No one stares at you in this country. They are very used to seeing white people over there I guess. Not even in the upper north or close to the borders to Thailand.

Same counts for Singapur and the tourist stronghold Thailand. The Ladyboys and hookers do show you a lot of attention^^ but others are very used to tourists from all over the World.
Well it must just be something about me then, but what it could be I have no idea. All I know is I'm being stared at a lot.

Especially on the train today, I was just looking forward, and in the corner of my eye I noticed the lady on the seat next to me was just drilling her eyes at the side of my head. :L

Well I did have a taxi driver who thought I was Chinese, and still thought so even when I said I wasn't, so maybe they're just trying to figure me out lol
I'm fully white, but have black, thick hair and dark brown eyes and such, so who knows...
