Thai people often ask, "Have you had rice yet?" as a way to show care. This question reflects their concern for your well-being, not a literal invitation to eat. Feel free to respond warmly and thank them for their kindness.
Additional Tips for Travelers
- Always remove your shoes before entering a home or temple.
- Keep calm in public; losing your temper is seen as disrespectful.
- Avoid touching sacred objects or religious icons unless given permission.
By following these tips, you'll demonstrate respect for Thai customs and create meaningful connections during your trip. A little preparation goes a long way in making your experience in Thailand unforgettable. Â
