  1. And not to forget, a very convenient stop going south or back up again north.
  2. We are talking about first timers. I had my love for Krabi back in the days, and honestly, Thailand is not that exotic or nice anymore, but it is my home! And not to forget the home of my wife, so that's why I'm still there. Still enjoy the islands, and the easy going life as it is in Thailand, but it will never be the same again ever.
  3. That's a bit over the top, but His Hin is a popular choice among my circle, compared to Pattaya. Can not compare to Bangkok. Neither traffic or pollution at the worst. Not really expensive either if you know where to go
  4. I have often thought about why we are here, truly, I have, and just being here, doesnt make me better than anyone else, but still I can be a good human, and see things from more than one side only. Thats quite rare here actually Anyway, It actually make me feel better sometimes when I see whats going on here, and what people do and not do! So yes, of course Im happy to be me without trying to kick lower than I have to, and rather kick upwards.

    The math doesnt go up, so lets see in his end of the term, shall we? And you blaiming Obama for the situation, and not GWB, is quite remarkable and shallow if there is blaim to be handed out I mean. World crises and unforseen happenings, do have an impact on world economics, so? And what Trump is doing now, wait and see
  6. I have done many things in life, but I have to say, skeleton is on the top of my list when it comes to speed and g forces. Wow, my first run down the olympic track at Lillehammer was the longest minute I had in my life up to that date. I wasnt fast enough to compete since you need to be a quite good sprinter, but It was an incredible experience lying flat on your tummy, head first two inches above the ice going 120km/h
  7. It have been well know for quite a time how inflamation is the root for many struggles people have, and it all comes down to an healthy mind and body. Diet, exercise, stress free life, and good sleep, and it cant be said enough times, you are the master of your own life, and thats the reality we have to live with, and deal with every day. Another good reminder ! Chronic inflammation is recognized as a major, silent contributor to more than 50% of all deaths worldwide, serving as a primary driver for a wide range of physical and mental health conditions . Unlike acute inflammation, which is a temporary, protective response to injury or infection, chronic inflammation represents a persistent, low-grade immune activation that can damage healthy tissues, organs, and cells over months or years. Inflammation is an essential biological process that serves as the body’s first line of defence against harmful stimuli, including pathogens, damaged cells, and irritants. While acute inflammation is crucial for healing and recovery, chronic inflammation can lead to a variety of diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disorders, and autoimmune conditions https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11592557/
  8. You just come here to prove you are not as retarded as everyone else ? Well, think twice about that
  9. I the time frame or span over the years, 2007 - 2015 was the gold age for us from the west thinking of the flight prices, and also our valuta exchange rate. Since then thai baht have gone up, and after covid the airline tickets gone up as it used to be back in the days, but we have to consider the inflation during this time as well. So 1200 usd back in the days is not the same as today.
  10. In the early 2000 I paid from Europe to Asia around 1200 usd for economic tickets. Now today I pay the same, how do you manage to think the prices for airline tickets have gone up? It is 25 years between? Before covid, tickets was redicolously cheaper. Half price
  11. Vimeo is a proffessional platform where you can watch for free, and have a free account, but you pay for a premium user.
  12. I know, it is a pain in the ass, but here in Thailand moving is a bigger risk than doing nothing, hence the driving culture here. I useally put on the emergency blinker if Im stuck in the line following the traffic, and it useally helps, or I do move if it is little guy in a big truck. I truly hate the Ford raptor drivers,
  13. Seems the link was invalid, try again https://s.lazada.co.th/s.ZcAkUb
  14. Brazil nuts or para nuts This company is good for nuts and stuff. Maybe not the cheapest, but they have good packing and quality. Lazadaบราซิลนัท อบธรรมชาติ อบใหม่ทุกวัน
  15. Na, just stay in the right line, and let them zig zag themselves out of it to save zero time in the end. Do like thais when in Thailand, and stay safe and do not move when you found your line. Rule of thumb, keep 3 seconds to the other car, but thats not even possible in thailand without someone constantly cutting you off.
  16. I met an 82 year old Norwegian a few years back, and he had a young gf in buriram he built a house to, bought a car, made sure her kids would have an education, and he was just so happy in life, and full of plans and life. He had to admit he needed a blue pill, but his wife was so young and fresh, so she did all the deeds. And you said what again ? My mom is stuck in a wheelchair, lost her memory, but at once she gets better she want to go to spain, Tell me what plans you got for rest of your life ? We plan for living not dying. But I agree, making a will and make life for the left behind easier, is a good deed
  17. You got so many young girls in you to teach and learn from, and then you just mature together for good and bad. Her getting older, do not mind me for one second. The qualities she got, and how she makes me feel and be, outweighs the physical appearance changes. It is good to see these short social media reels where they find old cuples and ask them what they appreciate about each other, and what the secret to stay together for so many years, and the love they show for each other. Gives hope for future
  18. This isnt really legal streaming, so what did you expect ?
  19. You got VPN on your internet box or TV?
  20. Is that what you think I ment ? :D Okay, I see I have a long way to go explaining things.
  21. Beaches of spain was a clean sewer as well back in the days, and they recovered, so anything is possible. Everyone I know, loves Hua Hin, and I didnt really thought it was that great when I lived there, but to my friends it was a nice change from every other destination they knew, and not to forget exotic. Location is everything, and Pattaya do have the perfect location, and got the infrastructure needed. Just need to clean up the a bit,
  22. I thought Pattaya do have university, and Chonburi several ?
  23. I believe Pattaya would flourish without the sex trade. It is one hour from bangkok and 45 minutes from Suvarnabhumi on a good day, and honestly many do not visit Pattaya because of its reputation! So if Pattaya clean up, it will be a great destination for many more who have money to spend on everything else than a ST.
