If there is one word to describe your writing, it is : lyrical.

This piece is a breathless paean to your love affair with a vibrant land. The line between your enthusiasm and the welcoming warmth of a new place blurs and leaves the reader wanting more: of your writing and if the land in its varied hues!

Such a lovely account of your time in Thailand. I view it from your lens now. And it's so refreshing and different from our stereotyped image of the country.

What a rounded travel-piece. I loved the way you told about the city sprinkling it with personal anecdotes. Made it so personal and close -as if we were all traveling together.
