Cannot make up my mind whether to settle in the village with Teerak and family or bring her to Australia to settle in my village (Gold Coast) with my family?
Had just about made up my mind to adopt the village life around Udon Thani when I came across a very interesting and disquieting survey about farangs residing in Thailand.
It seems that on the average , about 4 years is the maximum a farang can handle Thai life before returning to the land of "Sunshine and Beer" ? ( hmmm could be anywhere perhaps?).
Reasons stated for returnees departing the "good Life of the land of the endless grin" are:
Availability of good falang cuisine.
Being regarded as a walking ATM.
Held in contempt by Thai's
Xenophobia
Hygeine
appreciate an open and experienced discussion from all expats .
