In this episode of "Sleepless in Singapore," I recount some experiences and mishaps from a Southeast Asia trip with my friend Hatim, including an accidental upgrade to super VIP on a ferry, a culinary adventure with chicken feet, an insightful train journey to Bangkok, a scooter incident with the police in Chiang Mai, and a memorable two-day boat trip down the Mekong River to Luang Prabang, all intertwined with cultural insights, local interactions, and the challenges and delights of travel.
