of soap i've seen many of these
[222]
buildings named rhythm
[223]
around bangkok is that a group yeah
[227]
obviously also the region but it's the
[229]
legion second one
[231]
the second one yeah then i stayed in a
[233]
rhythm
[234]
uh down in ekamai one time before
[237]
yeah so in bangkok one thing you'll
[239]
notice is there's a lot of buildings
[242]
that are in different neighborhoods but
[243]
it's the same brand
[245]
the same name so this one rhythm
[248]
is really nice it's modern it's a big
[251]
building
[251]
do they have amenities inside here yeah
[253]
they have poo games and
[256]
loud so let's go in and take a look i'm
[258]
excited i didn't expect that this budget
[260]
would get us
[261]
in such a nice building
[280]
so what do we have here nan it's very
[283]
cool
[284]
south different swimming pool so it's a
[286]
rainy day
[287]
here in bangkok but when it is sunny
[290]
which it is a lot of the time they have
[291]
this beautiful
[293]
uh swimming pool that floats over this
[295]
main
[296]
street here in bangkok it can connect to
[299]
the
[300]
mrt ramanai okay so the neighborhood's
[303]
really nice this is uh

[329]
but she has notes
[331]
