talad Neon' in the Pratunam area (near Pantip Plaza). The loud and bustling night market was the perfect place for us to soak up the hectic Bangkok atmosphere as well as dive into some delicious Thai food (Som Tam - Thai Papaya Salad, Chicken Panang Curry and Laab (or) Larb - Mince Pork with Thai herbs and spices). Of course, we had to wash it down with a cold Thai beer on a hot and humid night! That was only the beginning of the night! Find out what else we did! Enjoy the video!
The meet-up was awesome! It was great talking to @jpphotography and @worldcapture about the positives and negatives as well as the highs and lows (struggles) of the Steemit platform and; how we all see the future of Steem. Discussing these topics in person makes it more meaningful and valid. Yes, we all learnt something new from each other. Mainly, @worldcapture and I learning a lot from @jpphotography! I would encourage Steemians to get involved in meet-ups! To many more meet-ups!
As always,
Stay Classy Steemians and DLivers!
My video is at DLive
