Geru zmoniu verslas / business by good pleople

Taisykle Nr. 1: Pirma keliones diena negalima nieko pirk, nes a) viskas nauja ir idomu, b) neturi su kuo palygint, c) esi pavarges po skrydzio, d) nesusivoki valiutoj ir e) 90 % kad isdurs. Ar as pirkau? Taip. Ar isdure? Taip. Ar labai? Ne. Kaip? Vakar bevaiksciojant salia vienoa didziausiu sventyklu bankoke net nepastebejau kaip pradejau kalbetis su geru zmogu (kaip jis sake mokytoju) jis prirekomendavo man daug vietu aplankyt ir greiciau nei as susivokiau isodino i tuk-tuk. Tasai mane nuveze prie upe, kur prasidejo mano valandos kelione su valtim po Bangkoko kanalus. Be abejones uz pasiplaukiojima sumokejau per daug. Bet ne tiek per daug  juolab kad jau suprates kas vyksta stebejausi jog pasiplaukiojimas is tieau truko valanda, o kitu keliu pamatyt ka maciau nera. Kai pinigai jau dinge telieka ijungt europieti ir susitaikyt, kas savigarba labiau skauda nei pinigine.  Nuotraukos apacioje. Kaip manot, verta 32 €?

Rule No. 1: do not purchase anything on the first day of the trip  because: a) everything is new and exciting,  b) you can't make comparisons,  c) you're tired after the flight,  d) local currency is odd, e) 90 % chance that you're going to be fooled.  Have I bought anything?  Yes. Have I been fooled? Yes. Was that bad? No. How? While I was wandering next to one of the biggest temples in Bangkok I got into conversion with a good man. He gave me so many good advices, where I should go and what I should see. Before I realized anything he put me into tuk-tuk, which took me to a peer. There I got into a boat, which took me in to canals of Bangkok. Indeed I've overpaid. Nevertheless I was surprised that the trip on the boat was one hour long (just like it was promised.) Also, it would be impossible to see what I saw in any other way. When my money wad gone, there was only one thing to do: switch back an European and to admit that it hurts my self-respect much more than my wallet. You can see pictures from the trip bellow. Tell me if it's worth 32 €?
