Content: There is not much that you can do about it, and since Thailand is such an affordable country, these differences are so small that it’s better to pay it and move on. 8. How to overcome culture shock in Bangkok? I didn’t have too much culture shock because I had traveled to South East Asia previously (the Philippines). I knew a little bit about how they lived, and I made sure to ask friends who had been there previously for advice. Also, I did have to get used to the squat toilets, and the fact that not everywhere is as clean as I was used to (especially in restaurants). Those adjustments come with time, and now they don’t bother me anymore. 9. What do you like about Bangkok? Bangkok is one of the largest cities in the world, and just like other large cities, it has everything you could imagine.
