Why can't I tip coins but only paper money when traveling in Thailand?

Because in Thailand, only beggars give coins. Before that, I met a little girl who was a busker in Pattaya. Someone wrapped the coin in paper money as a tip for her, and then she just threw it away and took it away. Maybe she thinks it will be embarrassing and detrimental to her dignity, so don't give it if you don't give it. After all, do as the Romans do.

The longer you come to Thailand, the less you tip. Many people who have lived here for many years seldom tip. Of course, because tourists always go to places where tourists gather, the service staff there are often used to tipping, so maybe this is not a big problem.

One of the must-see projects in Thailand is to ride an elephant or watch an elephant show, but after understanding the process of elephant training, it is estimated that I will never ride an elephant or watch an elephant show again, because the process is cruel, so if I watch it, I will give more tips. If elephants earn more, it may not be so painful.

When you arrive in Pattaya, Thailand, you will see a massage shop on the street of Bar Street. Thai massage feels more authentic than China. Generally, it is massaged by aunts, but there are few young beautiful women. If you feel good and press well, give them more tips so that the massage time can be longer.
