  1. 3 years in and I've made a few mistakes. Nothing terrible or life threatening but mistakes nonetheless. I have a great job, great woman, rental house, car....I'm pretty happy. I am positive that learning Thai is the upmost importance if you are going to live here. And overall as soon as you can become independent from Thai services, such as taxis, etc, your life is much easier.

    My other choice would have been Colombia. I was there 6 years, fluent in Spanish and had lots of friends. Visas are way easier and so is working.......and Colombian chicks are incredible if you haven't seen them.

  2. They are coming in December....being distributed by the big Ducati shop during the MotoExpo. I will try to find a link for it. DON'T believe a Facebook link for RE in Thailand....its a huge fake.

    Scroll down to the post on 10/15/2015. So pretty much will be from the Thonglor Ducati shop.....so I have a feeling we will get Ducati Shop in Thonglor prices and not real RE prices. I expect them to be double or triple priced.

  3. Does anyone use a travel agency for regional business travel? I need one to do tickets, hotels, and visas (when needed) and it be billed directly to Singapore office. Yes, I have looked at Google are there are a few, most have bad reviews. Thanks in advance!!

  4. If I had to do it all over again, I would have picked Panama or Colombia. Yes, they all have their problems. Police aren't the best, there's always BS in the government etc......But for me personally, being fluent in Spanish already would have made my move easier.

  5. Kenny, we looked for a very long time as well. We saw a few of the cheaper bulldogs, and I have to be honest, they were in terrible shape. Their skin was horrible and their heads looked more like Boston Terriers than Frenchies. We ended up getting one from a breeder in Chiang Mai and I am really happy. Yes, it is expensive, but I rather pay more for a healthy dog than get a cheaper one with medical problems.

  6. I would say for your first year to live close to your work while you are getting comfortable with your surroundings. Eventually, you will keep expanding your territory and in no time you will have everything down just fine. Keep your wits about you like anywhere else and it will be ok.

  7. I still wouldn't be surprised if someone paid a young newbie bomb maker to do the usual scare (more bark than bite) bomb. But after this guy was a tad overzealous and killed all these people, everyone involved is in hiding and will keep quiet. I doubt anyone will claim it. If it was a real bad group like ISIS or Al Qaeda, they would have claimed it immediately with a video message.
