There arer many amazing things to do and see in Thailand.

But what about the things that should not be done.

NOT meant negative just a bit of fun.

2 from me

1) DONT try Tom Yam soup for the 1st time at breakfast - it took all day to recover

2) DONT buy cheap, fake, trainers they make your feet STINK, or is it just me :shock:

When in a department store or a drug store (perhaps with the exception of Booths), if you don?t see it on the shelf, then DO NOT ask (in either Thai or English). What plays out will grate you more than the fact you cannot find what you are looking for.

Just walk out and then go elsewhere.

Don't buy a shirt sized M, because you really want an L or XL.

This man speaks the truth.

I've got a pretty decently small frame but still have trouble finding my size... I'm pretty sure that when they say 'medium' they mean 'youth medium'.

At least hold that t shirt up to yourself..... it'd be a real pity to waste 100B....
