Turkish towels on travel in south east asia, myanmar

Summer Moments sarong wrap
J with his Turkish towel as a sarong wrap at Shwedagon Pagoda, Yangon.
It was our first visit o Myanmar as a family.  The last time my husband and I visited Yangon was in 1998.  What a different city Yangon is now!  I was offered a few tips for packing for our trip from friends who had visited previously.  One of the best tips I received is that we should definitely bring along a sarong to enter the pagodas as there were strict regulations for not exposing knees or arms when entering the pagodas.  This is where our Turkish towels came in really handy.  Each member of our family selected their favorite Turkish towel and packed them in our carry-ons and in my case, my tote bag - yes, they are that lightweight!!  The towels emerged as soon as we got onto our Singapore Airlines flight to Yangon.  They were used as blankets while we enjoyed the inflight entertainment on our 2.5 hour flight to Yangon.  Upon arrival at Yangon, we checked into our hotel and were eager to visit the Shwedagon Pagoda.  We arrived at the entrance to the Shwedagon Pagoda and the attendant pointed to my son's exposed knees. He was wearing a pair of shorts that did not cover his knees.  Out came his Turkish towel which he promptly wrapped around his torso.  That saved the day and our family was admitted into the Pagoda.  We enjoyed our visit and our first day of adventure in Myanmar.

    I am a wife and mother of two lovely boys who keep me on my toes. I love traveling the globe with my family and reading fiction whenever I get a spare moment.  I am passionate about my range of peshtemals - Turkish towels and will happily share ideas of how to use these amazingly light weight, absorbent and quick-dry Turkish towels.  

    I would love to hear from my customers of the various ways they use their Turkish towels whether at home or while on their travels.
