And the Thais are not very curious about foreign food. When I first started dating my Thai girlfriend, I took her out for Kashmiri food, then Italian, but she doesn't like it at all. Fortunately for me, she'd rather have ultra cheap and healthy Thai food, although she also likes Vietnamese and Japanese food.
Someday I imagine I'll end my love affair with coffee: it gives me a quick buzz but I get strung out on it pretty easily.
Another thing about stress - although there is plenty going on underneath the surface, I get smiled at by dozens of people a day, many of whom I don't even know.
