I never made it out to Asia. Where did you live in Thailand? Did you have a chance to explore other nearby countries?
We lived in Bangkok, but also spent time in Tak province. It's my wife's home province and she owns land there. Tak is on the border with Myanmar, so we've been there. We also traveled to Japan and Vietnam as well as extensively in Thailand. I would have loved to go to Cambodia, but my wife had no interest. I've also been to Singapore a long time ago (1999), I'm sure it's changed dramatically since.
I felt that I wasn't ready for Asia. I could easily spend a year there and its just not what I need right now.
Would love to visit those places you mentioned. Yeah I think all of those countries must have changed a lot over the last decade or so. Everyone says Myanmar is the best place to go now because it is changing very rapidly
