Okay, listen up. If you’re a guy who likes guys and you’ve ever fantasized about getting drenched — no, not in that way, you dirty mind, I’m talking about water — then you’ve probably considered going to Thailand for Songkran. And why not? It’s the perfect blend of culture, chaos, and cheeky good fun. I mean, who wouldn’t want to indulge in a water fight that spans not just a city but an entire country?
First Things First: What the Heck is Songkran?
Songkran is the Thai New Year, which falls on April 13th every year and extends for a couple of days. The entire country partakes in a celebration that includes anything from temple visits to elaborate water fights. Think of it as Christmas, Fourth of July, and Spring Break having a love child while techno beats pulsate in the background.
