Marking the beginning of the Buddhist solar calendar it’s tradition during Songkran to pour water over people, symbolizing the washing away of their sins and bad luck, however as many of you know Songkran has gradually developed over the years into a celebration of throwing water using buckets and water guns.

To mark this very important occasion we hosted get-togethers in our Bangkok and Chiang Mai offices, and in keeping with Songkran traditions there was lots of food, water guns and splashing.
