    Another reason to leave Western life

    Now that I've lived overseas for 8-9 years, I realized how boring life in the West was, for me. I didn't realize it was as boring as I think it was now - that's natural - but I was bored, because at 23, I'd travelled for foreign countries, and then return to life in US suburbia, and the routine.

    Boredom....depending upon how bored one is and how regularly bored....can.....apparently take some time off of our stints on this planet.

    I like living and making money in the west, esp the US.
    There are so many things to do and see, including lots of brain foods…more so than in Thailand. Not to mention, the country is much cleaner and more orderly organized than Thailand.

    No,… I haven’t got bored yet.

    After some time every place gets bored, so a change of scenery spices your live up. However if you are just into drinking beer and chasing Bargirls then you are somewhat limited in your choice.

    You are doing your best to turn it into an art-form though RS.

    On the opposite side of the scale, stress is also a killer.
