The Songkran Holiday is one of the few times of the year, the majority of Thai people can let loose and be happy.
Many revelers from Isaan work outside of Isaan and Songkran may be the only time of the year they can get back home to see their friends and families.
It is no secret the majority of Thai’s have hard lives, struggling just to make ends meet.
Songkran allows a temporary release of all the stress and strain from the following year, where people can celebrate and be happy.
This time of the year is a good time to reflect on the many Thai people you crossed paths with, including street food vendors, taxi drivers and other’s that make your stay in Thailand easier.
It is great for people have this time of the year to enjoy themselves.
Enjoy yourself responsibly and don’t cause any conflict for Thai people.
Happy Songkran!
