Rented scooter was suddenly not where we left it! Stolen?

Mood killer:
Too much traffic, everyone drives as they please. Dangerous road traffic!
Selfish drivers, danger of accidents! Honking, actually everyone honks all the time.
Toilets:
The public toilets in the shopping centres are always clean and modern, also free. Better than in Germany.
Strange:
Take off shoes before going into houses. Also in front of massage shops. That is quite normal.
Airports are great:
There is an airport in every major region.
They are also very well organised, so its easy and everything goes really quickly. Security and check-in, everything is fast.
Language:
Entertaining and nice pronunciation of the Thais is always funny.
Hotel standards are great:
On average 10€, with private bathroom, air conditioning, shower and comfortable bed. In Germany certainly 5 to 10 times that!
Not everything is nice:
Not far from the dream beach, you always find littered areas. Not every place looks like on Instagram. Although most people are very happy in Thailand, poverty is always visible.
other tourists in northern Thailand:
A lot of tourists come to Thailand from other Asian countries. Especially the big tourist tours from China etc. you see very often
overpriced:
If you are ed a price, you almost have to bargain, because you can deduct at least 50%. The tourist is told twice the price.
The most annoying thing of all - overpriced taxi fares and scammers.
