Thailand the land of smile
Many people believe Thailand is called the “Land of smiles” because of the friendly, happy-go-luck and cheerful nature of its people. You can apparently smile at any Thai you pass by while walking on the street and that person will most likely smile back at you.
The Thai Smile
It seems that a smile is a unique characteristic of Thais. Thailand has been known as the “Land of Smiles” for a long time. We smile to other people easily even when we do not know them. We can smile even we do not have a reason to smile. One of our clients who works in a Finnish firm told me that her Finnish colleagues did not understand why Thais smile without a reason.
