One can use their brain but if one does not know the cultures rules and conduct, off course one will offend/screw up. You are attention seeking. If you don't know the countries rules and customs what good is POLITE? POLITE may be ok for wester standards but in Thailand will get you in big trouble... Your comment was without thought

Actually that was one of the biggest moments this year so far. I had my birthday on naka bucha day and we went to the temple. I’ve never done that before. I knew that i have to take off my shoes. One of the monks seen me struggle getting out of my shoes ( I’m in a wheelchair and have special shoes that i need to even pass the entrance. I didn’t even expect him to talk to me ( in English!) but after he seen me even trying he said "buddha understand". This will be unforgettable for me. A really special moment for a farang who is only a guest in the country

In the 12 years I have lived here this is arguably one of the finest videos I've seen that explains the basics of Thai culture. There are many other things that could have been discussed, but this video hits all the big ones and explained them very well. Although I will say I'm surprised you did not talk about the practice of wai. Perhaps it is because if you screw it up, and most foreigners do, Thais will usually see it as cute and funny, but not offensive.

When I was in Koh Samui in 2004, I tried to use a bum-gun for the first time in my bungalow but I missed my bum and ended up spraying the ceiling. I was guilty of flushing toilet paper in Thailand; I made sure I flushed them in smaller pieces than what I would flush in the states. Thank God, I never clogged any toilets there! Nice video guys! Thumbs Up.

Sawasdee krap! Khob khun mak krap for the video. I have been going to Thailand since 1999 for Muay Thai. My wife and I are bring a couple of friends with us and the guy is rather difficult at times. Im trying to prepare him for this trip by teaching him cultural norms and whats not to be done. This video will help him realize its not just my idea, but the truth. Always worried about a short temper or over haggling with people. I will probably do most of it as he doesnt speak any Thai, however there will be times he will do his own.... Anyways thanks again! heading over in April /2019 for 3 weeks vacation then they will leave and I will go and train some more muay thai! Khob khun krap! jing jing!! La gon

I love the "bum gun" in Thailand :) also one day we were taking a taxi and my thai girlfriend knew the direction we are going is completely wrong....but she did not wanted to offend the driver because he was too old :) I love Thailand. Keep the videos coming, like cold ice Leo beers :)

We who lived in US most or all lur life are used to toilwt paper amd flushing them. Lol.
