What really lies above and beyond? Do we really know what\u2019s happening around us? Do we really know the people we meet? These questions constantly poked me in the belly when all of a sudden I realized the flight had taken off. That\u2019s right. It was time to have that much awaited vacay! I don\u2019t know whether it was the anxiety or just me being myself but I swear we landed pretty soon. A mere 4 and a half hour journey felt like a mini nap.<\/em><\/p>\n

I had heard all different kinds of things about Thai people apart from being culturally rich, living in a luxe paradise as far as the eyes could see. What I couldn\u2019t believe was the fact that there are so many lies that you hear only to be discovered later. Despite getting all kinds of misleading information about Thailand, I decided it was time. Time to let go and travel.<\/p>\n

As soon as my flight landed in Bangkok, it was time to rush to the Don Mueang International Airport, where another flight to my dream destination was waiting. I requested the people at the Visa-on-arrival desk to make it faster as I had another flight to catch and guess what they replied, \u2018Don\u2019t worry. You\u2019ll get your flight.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018You..uh you goin\u2019 to Krabi?\u2019
\nI smiled back and nodded.
\nShe spoke again, \u2018You..Indian?\u2019
\nThis time, a \u2018yes\u2019 fell out of my mouth, nothing less than a whisper.<\/p>\n

Then started a conversation that took almost an hour to finish. Her name was Lawan. There was certain warmth with which she spoke. I tried to guess her age and was again sadly proven wrong. She was a mother of two kids and was going back home to meet them from Bangkok to Krabi. One thing led to another and before we knew it felt like we had a connection. She then realized that she was to board the same flight as I and due to some confusion, she had to buy a pass for the next flight too. Three hours spent with Lawan made a few things clear to me as far as some of the myths and truths about Thai folk are concerned that many of us keep coming across every now and then.<\/p>\n
