Thailand -- known as "The Land of Smiles" and you'll immediately notice the friendliness -- has excellent infrastructure for tourism and also has countless mom-and-pop businesses that conveniently offer whatever you need. Add to this the history of ancient kingdoms, the astonishing temples, and interesting tribal cultures... Thailand would be a great destination even if it didn't have beautiful beaches and coral reefs. Another great reason to visit Thailand is to volunteer at the Elephant Nature Park-- more about that, next week.
