A short but productive day. It seems very easy to get lost here so I decided to follow Hauykaew Rd towards the old city and then just stuck to the wall. My first goal was to find an adaptor and converter, although I charged my phone overnight and it didn't explode I was worried about plugging anything else in. I stumbled upon a large building which housed an electronics market of sorts and was able to buy the adaptor there and found a large electronics store a bit farther down which had the converter I was looking for.
In the market I was excited to meet another American! And better yet, he's looking for English teachers for a program that helps underprivileged Thai people. I also saw a flyer looking for a private tutor, so maybe it won't be too hard to find a job after this!
The highlight of the day though was stumbling upon the Free Bird Cafe, they have plenty of vegetarian and vegan options and a knowledgable American expat who gave me my first map and was able to point me to a market and a grocery store. The food was delicious too!
The grocery store is in the bottom of a large shopping mall with lots of American companies like Pizza Hut and Starbucks.
