» Everyone and their mother are well aware that floods suck, period. But give it to the Thais who manage to make the most of the rains as shown in these pictures, which I hope will lighten up the heavy rain (with no intention to glamourise it).

Ambience-wise, it gives off an air of mystery while seamlessly blending traditional Thai and Moroccan styles.
