December 29, 201015 yr Hey gotlost, sorry I know it's off topic, but I read your Winston quote, he had a way with words, didn't he? My favorite quote of his was said at a by-election rally when a woman shouted out to him, "If you were my husband, I would poison your tea"....... To which Winston replied, "Madam, if you were my wife, I'd drink it"
December 29, 201015 yr Not because of TAT. Many countries have more and more to offer. Thailand is still on the list. Just not that high up anymore.
December 30, 201015 yr I never go anywhere where my dollar doesn't go far. that means forget about europe or latin america.
December 30, 201015 yr I never go anywhere where my dollar doesn't go far. that means forget about europe or latin america. Europe I understand, but the dollar still has some power in parts of Latin America.
December 30, 201015 yr Your having a laugh aren't you! Thailand, not on the list, unbelievable. A small beer costs 3 dollars, a nice meal will set you back 10 dollars, the people are the most honest (esp the women). There is always a happy smile from the travel agents as they take your money, but forgot to tell you that you might get hassled along the way, which is always nice.The tuk tuks and the taxis never try and rip you off. The logic is far superior in Thailand then any where else. It's clean with great roads and drivers, health and safety standards are high, and the best of all you get to meet the most helpful police in the world when your in need. Why, Why, why, why, is Thailand not on the list. Saying that. I love Thailand just the way it is. And that's why I chose to live here. It's not perfect, but nowhere is.
December 30, 201015 yr Not only is Thailand not on the list, there is no destination in South East Asia on the list. Oh well. Edited December 30, 201015 yr by WinnieTheKhwai
December 30, 201015 yr Me: Quick honey pack your bags we're going for a romantic getaway in an exotic destination!!! Her: OMG that's fantastic!! Where? Bali? Tahiti? Barbados? Me: No dear Albania. it will be a trip back to 1915 with real live goats and oxcarts. Her: I want a divorce. Me: Ok, how about Bulgaria, voted the most corrupt nation in Europe. Her: get out and don't come back. Sorry. Although Thailand didn't make the list, I'm not the least bit interested in visitng Albania or Bulgaria. I can do without the turnip and parsnip stew. Norway? Yes the fjords are beautiful, but Norway slaughters whales and until it stops I do not purchase anything Norwegian.
