Day 1 in Bangkok

Sara’s Hotel
9 Soi Sukhumvit 3, Nana Nua, Wattana, Bangkok

Michael and I’ve moved out of our lovely house and have embarked on a 43-day journey on the way to starting a new chapter in our lives.

We left Bahrain in the early hours of the morning of the 5th of January and arrived in Bangkok via Dubai in the late afternoon yesterday. We haven’t stayed at Sara’s Hotel before but we had some idea of what to expect from this boutique hotel from what we had read when booking our first 3 nights in Bangkok here.

We were not disappointed. The eclectic style of this small hotel is everywhere apparent even before you step inside the doors to the lobby. Some might describe it as a bit excessive but it works and it’s fun. Almost every nook and cranny has been loving filled with delightfully quirky art deco and Victorian objet dárt.

  4. I watched you pack your beautiful house dear friend. It was with overwhelming feelings of sadness at times but I know that you and Michael will have a wonderful semi retirement. I say semi since you guys will always be busy.
    Wonderful couple of days entries with great photos. Do I feel a book coming on?

    1. Your intuitions could be right but there is a book/s with a much more urgent priority. Looking forward to seeing those completed – with a lot of help from you and your publishing smarts of course! 🥰
