Thailand is like sponge cake. It is nice but no depth to it like mud cake. I need to find a mud cake country.

 

Below the icing sugar what is there? Just sponge.

depth comes from you, not from your surroundings, a drunk who lies on his back in the gutter can still be in awe of the stars.

I'm surprised that people who say Thailand isn't any good actually stay for a rather long time

Now 83, I retired to Thailand in1993 having lived and worked in Europe, the Middle East, West Africa and East Asia. Thailand, while far from perfect, is a good place to live by comparison with most other countries. Friendly people, good food and warm weather.

As to your reference to a lack of 'soul', you will generally not find it unless you form a close relationship with a Thai person. Thais are not habitually demonstrative in that regard.

Sounds like you need to do something deep, have you tried Iran? 

This English couple are having a great time in Iran. It may be more to your liking.
