The Red Cloud is not waterproof. Use a pack cover to keep it dry. They're light weight and inexpensive: http://www.backcountry.com/store/KEL0149/Kelty-Backpack-Rain-Cover.html This would be a great pack for a trip to Thailand. Lots of space for your stuff and the removable hood turns into a hip pack. You can load the pack from top or through the back panel so getting at your stuff in the middle of the pack is a breeze. Have fun on your trip!
