I could go for that. 1.6 million baht, it's a bargain.
If only it was in Thailand. Fit solar panels and ply the major rivers. Do a few luxury charters on the side. Life of Riley.

Could be a good life but...luxury?

Comparative. Relative.
Beats a Thai charter.

Nice idea.... but jaysus. Tezza's fold-out trailer has more space and offers a better life.



Maybe good for somebody on the run.

What sort of food do short order cooks cook?

This trip to Thailand was meant to be the decider . Do I move here or not ?
And I'm thinking not .
Only because I find too much time is boring . I honestly don't know what I do to fill my days back in England .... but they do get filled .
Here though --- I can get from waking to about 11am fine .
Breakfast , Coffee , BBC news , Orange Juice , Toast , Mail Online , emails , Breitbart , Bacon n Eggzz ..... tidy up a bit .
But from 11 to about 5 kills me.

The dogs know what to do . Around 11 they choose their shady spot and stretch out for the siesta . But I don't want to snore away the afternoons .
It comes to something ( something rather sad ) when a trip to Homepro becomes a welcomed break in the day .
A trip to Big C is an almost super dooper break to the routine . In England I certainly never considered a trip to Sainsbury's as a welcome break in the day .
More like a pain in the armpit .
Staying here feels like living in sheltered accommodation . Warm . Food . TV . Nothing to do . Bored into napping . Death.

So I am genuinely interested in what you DO every day . You have probably been asked this question many times by the people back in your home country .

If you have kids you're not allowed to answer because your time is full .
And Stevefarang is not allowed to answer this because he's got a helicopter.

What DO you do to fill your day ? ( Probably exclude golfers too . )

I can't be bothered going through all the posts so if this has been said then just ignore.

I retired from work and moved to Thailand back in early 2006 but found it very difficult to settle into a routine of doing whatever I, or the wife, wanted. After several months I did get into a good routine of managing my vegetable garden but it didn't occupy more than half a day at most. I had plenty of little hobbies back in the UK that occupied after-work hours but nothing substantial that could take up more time because it wasn't available. I ended up going back to work after 18 months and have continued working since albeit with 3 months a year break in Thailand.

Whilst working, since returning from Thailand, I have tried to find different hobbies that I would like to spend more time doing and have now reached the stage of wanting to retire in Thailand to pursue those hobbies. The hobbies were deliberately chosen to be things I have never bothered with or not since childhood. I have taken up Photography, Piano and Fishing. Although I did fish in my youth, the other two were completely new to me and I considered myself hopelessly ignorant of both during my life. That was the main trigger for me, learning something completely new before I end up as food for the worms...

You don't have to pick an expensive hobby (photography can be a real drain on funds) and you don't have to be good at the one(s) you pick; remember no-one but you cares a damn how good you are. The only thing is that you must be interested enough to keep the hobby going. As an example, I am completely useless at music despite being able to read it and play all the major and minor scales. I spend only 30 minutes a day playing the scales, happy as pie to play simple pieces but still waiting for all that practice to click into place. It never will until I am in Thailand and playing 3-4 hours a day, which will never happen because it will ruin my fishing and vegetable growing and photography days.

Does any of that make sense?

It pays the bills.

Isn't it expensive commuting to work from Vietnam?
