That wraps up another trip to Thailand
That wraps up another trip in Thailand 🇹🇭
And somehow… every single time I come back, I leave with something new.
Parts of it feel like home now. But this time… I went deeper.
I really wanted to understand the relationship between egs 🌶️ and culture here, beyond what you see on the surface.
So this trip, I…
✨ Visited x- worker organizations to better understand the realities behind the industry
✨ Sat down with sexual healthcare providers — in clinics for everyone, and also spaces specifically for women and for men
✨ Had conversations with x- workers about their experiences, their work, and their perspectives
✨ Explored er0t!k art and spaces that reflect Thailand’s more subtle, layered seggsual culture
✨ And spent time simply observing…with a more critical, but still open lens.
Things I’ll miss…
✨ My Muay Thai trainers 🫠
Same guys for the past 4 years, still greeting me with the biggest smiles, laughs, and zero mercy in training.
✨ Pad See Ew & Khao Soi from Anusarn Market in Chiang Mai
(I swear I think about it year-round.)
✨ All the old and new furry friends 🐕🐘
Thailand has a way of making you fall in love with animals everywhere you go.
✨ Our go-to massage spot
They let me practice my Thai, and they adore Gab.
He shows up with a full fruit buffet mid-massage and tries to speak Thai with them — it’s become a whole thing 😂
✨ The VIP cinema experience 🫠
Once you do it, regular movies just don’t hit the same.
✨ Fruit… everywhere 🍉
No matter where you are, someone is ready to cut you the freshest fruit you’ve ever had.
✨ The healthcare 🏥
From dental cleanings to dermatology to blood work…
Accessible, efficient, and honestly better than what I’m used to back home.
✨ The traditions woven into everyday life
Temples, rituals, respect, the slower rhythms…
There’s something really grounding about how deeply culture and tradition are still felt here.
✨ The people. Locals and travelers alike — so open, kind, and easy to connect with.
And much more! (I’ve reached my limit on this post 😅)
Kapung-Ka for everything! 🙏 #thailand #travelthailand #thaitravels #bangkok #bangkoktravels
