Bkk may not be for you because it is like a big city only dirtier and less organised. I guess temples are not your thing and bkk is filled with temples. There are some parks but they are few and far in between. But the food is awesome especially if you like spicy.

Skiing in Japan! That's awesome! That is definitely on my bucket list. Japan has some of the best snow and heaviest snowfall for skiing especially in Hokkaido!

Temples. Too many temples I went to. That's why I found it just so so. The red maple leaves also look so so.

Regret not taking skying. How much the entry fees for skying in hokkaido? My next bucket list also hokkaido.

Beside bkk I will also go chiang mai and chiang rai. Wanna rent scooter there travel from chiang mai to pai. Hope that will get adventure since got 762 curves to be conquered.

Any specific parts in BKK should I go to so that I can find cheap belts?

Either night market or even small shops will do...

Japan boring? I find Japan to be more interesting than BKK.

who ask u to go and visit the city area in Japan.

I rented a car in japan and drove through several of the outskirts area in Japan. I purposely drive through the mountains with roads twisting here and there when there was heavy snow as well despite several advice I received telling me not to do so.

chactuchak market....really close on 6pm during sunday?

im arriving bangkok at sunday around 3pm...after check in hotel plan to go chactuchak...still can make it?

About 30min to 45min from Airport to hotel, and from hotel you take BTS/MRT or Grab car to Chatuchak which take about 20~30 min. Plus the time you spend on check in your hotel. You basically don't have enough time to go Chatuchak. This is one reason I always flight to Bangkok on Friday or Saturday.
