FROM THAILAND WITH LOVE! (AUGUST & SEPTEMBER 2020)

We live in a difficult time in which some extra love is welcome! That is why we started our From Thailand with LOVE campaign in April. We asked our Thai friends and relations to write a text from the heart. This with the goal to show how super sweet the Thai people are and to spupport the hospitality industry in this amazingly beautiful country. Since our very first visit to the land of smiles we have been totally in LOVE with Thailand and the Thai!

Hopefully we and many others can return to amazing Thailand soon.

For now, be good for yourself and to each other!
“And, in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make.” – Paul McCartney

From J'AIME by Jean-Michel Lorain with LOVE!

Let the sound of music comfort you and the joy emerge… When you have chefs without a kitchen and waiters with no one to wait for, you need hope. The seeds underground are still growing and the farms are ready to carry their harvests to us. So let’s walk together, responsibly, learning from the signs of our wounded planet, that the future will be brighter, if we make the right choices; that we’ll be rewarded for the good work done. While traveling is still a challenge, I can hear, from a distance, the rumbling noise of the train coming, for all those souls that aren’t born to be locked away and separated…. “Grab your ticket and your suitcase Thunder's rolling down the tracks You don't know where you're goin' now But you know you won't be back Darlin' if you're weary Lay your head upon my chest We'll take what we can carry And we'll leave the rest Big wheels rolling through fields Where sunlight streams Meet me in a land of hope and dreams” People get ready, ‘cause the train is coming! J + J'AIME by Jean-Michel Lorain

Greetings all, Our team here at Mia restaurant are counting down the days to serve you again. Our thoughts and prayers goes out to those heavily affected by this unprecedented pandemic. We are extremely proud of each other here in Bangkok. We have been less affected then most other places. As a city it’s been an amazing journey that we have all been through together. The city has really come together. There has been a new profound energy and respect that has been born through this unfortunate event. Everyone is looking out for each other and supporting where they can. Chefs have cooked for the jobless and hospital staff are being given the encouragement they deserved. It’s wonderful to see this sense of community. We at Mia have been developing a new menu and we can’t wait for everyone to come back and try! Until then, sit tight, be safe and be sensible. We need to persevere through all this together. With Love, ----- The entire Mia cew -----

From Escape & Flamenco with LOVE!

Dear readers of Thailand Magazine, We are writing on behalf of Escape Bangkok and Flamenco Bangkok. During this COVID-19 pandemic, many of us were affected in one way or another for the worse. We have witnessed the hardships and hurt of my beloved Thais. We want you to remember that everyone can make a difference. Simple acts that can make a difference include remembering to wash our hands, wear masks when needed and social distance. Also, it doesn't matter who you are where you came from; everyone should try to fight through this hard battle. We have to encourage positive thinking and kind actions that will empower one another. Also, remember to be grateful for the small things in life that make us happy. Best regards, ----- The entire Escape & Flamenco crew ------

From The Slate with LOVE!

Today’s disruptive times have stirred up the value of belongingness, allowing us to view this world as one single interdependent community, as strong as the weakest link. We want to acknowledge those in our community who are shouldering the extra weight of the world on their shoulders right now, and to all who have been affected by these unsettling times. We would like to take this opportunity to send a message of positivity, hope, and support, and let us use this space to feel connected rather than isolated, that life will continue and good times will be had again. Isolation has sparked endearment for travel, and while the healing process may take time, travel will bounce back, passion for seeing new places, and travel culture will prevail. Even standing in silence, human connection is what gives meaning to our lives. And when the world reopens, let us be more appreciative of the beauty of life, more grateful and more understanding of human connection, and together we rebuild the world intentionally and sustainably. From Phuket with ❤, ----- The Slate -----

From The Elephant Poopoopaper Park with LOVE!

Here at Elephant POOPOOPAPER Park in Chiang Mai, Thailand, for over 15 years we’ve become well accustomed to working daily with poop to craft our incredibly unique and sustainable paper products made from elephant poop. However, the sheer enormity of poop that the global covid-19 pandemic has dropped on so many around the world has been of an entirely different variety and scope. We truly hope that Ilonka and Riel, the entire Thailand Magazine extended family and all the people who read this stay safe as this battle against the virus continues. In early July, Elephant POOPOOPAPER Park has re-opened for tours, crafting and DIY activities on weekends and holidays only for now. Our team at the Park are thrilled to be back scooping and crafting! While the business environment is tough, we are so happy to be able to offer a beautiful, wide-open, natural garden setting where the community can come and escape to and where they can safely experience some normalcy in a lush outdoor environment. We’re hopeful that in the near future people will feel comfortable enough to travel anew and that Thailand will be full of smiling faces from faraway lands and that Elephant POOPOOPAPER Park will once again be making all our visitors smile - one turd at a time! See you all again soon! ----- The Elephant Poopoopaper Park team -----

From La Casa Nostra with LOVE!

During Covid, our first thought went to the team and all our staff. Many worried of losing their jobs and we know everyone has responsibilities to earn money for their family and loved ones. We made sure that all our team were taken care of both morally and financially. Because we know, without their help, we would not have been successful. We are once again allowed to be opened and we are happy to have our full team with us! We also would like to thank our local patrons, customers and friends who supported us and visited us during the past weeks. We are looking forward to welcome our friends from abroad once the border is open and travels could resume. In the meantime, We wish you all to stay safe and look forward to welcome you to Thailand soon! With amore, ----- The La Casa Nostra famiglia -----

From The Wine Merchant with LOVE!

Wow! It was tough! As one of the wine suppliers in Thailand, we had gone through very difficult period due to Covid. Starting with the fact that restaurants were asked to not allow dine-in customers and only allowed takeaways. No tourists were allowed in the country which makes hotels, which many are our very good customers need to temporary shut down due to no guests. This followed by total Ban of Alcohol sales in the country to avoid social gathering for a period of more than 1 month . Which means we were not able to continue our normal operation. It was tough! Instead of complaining, we used that time to reflect and plan. What could we do to make our company stronger, our wine selection better and our team to be ready for when things starts to get better. We tried to look into ways to improve our services with better deliveries. Luckily we had set up a wine delivery application that has helped us tremendously during this difficult situation. We look forward to when our friends who own restaurants and hotels to bounce back and look forward to welcome friends and tourists from other countries to visit Thailand again soon! In the meantime, take good care! ----- From The Wine Merchant with LOVE! ------
