Not a traveller, no way

If being a traveller means "been there seen this done that" attitude, looking all-experienced and sullen in front of world's most amazing views and talking about places in a too-familiar bit bored tone afterwards, then I don't want to be a traveller (anymore). I've done my share of trying desperately to look cool even being completely lost and bewildered. No more!
To pretend that I'm seeing only the genuine treasures and well-kept secrets is really humbug. Everyone not living permanently in Bangkok is a tourist here. Full stop.

I want to be childishly surprised, delighted and astonished about everything, mundane or noble or something in between. I want to take pictures of sleeping cats, buddha-like fat babies or bananas as well as temples. I am willing to confess that I have no idea about the culture, habits, etiquette around me and I don't want to pretend I do, but I'm willing to learn. I want to ask advice, tips and hints, find out.

Humbly I realize that I'm seeing only a fraction of this city, hardly learning to navigate in the closest blocks around me. But that's good and enough. I am here now, that's enough. Hmm... this sounded badly as dogmatic declaration but I had some negative encounters with hardcore travellers today and I want to differentiate.
