The first time I ever experienced the Songkran festival it was fun and cute I was in a small village few hours North of Bangkok and only one of a few hundred revelers which consisted mainly of children. Everyone else either stayed home and went to the temple where a circle of maybe 20 big […]
Thai people do some wired things it’s the cultural differences that perhaps to me seem weird but to Thai people and others they don’t think it’s weird at all. By weird I mean abnormal to me, things like peeing in the shower wearing clothes that don’t need to be warn, walking around calling yourself black
Spirit worship in Thailand is extremely common and while you might not believe in spirits you can at least appreciate when people do. I think the whole thing is fascinating and sometimes scary. Pat (my girlfriend) started acting weired one day complaining about being sore all over her body she couldn’t tell me what was
I’ve been in Pattaya for a few days now and it’s been tiring, compared to Chiang Mai it’s not as hot but it’s been overcast. Haven’t even had a chance to really explore any of the nightlife as yet as my girlfriend had by chance some family that came down for a short holiday so
By the title of this article you might think i’m writing this totally plastered but I assure you i’m not! In fact I couldn’t be more sober. Yes I do believe the vast majority of Thai girls are fat! I don’t mean they are obese or overwieght due to the Thai diet and the amount
That time of year again have to drag myself out of bed super early to go to the Chiang Mai Immigration office to get my Visa renewed for another year. This is now my 3rd year of an Ed Visa (Education) so it being my 3rd year of learning Thai I thought there would be
So I thought i’d look into some of these iPhone apps that were talked about in my last post when I clicked on a link that said “show other apps from this developer”. I get directed to this page. I wish web developers would stop doing this. There is nowhere for me to go now,
So the weirdest thing happened tonight. This guy emails me today on the site says he wants to meet up have a beer chat you know. That’s cool because I’m always going out anyway and I’ve met some really cool friends from the blog so far so it’s cool. Anyway the guy is from the
I’ve been living in Thailand for nearly 3 years straight now (except the 4 days I went back to Australia and 5 days I went to Cambodia). The past 3 years have been awesome, I’ve learned to speak Thai fluently and I’ve met so many awesome people, and weired guys to boot. But after 3
When your in a foreign country you have to have a little self constraint you need to take a few punches. It’s never wise to get into an altercation with anyone least of all with those who serve and protect as well as people with lowly jobs like mechanics, Tuk Tuk drivers, and general laborers.
You always hear people say how cheap it is to live in Thailand compared to western countries. And while it is cheaper for many things it’s also more expensive than others. Now i’m not saying that Thailand is as expensive as living back in California or Sydney but it can cost you more than you
Just below in this article is a picture that is circulating around Facebook today it had 40,000 likes mostly from Thai boys and girls who liked the picture. In the picture are 7 Thai young girls maybe 13-14 in age some wearing Thai school uniforms showing their panties bras and appearing half dressed. I doubt
When you live in Thailand for a while you start to get familiar with a lot of things. You start to understand how things work, why is this, and why is that. But then there are things you don’t understand, things that just boggle the mind beyond the laws of reason sane and normalcy. Those
Every year on the 31st of December I’ll write down exactly what I want to do for the next year. So to begin the New Year in I thought I’d get a list together for things I want to accomplish for this site in 2012. I hope everyone had a happy new year! Go to
Well it’s officially Christmas day and it’s freezing outside. Since I come from Australia cold weather and Christmas just never goes together and no matter how long I stay away from the country (now 9 years) it will never feel like Christmas. I guess tommorrow will be a rather warm day and it will feel
You ever come back from Thailand with a pile of stuff in your bag that you thought were cool and interesting but now your back home and have no idea what to do with? Well I bet you one of those useless items you picked up on your vacation to Thailand is in this list
