Thanks for teeing me up

The Thai missus and I are going to be building a house on a family plot of land. I am somebody who works from home, so I have always preferred living in houses to apartments. With it being my office and my home, it needs to be fairly spacious, so I don’t get cabin fever. So, a house with a garden has always been my preference. I have rented quite a lot in the past; usually staying for one or two years, before getting bored of the house or sick of the landlord. With that being the case, I have managed to amass some experience of different places. I want to use these experiences to plan our house build, taking all the best elements and ditching all the negative aspects.

Before I provide information on our project, I would first like to take you on a tour through my previous rental accommodation, as it is these experiences that inform the designs I have. I have been living in Thailand since 2007, in a mixture of single room apartments to large houses. So as not to make this War & Peace, I will limit this section to houses I rented in Pattaya between 2015 and 2020.
