This begpacker pitched up outside the Hyatt Regency hotel on Sukhumvit Road in Bangkok.


He laid out a selection of bracelets and necklaces on the ground along with a sign that read ''I travel the world by selling bracelets, would you like to support me''. He was partly targeting wealthy holidaymakers and tourists - Sukhumvit Road is super busy and he was outside a five star hotel.

However, he had a second sign also written in Thai, so he was hoping for donations from locals, too. When questioned about his begpacking he said he does it to raise money for ''hostels and food''.

He also knew what he was doing was wrong because he clearly says he is worried about immigration. He also said he had been begpacking in Vietnam and Malaysia before this but Bangkok was much stricter. His next stop is Manila, in the Philippines.
