Lets see if i can remember what I've done for 20 odd years-
pattaya 1 year, chiangmai 2 years, chiangrai 9 years, Ban Chang 3years, Bangkok the rest.

Now I am stuck in a job in bangkok-it really sucks--all my fault

Default Hello there

Asiaexpat,

Hi, welcome to eslhq. I was in Thailand 2 years ago, I can totally understand how a person could stay for 20 years, it's a beautiful place. I was wondering what kind of changes have you seen in that time? And what was the expat community like there when you first arrived? Has tourism grown exponentially or was the tourist industry almost as big even then?

Glad to have you with us.
