Hi guys, I'm moving next week 😬 Does anyone know the Boeung Salang area? I know everyone is telling me to live in Russian Market because I'm white but I've found the Crystal Condominium building which I love.

I'm an English Tutor so I'll be having classes in BK2 and near Russian Market. I also work from home.

Any advice is most welcome.

Thanks!

Why would you ask for advice? It seems you have found what you wanted.

Russian Market btw is not because you're white but because it is a great place, a village in a big city, many small shops, small but excellent restaurants, bakeries, and of course the market.
It's a great place to be, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

Thanks Joe, it sounds lovely. Do you know how far Boeung Salang is? Everyone tells me it's a bit far but it seems very close to Russian Market.

Thanks

If it's far or not depends on your personal reflection.

It's not so far, being like 3-4 km from TTP (Russian market). But when traveling it might take you 30 minutes or more to get there, due to heavy and erratic traffic .

Hope this helps.
