Actually London and the East Anglia are rather agreeable just now, with everything opening up again, people ditching their face masks and covid vaccinations available to all; if only the weather were a bit better this summer. With Thailand's glory days as a tourist venue probably well and truly over, at least for the foreseeable future, it's nice to read others' thoughts on alternatives. Hopefully people will be wise enough to enjoy their vision of paradise without destroying what they seek.
