things Thai

After living in Thailand a few months, i have noticed some things very charecteristic for Thailand, for example that

• you are allowed to do u-turns on the highway

• the traffic lights are more like decorations; you are not supposed to stop when the light turns red

• you will meet people driving in the wrong lane, in the opposite direction, even on the highway

• you must go to the chef in the kitchen and explain very clearly what you want to eat, because the waitress doesnt understand your order

• the police have traffic controls only when they run out of money

• you can by ice cream with sweet corn

• you wear a yellow sweater on mondays beceause the king told you to do so

• you see signs saying "please turn off the engine when you have parked your car" (global warming isn´t a big issue in Thailand)

• you will have the main courses spiced up with sugar instead of salt…

…and i love it!
