- The cockroaches here are bigger than in New Jersey
- Thai Cicadas chirp more loudly than in New Jersey
- Everyone gets around on scooters -- without helmets -- including moms with babies strapped on their backs and shoppers bringing their flat screen TVs home from the store
- Tropical rain rain is even heavier than imagined and resembles buckets full of water being dumped from the sky
- Street food is sold everywhere - with food stands in every alley and on every country road
- Ornate wats (temples) are everywhere - in every country town and many in each city
- Animism is alive and well, and superstition still guides some people’s lives
- Buddhist monks carry iPhones
- Lane lines on roads are more of a suggestion than a rule. This applies to both the lines between lanes going in the same direction and between lanes going in opposite directions.
- Happy hour by the pool includes free massages (now THAT’s happy hour!)
