Our Very First Bangkok Tweetup for Charity!

tweetup1

You’re invited to the first BKK Tweetup for Charity! We’ll share dinner & drinks and meet interesting people from around Bangkok. A portion of proceeds will be donated to our BKK Urban Garden Project!

The venue is a great little wine bar on Ratchawithi Soi 2, a 15 minute walk from the Victory Monument BTS station. Exit 3 or 4 on the BTS and take the skywalk towards the monument. When it forks go right, and go down the steps in front of the Fashion Mall (across from Center One). Follow the street to Soi 2 and walk down the soi until you see the restaurant on the left side.
