Giving directions to taxi drivers in Bkk seems to annoy them.

Never seen that happen in Thailand - only Pattaya.

Wouldn't that be disgusting in your culture - it would mine.

That would in the top 3 things of things not to do, along with giving them a map and making them wait for food. :D

Thai people generally welcome tourists and make allowances for us. The main grizzles I have found are:

* Burping after a meal

* Passing gas (Is it true Thai people don't fart?)

* Farangs who do not shower enough.

* Farangs who fail to show respect for their culture

Thai people not only fart, but it is a source of endless amusement to many. While they may not want to cut one in public, they will find it entertaining if you do, and farting ranks as a fail-safe source of fun among friends and family.

"Papa toot! Papa toot!" all over the house.
