GOLD SHOP Bangkok, Thailand

GOLD SHOP   
Bangkok, Thailand

Buying "gold" in Bangkok may seem overwhelming because of the large quantity of Gold Shops selling tons of gold, most of which is about 22-23K despite proclamations of 24K (Pure Gold) as there is no such thing.... cheaply produced. Bullion is 999.99% at best while 24K would have to be 100%.

The trick to buying gold is to pick the right gold shop and that is easily done by seeing which shop has the most Thais buying gold within. I.e., in this shop there is only one Western person (right foreground) buying gold, the rest are Thais and there are many. All indicative of an honest shop the locals trust when they store wealth in gold.

My Favorite Tattoo Shop in the World- Copenhagen

My Favorite Tattoo Shop in the World
Copenhagen, Denmark

Ship rigging can be seen at the main mast of a sailing ship whose hull cannot be seen as it sits in the canal, conveniently close to the tattoo shop. The interesting combination of the parts of this photo is why I call this my favorite tattoo shop even though I sport none myself. One can imagine the scene over 100 + years ago with sailors partying and drinking along the canal's shops and drinking establishments.
