What Thai people do

Since the 1960s, more than four-fifths of both male and female villagers have left their home communities to work for a period of months or years in urban areas.

Thai people are educated in the family and in school to keep frustration inside. Instead of showing their anger toward a problem or situation, Thai people show "CHAI YEN", i.e. calm or patience.

An important thing in everyday life is "SANUK". Thai people love to have fun together. "SANUK" can represent many things - eat together, to be with friends and chat, to go out with friends.

Food takes an important part in Thai life. Thai people always talk about it, and about there next meal.


In Thailand, life is fast paced and you are always struggling to survive one way or another. Thai People wake up early. Thai streets are often never dark since there are always street shops that open 24-7.

Then most Thai People wake up early, as early as 4am to catch the bus to work or to school. So, Street Vendors never have a chance to close.

Everyone in Thailand has to add about an hour or two to their journey anywhere. The traffic in Bangkok is horrendous.
