BobbySix.com arrives in Bangkok

Bangkok. It is a word that makes my friend Ellen laugh every time she hears it. It is, essentially, the coming together of the words 'bang' and 'cock', after all. It is also a fantastic, sprawling city, drenched in both oppressive humidity and an infectious vibrancy that picks you up and throws you screaming into its heart.

Of course, we're here for the build up to the Smirnoff Nightlife Exchange Project, enjoying the culture, the nightlife (obvs), the food and the insanely spectacular firework displays (above) before heading off to Mumbai and then to Bangalore. Over the next few days here at BobbySix, there will be interviews with artists who are playing at the big events and all manner of other related stuff too. Maybe we'll even bore you with some of our holiday snaps. For instance, I took a photo of a sweet little cat today. He was just chillin' at the markets.

If you aren't fortunate enough to be going to one of these big events in various locations around the globe on Saturday, then you can get involved live and online, as different countries will be showcasing moments from the experience to create one globetrotting nightlife journey. Oh, and in keeping with the idea of a virtual experience, here's the view from my hotel room. Nice, huh?
