			My . . . America | Travel USA Interview Series

What do people do when they travel to the United States? Some go to further their studies, while others might get an opportunity to spend time as an exchange visitor. But, without a doubt, most people visit the United States as tourists. Whether you are serious shoppers, nature loving hikers, budding surfers, music aficionados, or history buffs, there are interesting sites and activities on offer that will surely cater to your interests.

With our “My … America” series, we will highlight some of the more unique and fascinating reasons Thais travel to the United States to show you that America really does have something for everyone. Through a series of interviews with Thai people from all walks of life, you will see that traveling to the U.S., whether for work or play, is not as daunting as many perceive it to be. While it’s true that you’ll spend at least 20 hours on a plane, as these people will tell you, it’s definitely worth it the long-haul flight.
