Thai Views | Wat Khao Takiap: Though I have been living in the Asia for about 8 years and with a majority of Asian nations being predominantly Buddhist, I have never truly looked into the practice. Sure, I’m vaguely familiar with the meditation and enlightenment aspect of it but that has been the limits of my knowledge. Recently I have decided to take a deeper look at the practice and in turn a deeper look into myself.

At the core of Buddhism are The four Noble Truths, the first of which being that in life there is suffering. However the teachings guides you through the reasons for suffering and how to end suffering. One major cause to human suffering is our desire, craving such things as material goods and then leading to our attachment to them. With this identified one can choose to crave less and understand that the only thing permanent in life is impermanence. All that we have now will not last forever so why get attached to them when they will only cause us suffering when they are gone. I’m not talking on a superficial level that is only thought about in times of crisis but on a day to day basis.

Looking at this monk walking on the beach at the crack of dawn in only a robe and without shoes, I get it now. I don’t think I could be as disciplined as this but I got to start somewhere.

"It was advertised for 300+THB and I booked. When I arrived, the reception told me to pay the difference to make it 500THB. There was another couple at the same time with same issue. The reception talked to owner on speaker phone in Thai and we overheard the owner telling her to lie to us about the details and also refused to refund me. I called Hotels.com to complain and I was told to pay the difference and the company will refund me. Let’s see if this is so. Good place but dishonest and...

"Very nice property, good service."

Hyatt Regency Hua Hin

10/10 Excellent

"This trip was our tenth vacation at the Hyatt Regency hotel. We appreciated our request for the location of the hotel room. The room cleaning was of a good standard and timely. The pool restaurant offered quality snacks during the day. The quality, taste and cleanliness were excellent. The pool staff was active, helpful and very polite. Tew and Chan managed the daily pool exercise very well and playfully with humor. The guardforce's new uniforms were very positive. They also communicated with the vacationers in a friendly manner. The breakfast was great and of high quality. The oatmeal was especially tasty. If there was anything to improve, I would say I missed the blue cheeses, brie: and camembert cheeses that were available before. We will come again next spring."
