Bangkok wedding bells

On the 1st July I flew to Bangkok with a number of other Phnom Penhites to attend the truly memorable wedding of Michelle and Derick; the celebration of a gorgeous couple who have obviously found happiness and laughter with each other. The wedding, held in a traditional Thai house on the university campus where they met at during a Masters year, combined traditions from both Catholic and Jewish faiths and managed to withstand the obligatory monsoonal downpour. Michelle and Derick had members of their families from the Philippines and the USA present, along with friends from all over the world, including colleagues and friends from their current home, Cambodia.

It was a really memorable day, and weekend, which I feel very lucky to have been a part of.

Dinner with Reggie and some of his Thai friends at Kuppa@Playground - a new concept space in Bangkok that has a collection of design stores (interiors, fashion, literature etc) + exhibition and instilation spaces + restaurants that include cooking demonstration spaces. Just across the border from Cambodia - feels like a world away.

Lampini Night Market - Rhianna was on the hunt for a last minute handbag bargin... Mullberry brown leather.... mission accomplished, and at half the original price, even Reg was impressed with my haggling!
