Bhutan

Ginggay and Penny have been talking about going to Bhutan for I don’t know what, but there’s this running joke that I’m going with them. I don’t even know where Bhutan is, but it seems to be in the middle of India and China.

Penny says I will have to fly Druk Air, the name of which already sends me shivers.

Druk Air (KB/DRK) / A319-100 / A5-RGF / 02-24-2012 / BKK

My questions are: Is there shopping in there? Is there wifi? What’s the food like? Is there a luxury hotel?
Penny and Ginggay laugh and I say, I’ll go if I can find a hotel I like. And guess what, I found one!
The question is, may wifi ba? Can we afford it?
So check this out, starting with the bedrooms. I wouldn’t mind…

The thing is, if it’s going to be this beautiful, I’m gonna want Jeroen, so I’m gonna ruin your all-hen party of soul-searching or whatever it is you want to do in Bhutan.

Besides, it looks like I won’t be able to afford it. So I’ll join you another time, where there’s shopping? XO

    I wonder how Her Royal Highness La Greta survived in Bhutan. She needs to write a travelogue. XD

    Lovely! Anything AMAN is always beautiful.. I mean we have Amanpulo, Indonesia has Amanjiwo (which is the greatest thing since ~I don’t know~ as my friend says). But yeah Bhutan would still be too exotic for me. Hehe!

    Bhutan has the distinction of having the happiest people in the world. Their government measures Gross National Happiness over Gross National Product.
