Bhutan, here I come!

The idea of a Bhutan holiday came about when my colleague was suppose to go there for work. Such an intriguing county/culture. I even got this Bhutan book for my birthday.

But due to the very government controlled tourism, this is the most expensive holiday I've ever had to pay for! THB 66,000 for a 5-day trip. At least I know my money will be going to the development of the country, not into some corporate con's pockets.

Will update if the trip is worth it or not. Tune in next week!

Oh... and HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, DAD!
