Curves. Thailand

This issue of Curves is an amazing four-stage tour through Thailand and it marks a milestone: this is the first Asian issue of Curves. And this Asia, southeast Asia, Thailand is so profoundly different from any other destination we’ve covered so far that our origins suddenly became blatantly obvious – most of all, to ourselves. We are foreign observers in a world, the messages of which we can merely interpret, the rhythms of which cause us to stumble and that, for precisely this reason, has drawn us under its spell. The disruptive element of travel emerged on our tour of Thailand more forcefully than ever before. All preconceptions are shattered, all expectations questioned or exceeded. New things have to be experienced and absorbed. This reality forces itself upon you in a colourful, challenging and ecstatic rush. There is no comfortable or soft alternative.
