Here in this video, I took a non-air-conditioned bus from MRT Bangsue Station to Prachachuen Road, the bus fare is 80 Baht for the whole journey.
As you can see from the video Bangkok public buses still employ a bus conductor with a vintage ticket "clapper", at the same time he has an electronic ticket machine hanging from his neck, but I don't see many people use these electronic cards. Currently, we do not have a one-ticket system for the subway, sky train, boats, and buses, basically, every mode has its own e-cards, hopefully this will change in the near future.
Normally buses are jammed packed during peak hours morning, afternoons and evenings, but I was lucky to get on the bus before most schools are over at 4 pm. After 5 pm, office workers get off work and journey home, that's when the buses are overcrowded up until round about 8 pm.

Exploring a set of 3 unfinished condominium towers north of Bangkok at Muangthong Thani estate both on foot and with my mountain bike.
I climb to the top floor to capture a sunset on even though there was quite a serious dust cloud.

Family trip to the north of Thailand in July 2020, our first trip after Covid-19 lockdown has ended.
The video is of the trail in Mae Surin Waterfall National Park, Mae Hong Son, Thailand. If you stay at Fern Resort (highly recommended), the trail is just behind the resort itself.
Slightly over 8 kilometers long, but nothing technical, though I would highly suggest to start in the morning because in the afternoon it will get quite humid. I also recommend bringing a bottle of water each, and also make sure you've had plenty to drink prior.

Impact Speed Park is located in Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi province, north of Bangkok.
Electric go-karts provide instant acceleration, especially useful after wiping out on a corner, but it lacks the atmosphere provided by the noise of engines and the smell of burning fuel, plus the heat and fear you might catch fire in a crash :)
But Impact Speed Park provides both electric and gas engines, however you need to qualify for the latter by completing a round void of incidents within 54 seconds.

Impact Speed Park is located in Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi province, north of Bangkok, and nearby to the Impact Exhibition Halls & Challenger.
Since Covid-19 we've been away from the Go-Karts for over 2 years now, tired of self-quarantine, the stress of self-imprisonment is taking its toll on mental health. Time to go out and have some fun.
We went for the Sodi RTX Electric Karts (max 45 kph), even though we are all qualified to drive Sodi RT8 Gasoline Karts (max 70+ kph - way faster)
You will see in the video that 2 little kids came in 1st and 2nd place (best overall lap times), I must take the walk of shame :)
