Daniel: The beauty of diversity lies not in erasing differences, but in embracing them as part of a shared, evolving culture.
MY recent solo trip to Hat Yai in southern Thailand was inspired by Letters from Thailand by Botan, a novel exploring the immigrant experience and the complexities of identity and cultural integration.
I travelled to Hat Yai hoping to learn more about its unique blend of cultures and languages, and to observe the depictions in the novel.
