Often cited as the quintessential travel destination for backpackers and hedonistic party goers, Thailand has enjoyed over three decades of accolades and rave reviews. In fact, in New Delhi in April 2014, Travel & Leisure magazine voted Thailand as the best country destination for travellers, for the third consecutive year in a row. 445km of palm fringed coastline, a diverse and fascinating culture, and food and scenery like nowhere else on earth, doesn't after all, just enchant millions of tourists every year into returning to Thailand. Rather, whether it is in beach side reggae bars, or by the pool sides of sybaritic five star hotel resorts, Thailand brings people together and makes people feel more like they have finally come home, rather than just flown somewhere thousands of miles away. However, beneath its tropical wonderland like veneer, Thailand hides a very sinister secret. Literally hundreds of holidaymakers and Thailand expatriates are after all, murdered in the country each year. And the only reason that people aren't already aware of the amount of westerners being beaten, and flung from high rise apartment balconies in Thailand, is because Thai authorities move promptly after every such case, to attribute such incidents to mysterious series of accidents and suicides. The following book will therefore go further than most other guide books and blogs '10 tips for staying safe in Thailand, ' and expose not only how dark and belligerent the country can be at times, but also how you can ensure your own safety when abroad in the so called Land of Smiles.
Hi, I'm Andrew, full time hotel cook, and part time author of two (so far) what you might call 'unconventional' travel and relocation guides. One I have based on my own experiences relocating to Malta, and in my latest book 'How Not To Get Murdered In Thailand, ' I attempt to expose not often talked about perils associated with travelling short or long term in the so called land of smiles. Having been on the road for five years, working and travelling in places like Thailand, New Zealand, Egypt, and Morocco, I have a real passion for travelling and immersing myself in different places and cultures. What I have tried to break from in my books though, is a standard in which authors only ever attempt to report back from places they have lived and visited, as if everywhere in the world is faultless and paradisical. Whereas then, I absolutely love living in the Baroque masterpiece that is Valletta in Malta, I have instead of filling my book on the country with platitudes, tried to highlight minor and more significant annoyances regarding living full time on the Maltese archipelago. Similarly, since 2009, I have been a frequent visitor to Thailand, and although the country and the people are in every respect fantastic, the country does harbour significant danger for some people. All that said, my real passion lies with writing fiction, and for the next six months I will be working on my science/political fiction book 'Stegosaur.' Happy Reading!
