This is definitely a country that's growing on me! Once you leave Bangkok and you learn to think like a Thai, you realize the many facets of the Thai people, their humour and their spirituality. Like in Myanmar, Buddhism is part of the daily life but even more so of all the Asian countries, the deep reverence to their King.
