Abaya,
Uh oh...I guess it should be in Tilted Traveling. Whoopsie. Sorry.
Thanks for all the info! I'm currently reading a couple of books on Thailand, but it is always great to talk with someone who has been there.
I'm really excited. My idea of visiting a new place isn't finding the finest hotels or touristy areas. I like going where the locals go.
I've visited Mexico and you are right, the beggars do throw you into an emotional upheaval. I'll have to think on that.
My favorite vacation EVER has been when I went to the Cinque Terre in Italy. Those are five remote villages on the coast in the Ligurian region. We packed everything we brought into backpacks and hiked daily from village to village. PARADISE Oh...but I digress....Maybe I should start another thread in Tilted Travel.
Thanks again,
abigail
