A smile, a “hello” and a “how are you” will make an immediate
positive impression. Thailand is known as the Land of Smiles, and
you will soon be saying “hello” and smiling with more people than
you can remember.
TOP TIP: When referring to the self in Thai, as in “I”, there is a
form for male and a form for female, just as there is with khrup and
ka. Men say “Phom”, and women say “Chan”, or “Di-chan” when
speaking very politely.
There are also forms where age is concerned. When speaking to
an elder, you should refer to that person as “Pii”. To get the
attention of an elder you would say, “Pii khrup/ka”. To get the
attention of a younger person you would say, “Nong khrup/ka”.
When referring to a child you can use the word “Luuk”, which
literally means child.

I read a book called Breathing in Colour, written by British author Clare Jay. In this book, a woman named Alida travels to India to find her missing daughter, Mia. The book also mentions synesthesia and lucid dreaming. I also talk about my experience with synesthesia.

Vocabulary:
synesthesia: when the senses are blended together
in my mind's eye: in my thoughts
lucid dreaming: when you realize it's a dream while you're dreaming
amnesia: when a person loses their memory
to get off on the wrong foot: to dislike each other at first
