Bangkok, Thailand

Bangkok is the capital of Thailand and its biggest city. It sits along the Chao Phraya River in central Thailand, spreading out over a large area with nearly 9 million people living in the city itself and over 17 million in the surrounding region. It’s a place that mixes old traditions with modern life. On one side, you’ve got ancient temples like Wat Pho and Wat Arun, and on the other, you’ve got massive shopping malls and skyscrapers. The city has been around for a long time, starting as a small trading post in the 15th century. It became the capital in 1782 when King Rama I moved it to the eastern bank of the river. Over the years, Bangkok has seen a lot—colonial pressures, modernization, political protests, and economic growth. It really took off in the 1980s and 1990s when foreign companies started setting up shop there. Bangkok is known for being busy and full of life. The streets are packed with cars, motorbikes, and tuk-tuks, which often leads to heavy traffic. Despite effort...

    7.4 Day Week

    The 4 Day Work Week job board is a site that lists jobs where you work fewer days—usually four—without losing pay. Most jobs are around 32 hours a week, giving people more free time while still earning the same salary. The main pitch is better work-life balance without sacrificing income. The site is pretty simple to navigate. You can browse jobs by categories like Customer Support, Engineering, Marketing, and Sales. Engineering seems to have the most listings. There are filters for remote work, location, seniority, and hours. Most of the jobs are remote and based in places like the USA, UK, Canada, and Europe. Companies offering these roles vary, but the listings show salary ranges and schedules (often "4 x 9hr days" or "4 x 8hr days"). Some roles are high-paying, especially in tech or product management, while others offer decent mid-range salaries. The job board also offers extras like free resume reviews and email alerts. There’s a big focus on helping you land a job faster, with things like AI tools for resumes and cover letters. They even have FAQs that cover common concerns—like whether benefits are the same (they usually are), or if working four days means you’re lazy (spoiler: no). Overall, it’s aimed at people who want to work smarter, not longer, without taking a pay cut.

    Image for Thai Cuisine
    2.Thai Cuisine

    Thai cuisine is all about bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and a balance of sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and spicy tastes. Every meal feels like a mix of contrasts that somehow just works. You’ve got fragrant herbs like lemongrass, Thai basil, and kaffir lime leaves, paired with staples like fish sauce, chili, and coconut milk. Rice is at the heart of it all—jasmine rice is common in central and southern Thailand, while sticky rice rules up north and in the northeast. Meals are usually shared. There’ll be a spread of dishes—maybe a curry, a stir-fry, a soup, and a salad—all eaten with rice in the middle. The idea is to balance flavors across the meal rather than in just one dish. You might get the rich creaminess of massaman curry alongside the sharp, spicy crunch of som tam (green papaya salad) and the comforting warmth of a clear broth like tom yum. Street food is a huge part of everyday life. Walk down any road and you’ll find vendors grilling skewers of marinated meat, tossing noodles in sizzling woks, or dishing up hot bowls of noodle soup. Grab a plate of pad Thai, a bag of fried chicken with sticky rice, or a steaming bowl of boat noodles from a floating market. And if you’ve got a sweet tooth, there’s mango sticky rice, coconut-based desserts, and crispy pancakes filled with sweet custard. Different regions have their own twist. In the north, dishes like khao soi—a curry noodle soup topped with crispy noodles—are popular, while the northeast (Isan) is known for grilled meats, sticky rice, and punchy salads. Down south, expect fiery curries with plenty of coconut milk and fresh seafood. Even breakfast can be exciting—sometimes just rice and an omelet, other times noodle soups or patongko (Thai donuts) with sweetened condensed milk. No matter where you go in Thailand, the food is vibrant, flavorful, and often made to be enjoyed with others. It’s comforting, lively, and always about that perfect mix of flavors.
