    Subject：RE：I'm coming to Thailand!!!
    Hey Johnny!
    Great news about your visit to Thailand.I shall roll out the red carpet for your arrival!I'm still having a great time here.It's difficult to work in this heat，but the people here are so kind，and life is generally quite relaxed，so it beats another rainy winter in Scotland.About your questions：
    1.Yes，you should learn a little bit of Thai if you can!It's not an easy language to speak or read，but a little effort will go a long way.Thais are really respectful people.When they greet you，they'll usually put both of their hands together，and bow their head a little bit.If anyone does it to you，it's very important that you do it back.
    2.Yes，the food is spicy!But it's so delicious.Thais use a lot of exotic ingredients like coconut，lemongrass，and lime leaves when they're cooking，so you get some really rich flavours.Actually，I think I never want to eat British food again after living here!Don't worry——you're going to love it，and it's cheap too!
    3.Yes，there are a few things to be aware of.Firstly，Thais look at the head as being sacred，so don't go around patting people on the head，not even kids.The head is the highest part of the body，and the feet are the lowest，so guess what？Don't do things with your feet.I know it sounds stupid，but just be careful that you're not pointing your feet at people or kicking them to get their attention or anything like that，and definitely do not put your feet up on tables or chairs——it will be considered very rude.
    I think it's very important to remember that Thais love their royal family too，so you should be respectful towards that.Once，my friend and I were visiting Bangkok，and he dropped a coin，I stamped on it to stop it rolling，and some people seemed quite angry，and we couldn't work out why.A hotel staff explained to us：Putting my foot on the coin was like stamping on a picture of the king!We told the hotel staff how sorry we were.I think it's really important to be aware of these things that might mean a lot to other people even though you would never think of them yourself
    Anyway，don't worry too much.Just be polite and respectful.You'll have a great time here.
    Looking forward to seeing you in the Land of Smiles!
