Finish the Sentence: Thailand

« Return to Finish the Sentence    « Return to Thailand

High season in Thailand is the backpacker’s Vegas, a non-stop party that caters to the budget traveller. Whether these people were on two week vacations or catching Thailand’s legendary parties in their round the world trips, there was little doubt that I had hit ground zero in the lonely planet of independent travel. Here are the travellers and locals I shared a moment or two with. Non-Thais have country codes.
