    This is a very interesting question to me.  My very sweet Thai GF grew up on a farm in Phetchabun province.  She has been proposing that when I retire in 10 years we can live on her family's farm there.  I am ambivalent about such a prospect.  In America I did fantasize about homesteading, but never actually lived on a farm.  I would love to hear about other expats' experiences as gentlemen farmers in Thailand.

    I think is important to learn not to depend on wife, if you can socialise wth locals it opens many doors , ie bit of hunting fishing and other manly pursuits????????

    I have seen they enjoy farang drinks to with coke and ice. Green import bottled beer is also very popular. But the shop next door sell lao Khao, and the locals meet there every morning for their breakfest before they hit the road with their speedy two wheel  tractors

    Yeah in the villages around me they drink beer and dark whiskey. Where i stay very few young thais and all the guys i go hunting and work with tell me not buy , they always have aunties top of the line lao khao , the shop stuff is nasty . I would say if you want live up here is gd to be involved with locals in work and the schools they stop calling you farang

    When I arrived outback, the men was shocked to learn the farang did not drink ???? Well my gf family do not drink either, so I fitted in pretty well. Just her cousin was dissapointed, for he hoped to have a drinking partner who paid his drinks 

    Yeah it makes big difference when father in law doesnt drink , was lucky their. Village locals only drink lao keuw which we brew ourselves
