Disneyland of Asia

Thailand is a reality trip after visiting the rest of SE Asia. Not only are there are western stores (Starbucks, McDonalds, KFC, 711, and more), but everything else is western as well: there are regular toilets (not to mention real toilet paper rather than spray guns), real napkins on the table, forks and spoons, consistent electricity, trucks on the road, pop music, real bread, and EVERYONE speaks english.

Coming from Laos, Chaing Mai or other major city in Thailand is as close to home as you can get without actually getting on a plane. But beware, if you are looking for authentic Asia, you're in the wrong place.
