Whatever happened to fair dealing? And pure ethics? And nice manners?

A woman travelling through Thailand has seriously p*ssed off locals after refusing to put her ‘rancid’ feet away on a packed bus.

Narong Thaopanya, 21, was travelling over 260 miles by coach from Bangkok to Sukhothai province in northern Thailand on last week.

But his eight-hour bus ride took a turn for the worse when a blonde traveller sat in the seat behind him and put her sweaty feet on top of the chair at his side.

Thaopanya said he pleaded with the woman, believed to be French, and begged her to remove her skanky traveller feet, but she wouldn’t listen.



An outraged Thaopanya said: ‘This woman’s face was beautiful but she had no manners.’

‘I asked her many times to put her legs on the ground and she would not do it,’ he said. ‘She just kept them in the air.

Thaopanya said the smell was ‘rancid’ and made him feel physically sick on the boiling hot coach.

‘The smell from her feet was filling the whole bus.’

He quickly took a picture of the offending appendages to warn others.

‘Somebody will have to use the seat and put their head where her dirty feet have been.’

Thaopanya said this isn’t normal behaviour anywhere, and people should treat others with respect while they’re travelling.

‘Would she have done this in her own country?’

‘People should be more respectful when they are visitors to other people’s countries.’
