20 Things I Miss from Thailand

​

Still having withdrawal from the coolest place ever...

 

1. Placing my hands together and bowing was normal (still is normal for them).

​

2. While the cultural barrier was so huge, it made me appreciate world differences that much more.

​

3. You do not hail taxis, they hail you. Literally, a taxi driver will pull over and ask if you need a ride if you are just leisurely walking on the sidewalk.

​

4. Snacks with another language on them and feeling super adventurous when I try something thinking it's new, even if it is just a piece of chocolate.

​

5. Taking my shoes off when walking into stores.

​

6. Ocean water = bath water.

​

7. Real Pad Thai (with chicken, obviously no seafood).

​

8. Curry.

​

9. Not having to "work on my tan" because then second I walk outside, it happens. 

​

10. Real Pad Thai (seriously, that good).

​

11. Amazing views of even the simplest of scenery.

​

12. Snorkeling in open waters.

​

13. Cute monkeys.

​

14. Not having Wifi (seriously, try it one day. You will feel so free and not attached to the stupid media world. You're phone does NOT equal your life).

​

15. Having everyone sweat just as much as I do on a regular basis (and being proud of it).

​

16. Feeling super rich when not one meal is more than $3 (or 150 baht).

​

17. Baht, miss you.

​

18. Having use of my fake Ray Bans.

​

19. Pad Thai

​

20. Not having a care in the world.

 

If I could make it back to this incredible place at least one more time in my life, I would be extremely lucky.
