ประเทศไทย

In the Land of Smiles, culture is rooted in sanuk (joy), sabai (ease), and a strong sense of community. Daily life echoes this vibrant yet steady rhythm: Monks in saffron robes shuffle past alms givers at dawn, shopkeepers banter with neighbours, and drivers sit patiently even in the most congested traffic.

It’s a pulse shaped by Buddhism and what almost seems like genetically gifted good humour – and for travellers, offers a lesson in living focused on the present, whilst staying conscious of more than the self.
