Thailand - Foreward

What will precede (and not follow, due to the publishing-policy of blogspot) is basically to serve as a collection of memories, which will be near dear to me for a long time to come.

Thailand - I didn't know what to expect from this country. Some said it was like a well, "cleaner" India, others framed Bangkok as Bombay-ish, but all of that is rot. Thailand cannot be compared to India, in fact it puts my country, and retrospectively me, to shame. It is simply beautiful. The white sandy beaches and the coral islands of the south, littered with the most colourful of aquatic creatures, along with green outback and the beautiful "trek-able" forests of the north, and a brilliant mix of modern and ethnic cultures, with the friendliest of people, with the greatest of kings, plus a 'Keane' concert - Thailand rocked, and I need to/want to go there again.
