A vent and sorry for format
I’ve been traveling around Asia (mostly south) and have been very disturbed by Western foreigners. It’s great seeing tourism in my home country but the disrespect the locals receive is frustrating and heartbreaking. It’s disgusting how out of touch foreigners can be and act just because they’re not from there. Being somewhere new doesn’t give you a free pass to say or do whatever the hell you want.
You can’t speak Thai or Japanese? You should whip out google translate then and not get upset at a local for not understanding English. Better yet, get a book from the library and start learning the basics. Along with that, research the food and culture instead of showing disgust towards their everyday life. Crazy how entitled westerners can be. Just be mindful of where you are and respect the fact that you’re in someone else’s territory.
