I have been 2 times to NYC, 2 or 3 (don’t even know anymore😅 to Chicago and short to LA, longer to SF) This was 8 years ago.

For me Asia is always my home. It’s the 8 time here and for longer period of times. Most people in the west (also where I am from Netherlands/Europe) think often it’s less advanced here. But I have here everything that I need. Next to this there is still a lot of respect/friendliness in a big city as Bangkok (I talk than also outside the tourist zones) The food is amazing on every conner of the street and affordable. I don’t even feel anymore the need to go to the mayor European and American cities because Asia got it all for me. But everything has its good and bad but Bangkok is for sure not less than New York/ SF etc.

For me personally Bangkok is better. As an artist they have amazing art galleries (free for the public what I think is lovely) and insane good Thai artist that inspire me. And there is a big bitcoin & nostr community here. #siamstr
