It was 2010, when I made smalls steps into the gigantic Asia to kill my travel bugs.
It was not the first time I was travelling outside India, but the first country I visited outside India in Asia is Thailand. A very convinient destination for Indians to travel. This country gives Visa on arrival at its immigration for 15 days.
But I realised, what impressions I had of Thailand was not enough.
This country is way developed than I had imagined in terms of tourism and infrastruction. High rise buildings, great night life, good fashion at cheap price, delicious thai food etc floods the immigration gate at the airport.
One of those days I decided to take a metro train with friends. I was surprised when my friend called it Sky Train. I had been in metro train in Calcutta but never I had been in a sky train. I was amazed. What is it anyway...!!
Later I realised it is an organised system of transport which runs on an elevated bridge. I was very impressed for the passengers commuting in this organised system. The ticketing, the signs, the dos and the donts and most of all the dedicated queues of passengers to enter the train.
Everything was calling for my attention and I was very wishful to have the same systematic medium to commute in India.
I am very glad to do this sky train in my travel in Thailand for the first time.
