[Natta Lmo]

if u havent been here, would u consider going here in the future?

if u have been here what did u do while here? did u go to tourist spots? find places where not so many tourists? what time did u go here? what were ur experiences?

[shadowmouse]

I haven't been. Unfortunately, I don't handle hot and humid very well, and I have a morbid fear of smiling women who might own ducks. Other than that, if my stomach ever recovers enough that it can handle spicy food again, I'd love to visit just to enjoy the food and experience a new place.

[Citizen T]

I was born there

Eventually. Got a few other countries and cities to knock off the list first.

vietnam? ^^

[Ayirasi]

Born there and visit my grandma in Chiang Mai at least once a year. Outside of wandering the city for Songkhran and Loi Krathong, I don't really do anything touristy.

[TEHPALLYTANK]

Nope, and I don't ever plan to go. I don't like travel, and I'm rather paranoid about picking up infections in foreign countries (I chose to stay home rather than visit relatives in London just a few months ago).

[Dwarfhamster]

vietnam? ^^

Eventually as well. Should go sooner rather than later but ... we'll see.

[Little Sparkie]

Yeah, it's the home country of my family.

[Doctor Amadeus]

Nope. Have almost zero Interest in Asia mostly however if there was anywhere in Asia I would like to Visit it's China, but I don't speak Chinese. I think Japan would be maybe ok Tokyo looks stunning.

I recently spend a month in and around Bangkok, mostly training Muay Thai. But I went to see fights, I went on a river trip, few temples, markets, night markets etc.

[shadowmouse]

Uh, what?

Ducks! I have a morbid fear of smiling (Thai) women who might own ducks!

Removing the devious dicks of wandering husbands is becoming almost as common in Thailand as carving up coconuts. The slashing wives' habit is euphemistically referred to as "tat lieng pet" (feeding the duck) due to an incident in which the offending organ was tossed into a yard where a passing duck ate it.

Bangkok surgeons are challenged with about 60 penile attachment operations per year, notes the Mirror.

I've been to Thailand before. In fact I reckon I was there the year after Thailand had been struck by a tsunami, and we did visit some of the affected areas. The old man's been there since and says it has become significantly more touristy since I visited, so it's pretty unlikely that I'd want to go back, but I enjoyed my time last I was there.

[Strawberry]

Spent about 8 weeks total in Thailand. Not just tourist places, but drove around southern Thailand a lot.

I love the place. I was in Greece this year and Thailand is way better.
I love Patong. It doesn't have the best reputation, but it's large enough to spend a month in it and still not do everything you want. It has something for everyone. It's also easy to find tours to different islands since it's the main tourist area in Phuket.
But I think the nicest places in Thailand are those outside tourist areas. Places no tourist probably has never seen. Like, Khlong Din Daeng reservoir. Khao Luang was awesome.

The only downside is that Thailand is far from Europe. It's not a 10-day vacation IMO. I wouldn't go to Thailand and spend less than 2 weeks there.

Lol! That would only be a problem if you are unfaithful. And do they cane whip criminals there? Or am I thinking of another country in that area?

[ParanoiD84]

Nope never, i have been wanting to see Vietnam though.

[Low Hanging Fruit]

Once on business. Didn't get to do much besides work and eat. I will say the food was great. Only thing I disliked was the humidity and rain. Just to much but I can't blame the country for that. Just be prepared to be wet most the time.

[Deathknightish]

When would you recommend going if you an't handle humidity?

I was in Tokyo between 5th and 19th of september, and the first week was awful because of how humid it was, I could barely live with it, and I hear it's nothing compared to how it is in Thailand.

[Boricha]

Never been, not sure what I'd do if I went, but I'd be down to go.

Caning is Singapore and Malaysia.

Don't underestimate the dangers of rumor and jealousy. I'm still stayin' clear of smiling women who might have ducks (and short tempers)!
