I am not a Thai so I do not Wai anyone,
If someone Wai's me then I nod my head and smile and if they reach out I will shake their hand.
Nothing looks more stupid than a farang running loose waiing everything from a Tuk Tuk to a soi dog and I think it looks stupid for a farang to be doing even under the proper times.
Sometimes makes you wonder why they were let out of the institution to come here in the first place.
If you want to show respect then hold a door for someone or show some consideration and do not knock them out of your way immediately after you finish the Wai.
