She has no desire to go TPAC, quite correctly citing that Asia is a more advanced level of travel than she can handle. She fairly consistently has to remind me that she is not as well-traveled as I, and I counter with my admission that I'm wet behind the ears compared to most of Teh Box.

I can't recommend Thailand enough (unless it's during the annual coup attempt). Very easy to get around, English is a good neutral language, and everything is dirt cheap. And it's beautiful.

Asia's not that difficult at all if you stick to major tourist-oriented countries, like Japan, Singapore, Thailand (although I've never been there), Malaysia (somewhat), and Taiwan.

With a tolerance that low, I can see Thai elephant smell making her pass out and/or puke.
If you want fun, climb the 1,272 step* path up the side of a mountain in the "footprint of Buddha" at Wat Tham Sua in 98 degree heat with 95% humidity with only 12 oz. of water. I think I lost about 10 lbs doing that. *Thai style steps. Not your average 18" guys, these are carved into the side of the mountain and are not gentle. |

I was a bit intimidated by going to Japan at first, what with the language and cultural barriers, but having been there it's not that bad. In the populated tourist areas you'll find some English signs and can get around fine enough.
I'd like to go back to Asia, preferable HK. I'd have to get a tour guide from rkkwan for that one. :-: |

The cities are, by and large, not all that clean or attractive; the beaches are, by and large, not all that spectacular; the natives' smiles are, by and large, merely a con act; many of the (younger) tourists are, by and large, trying to re-live their college spring break days; many of the (older male) tourists are, by and large, trying to re-live their college spring break days (but with women of a different ethnic group); the place is not, by and large, all that cheap; etc etc etc. |
