- Vietnamese women on the beach try to persuade you to buy their bracelets by offering you 'happy hour' prices.

- it rains so hard the sole of your flip flop melts away and the rest of it disintegrates into a rainy puddle.
- your tour guide won't let you go swimming until five p.m.
- you pay for a book only to discover that it's photocopied and the last pages are missing.
- you can't leave your toothbrush out without it being invaded by ants.
- avocado is featured prominently on every menu but not a single restaurant will serve you it.
- motorbikes are the only form of transportation, regardless of whether you're carrying a bookcase, a sewing machine, or your entire family.
- cows graze in the middle of the highway.
- some people can't cross the border without dropping their pants to their ankles and flashing their undies to the border officials and an amused crowd of tourists.
