oh man! I have traveled all over south east asia and I tell you the one time I got sick, and really sick, aka food poisoning, was also in Myanmar! Besides that I also got a foot infection there, you know barefoot everywhere in temples, and once even a cave temple? Did you by any chance at ice cream in Myanmar? My friend and I suspected that was our source of food poisoning. Another fellow traveler said he always avoid ice creams because there are chance that the cooling was not good and the ice cream was warm enough for evil growth and then freeze up again and sold for consumption!
As much as I'm a very enthusiastic ice cream consumer, I didn't actually have any when I was there! It could have been the water, or the raw ingredients in Shan cuisine (which I ate a lot of). Tbh even now I still don't even really know what exactly it was that caused the food poisoning 😕
Yeah that's true. It could also have been the water for us, cause we did foolishly filled up drinking water from a water bucket in a guesthouse. Being frugal and all!
