How Do You Handle Living Here?

[Jockey]

i'm similar to you, but i sum it up in 4 words:
tolerance, patience, integration, family values, understanding culture, compromise, air con and respect
.

thats twelve words . . . . . . .

15 if you count your three and 25 if you count mine

I was going to put this in my other post but i feel it deserves a seperate post
One piece of advice given somewhere in this thread was We should lead by example
all i will say is thank god the thais arent taking any notice god forbid just the thought of 16 stone 150 kilo thai women walking down the high street in Bikinis is enough to put me off me dinner its bad enough with the repulsive falangs that are leading by example

That made me chuckle

When you are thinking about life in Thailand try to recall the line from the Vietnam era war movie APOCALYPSE NOW: "Chef was wound too tight for Vietnam."

Loosen the bindings and chill out. It doesn't get any better than this.
