When in Rome, do as the Romains’do!

If you should be elsewhere, live as they do there! This should be applied to any country that people visits or lives in including when you are in Canada. To visit a mosque, women have to put an abaya on, or at least have their hair and shoulders covered, from head to ankles and footwear removed.

Thailand’s temples, women only have to cover their shoulders and also footwear removed. This footwear removal is applied to everyone, just like any one who enter in My temple must do and is stripped naked.

Nice washing feet section for women only (men have their own) outside Abu Dhabi Grand Mosque which I posted my feet in previous post.

I’m back! What will I miss the most?

I will not miss the constant heat in Thailand! 30C with humidity feels like 40C. It was nice to swim anytime of the day or night and long walks on the beaches of Ko Samui but it is good to be back home after a month away!

I will certainly not miss Bangkok, the pollution, constant noise, always stuck in traffic at any time of the day and night, but thanks to sub ollie who made my Bangkok stay enjoyable. He told me the best way to avoid to be stuck in traffic is to use motorcycle taxis, which I was reluctant because many die from this deadly driving, they pop out from everywhere, between cars and sidewalks. It was an experience to hop on the motorcycle taxis and zigzagging in the traffic! And I survived it!

I was also back to Dubai and Abu Dhabi after my trip to Thailand but it was cold at 30 C without humidity, too cold to swim, it felt like 20C.  That pic was in Ko Samui…poor me, suffering of heat! 😉

Public humiliation

Of course the lady-boys have chosen the cutest man in the crowd to blindfold and tie him on a chair and pinched his nipples, it made the crowd laughed, and made his face turned so red.
