Travel Pro Places of Interest Video Tour #7: China Town Markets in Bangkok Thailand with Special Guest Lily Wang! Part One (8 min video)
Hey there my Steemit friends! In these Market Tour Videos we explore markets from around the world. The markets are always a lot of fun; you never know what we will see and who we will meet. We learn about new food and often have exciting interactions with the locals in this series.
In today's video, we hang out with my friend Lily Wang. She is Chinese American and has lived in China Town in San Fransisco for years. She's an MIT Grad and a fun addition to this latest "Places of Interest Market Tour" here in China Town, Bangkok Thailand.

Another truly fascinating market video, bro! Of all the types of videos you do, I think the walkthroughs of various markets are the ones I enjoy the most.
What are those big prickly things at the very start of the video? Are they some kind of fruit?
The black cat at 0:18 is great. I was tempted to make some tacky joke about pussy for sale in Thailand, but I won't...
The cashews look awesome. Sadly, all types of nuts are expensive here in Argentina. Well, all foods are getting bad. A single-serving envelope of Maruchan ramen noodles now costs the peso-equivalent of one US dollar. It's brutal.
And I love your candor - 1:23 "I do not really know what that it, but it looks...kinda gross".
Anyhow, enough point by point commentary.
Much respect to your friend Lily Wang. A degree from MIT is no small thing. It sure beats the hell out of my 4-year Liberal Arts degree from a notorious Southern California party school :)
What a great comment. Thank you so much for the kind words. It's more fun doing these videos with someone to banter with just a bit, makes me a little more funny on video too I think.
That fruit you see is Durian.
Yes, Lily worked hard for the MIT degree. She certainly earned it.
Where in Argentina are you from? I love Argentina. I may be coming back to visit later this year, and maybe we could meet up.
Thanks again for the comment and supporting my work here.

Heya WTP, sorry so slow to reply here, this one got past me. I'm in Buenos Aires, and I'd love to get together for a coffee next time you're here
I love that city. We'll certainly have to meet up next time I visit. Not sure wen but I'll surely let you know.
I have always wanted to visit a Chinese market, I do not know but they offer many interesting things in their markets, I like the style they have, it's all together but it looks neat
Hey there. Thanks for the comment. Yes this market was a lot of fun. Glad you enjoyed the video! :)
Nice video. I think I went to the same market a few years ago
Wow very amazing in the travel

Thanks for the kind words. Have a great day!

Hi, man
We are ok. You are so right we are in Poland. Is very cold totally different climate than you have in Thailand :) I found hobby and I think that we stay here for a while. We didn't stop our trips but we just postpone for a little bit. Margaret is very happy here and I enjoy her smile. I hope soon we will share some part of our new life and new trips but now is winter and very cold.
Greetings my friend
Glad to hear you and Margaret are doing well. Happy wife, happy life....at least that is how the saying goes. Seems like you two are a great couple. Enjoy Poland and looking forward to hearing about where you guys are going next. Have a great day!

Oh my God I have to actually hysterical! First of all oh, I love these Market videos. You really have met your match with these. It's interesting to watch the aisles as they split up and turn different ways and all the different foods off of these. I am full just walking through with you and smelling all of this.
The black cat? I thought the lady was going to have a heart attack and didn't know what to do with it. They are not sacred or anything over there, correct? I mean she could have given it the boot if she wanted to unless of course it has some higher religious meaning. Anyway you walking through saying I don't know what that is but it's gross! This walkthrough through did not help me Identify some of those things.
I love going through and seeing the different things and have to admit that it's just not trying to town unless they have cheap Chinese little trinkets. Oh my God I will tell you that I almost totally lost it when you said that. Not only did you say it once, but you said it twice. I think because once wasn't enough. This was great and I'm so happy to see you posting them. If you remember could you drop the links in my market Friday comment section. It helps get a lot more exposure if you do it early on Friday.
Upped and steemed

PS. Lily was great!
Thanks Denise. Love your feedback. I had a lot of fun going through this market with Lily. She is a lot of fun to hang out with. I'm glad you got a few laughs out of it. I try to keep things light. It was good start of the video with the black cat too! lol
Just dropped the links of both post into your market Friday post. Thanks for the resteem and up-vote. Since I don't spend much time on the computer. I sometimes don't even know when my posts come out, using auto post and all. So thanks for the reminder. That being said, I just put you on my auto-voter, to help you out a bit. I should have done that sooner. It's a challenge for me sometimes as I have not work for the past 12 years, just traveling and enjoying my life. So I've had to figure out a way to spend as little time on my computer as possible while still keeping up with my blog. It's been a challenge at times, but I've got a few good systems in place. Just to give you an idea of why you have to keep reminding me, sorry about that, but I'm doing the best I can for me.
I've got a ton of great market posts coming out this week, well, every week as I'm in love with markets too!
Thanks for all the support and have a great day!
