Thailand

It’s no surprise to me that a lot of backpackers treat Thailand as the hub for the whole of Southeast Asia. The landscape is incredible, the food is amazing (makes my mouth water just to recall the smell of Thai basil, ginger and garlic), and the people are some of the friendliest, most accepting bunch of smiley faces in the world.

This is one of the few countries that make me think I could come back here a hundred times without getting bored. It’s truly a paradise, and not just for backpackers.
