Short Travel Stories - Learn English with Camille, Ping-Pong in Thailand isn’t what we thought

Ping-Pong in Thailand isn't what we thought

We spent a week in Thailand, a few days in Bangkok and a few days on the island Ko Sumet. We even rode an elephant, and went to a floating market. Both unforgettable experiences, unique to the country. Thailand is where we really fell in love with Thai tea and Thai food. Oh my goodness, I'm even dreaming of it now! One evening we were walking through an outdoor Thai market around 9pm in the evening. There were so many different vendors, some selling souvenirs, others selling clothes, DVD's—you name it, you could find it! There was a mix of both locals and tourists. There were several karaoke clubs and bars and restaurants along the strip too. One guy approached our friend Josh and asked if he wanted to play ping-pong. Josh, 18 at the time and game to do anything was like, “Yes, I love ping-pong!” So the guy handed him a brochure. Josh grew wide-eyed. He was looking at naked women and this was NOT the ping-pong he wanted to play. His cheeks grew red and he quickly carried on, shocked by what had just happened. “Ping-pong in Thailand is definitely not the same as the ping-pong that I know in Canada!” he said. We all had a good laugh and still carry that memory with us to this day.

Ping-Pong in Thailand isn’t what we thought Pingpong in Thailand ist nicht das, was wir dachten El ping-pong en Tailandia no es lo que pensábamos Le ping-pong en Thaïlande n'est pas ce que l'on croyait Il ping-pong in Thailandia non è come pensavamo タイの卓球は思っていたのと違う 태국의 탁구는 우리가 생각했던 것과 다릅니다. Ping-pongas Tailande nėra tai, ką manėme Ping-pong w Tajlandii nie jest taki, jak myśleliśmy O pingue-pongue na Tailândia não é o que pensávamos Пинг-понг в Таиланде - это не то, что мы думали Tayland'da masa tenisi düşündüğümüz gibi değilmiş Пінг-понг в Таїланді - це не те, що ми думали 泰国的乒乓球不是我们想象的那样 泰國的乒乓球不是我們想像的那樣
