It started to lag a little and I was going to give it four stars, but I really liked it towards the end when he went on the meditation retreat for 3 days, talked about MSF pulling out (and why), heroin use and treatment.

I related to some of Delisle's experiences as I visited Thailand around 2013 and I saw some similar cultural quirks such as locals bundling up when it got below like 75 degrees, motorbikes, monks, interesting shops, haggling and favorable exchange rates.
