More Asian Travel Tips

We continue our brief introduction to Asia. This is just an intro, we will get more in depth later. As always, leave questions if you got any!

Thailand -

Thailand is a great country to visit. Fun and friendly. For the most part that is. Of course, there may always be problems.

Thais are very religious (generally Buddhist) and are very loyal to their king. You will often see pictures of him around cities, in restaurants. etc. Never criticize or make fun of the king. Besides being rude, it can get you in real trouble. Be polite at all times and you should have no problems.

Also, it's not polite to touch people on the head, and don't point at things (or people) with your foot.

Malaysia -

As Malaysia is warm, it's best to bring light, cool clothing. There are many food stands selling the local food, teas, pancakes...try them! They are good, and you will not regret it. Go local! :)

Malaysia has many religions, and there are many Christian churches, Muslim Mosques, and Buddhist and Hindu temples. Explore Malaysia with an open mind.
