I think vaping is technically illegal

but NOT enforced at all

I vaped last year everywhere in Danang/Hoi An

I had no positive or negative reactions

Didn't see any local vapers but western vapers everywhere

I warned them of the perils of doing it in Thailand !

Hi. This article isn’t to be trusted: I live in Belgium and it’s not forbidden AT ALL 😊
