I agree with that. Some of the stuff in the canals here look more like school projects to give the kids something to do rather than actual talented artists. Spray paint isn't easy to find here either.

I have heard about these cloud bases but never experienced them. My shoes have pretty poor bases on them and my feet hurt often because of this. I don't believe that this makes it worth spending 5x as

They know we don't like to go to this but there is some sort of anger on the part of the Thai teachers because they MUST go. We are only encouraged to.

I may have mentioned this is posts in the past that were about bowling but the last bowling alley that Chiang Mai, Thailand had shut down about 5 years ago. I went to it during its last days and they had

nice macro photos with the water dew drops. Which of the items in the pics are sitaw? Here in Thailand "sadaw" is a stinky bean that grows high in the trees.

That is odd to target foreigners like this. Not related to what you are saying but I was once at a live music something or other in Thailand that got raided by the police. They were pee testing everyone

I've heard about this tactic. It makes for better water preservations and for larger plants it restricts how much the roots can grow and makes the plant stay where you want it to. I have no garden, so

I live on the opposite side of downtown but am very familiar with that very strange road with the canal going down the middle. it seems that most of the switchbacks are just for motorbikes to cross because

it's just them being stubborn. I don't think the girl wants exclusive citizenship, she wants additional citizenship. I know a lot of people that would like to have a Thai passport, but not if it all of

Maybe this is just the tourism nature running its course. I get pissed off every time I am there and the only people that seem to be enjoying themselves are the sex tourists who just sit at the girly bar

I would be more concerned about drunk people coming by and just destroying them or vandalizing them in some way. If you think about it, it would be really difficult to steal what is essentially a stone

I don't really have any sort of brand that I stick with regularly. I used to like New Balance because they have wide sizes for giant feet like mine but this brand is pretty tough to get in Thailand. I

well they are really cute. I had a couple of hamsters when I was around 10 years old but never a guinea pig.

One of the major downsides about being an expat in South East Asia (or i suppose anywhere) is that in order for my family to do this it takes days and thousands of dollars just for us to get there. I'm

We have a street art area here along one of the canals but honestly, very little of it is up to this standard. I feel the same way you do about people just spraying some letters on the side of the road.

A festival I hate... haha! It made me immediately think about this thing us teachers are compelled,but not obligated to attend that is called "sport day" where a mini olympics is set up for the

I don't really understand most of what these charts represent but I am trying to learn. you are helpful with this.

ah yes, that is a very common con. I would say don't ride in them ever again but if you do make sure to say "no stops!" before you leave. A lot of the time the driver will refuse to take you

the tourists usually fall for the trap and pay many times what it actually costs to use a taxi because they don't know any better. They will usually try to justify it by saying "well it is still a

They can't just come along and tell people that they can't make money the same way that they have been making money for their entire lives. If they truly want to phase it out, the government is going to
