Thailand Expat

Thank you for more information. It is very interesting.

And thanks for your precious compliments. Frankly, I have never thought I could go this far, more than a year now. I have got more than 2 million marks (wish it could give me some discount somewhere) now.

No, sadly I had to leave because of jealousy just at 32 years ago. My partner and I who was a son of the Somwong family took it from little beachfront shacks to nice little ensuite bungalows and developed the gardens. After I left the son Thanonsak "Pae" developed it into the beautiful resort it is now. I set up the layout and got the restaurant up and running full steam. Thanks for providing what you do Nong. Glad you stopped the part about the shooting of Ananda. This is a super touchy subject. Choke dee Nong and keep it up.. Pae opened a new Princess Paradise on Koh Phangan just as Covid hit. Hard times for all the southern islands right now with Covid.

Nong, anything Klondyke posts about Thailand, building, pools, etc it is okay. But when he goes into politics there are big problems. He can usually use his English fine, but I could not make that one out. I never understand what he is saying in politics, just that he is trying to make problems. Its an open forum so you get all kinds of people. I was born and raised in Saudi Arabia, left at 12 for Marin County California, just across the GG bridge from SF. I have been here for 33 years, but first came about 43 years ago. Had a restaurant and bungalows on Samui. Now known as Samui Paradise Chaweng beach resort & spa, Koh samui thailand.

Hi, glad to hear from you! I'm fine here. The covid here is never slow but I hardly go out. I'm fine within my peaceful house... creating articles!

See ya...

Hello Nathaniel . . . yes, I'm still here - work has picked up and with the time differences it takes its toll a bit.

How are you? Has covid affected you or your family in any way?

Thank you again for your thread - it's ever so interesting

Thank you for checking in

I'm sure I will. Thanks
