For me on my first arrival in mae salong I was stunned at how simple life is
Because that’s the lifestyle I like. A life where grandmas still make traditional handcrafted
A place with thriving street markets
A place where eating doesn’t cost half a wage packet
A place with pure countryside not pooisoned by pesticides
A place where dogs and children can roam freely and play and learn life
A place with relatively lower crime rates than uk
A place where everyone smiles
A place where roads are bumpy and there’s 80 year old farmers vehicles still in operation
A place where time has transported it into the crazy chaotic pace of life in the west where very thing is governed by digital technology and high prices , higher stress rates and higher death rates
Crime through the roof and very little happiness until weekend for the big piss up
Everything about the UK and what it stands for I truly do hate
Everything that is thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia or Myanmar is everything what I love about life
So I really hope those people who think they can sort out a country that isn’t broke in the first place would just keep schtum and don’t ruin what it is we love about Thailand just because they’ve not got all the mod cons of london ffs 🤦🏻♂️
The whole countries infrastructure is being modernised
At the start of covid the only people allowed to enter were those employed by the government or contract workers for “infrastructure developments”
While we’ve been locked at home for over a year our railways tracks have all been modernised etc etc and I think it’s going to be the same for other countries especially those who only allowed government or contract workers entry
But for now you still have to quarantine even with vaccinations
I’m glad I didn’t fall into that trap and get vaccinated under false pretences to find out that vaccination stands for jackshit where money is involved.
The new hope is that by July 1st Thailand will be more open to tourists blah blah
