The "Where Do You Hail From and Where Do you Hang Your Hat Now" Thread

**chitown** · 07-01-2008, 04:15 PM

This thread is so you can tell us where you grew up and also where you live in Thailand presently. If you just visit Thailand and still live back home, tell us where you "hang your hat" when you are here.

Me? Born and raised in the Edgewater neighborhood of the Windy City - Chicago!

Now I stay in Bangkok.
