  2. Issaan is no different to any other place in Thailand, I can only speak of personal experience. I honestly believe whether it be in your own country or Thailand, certain people do attract trouble more than others

  11. The first time I came, Thailand had a profound effect on me. On my return I can remember standing in my local and thinking to myself "What the f--k am I doing here" That was 33 years ago, now living in Thailand without doubt that was one of my better decisions in my life

  23. By law you are not allowed to live in another province to the one you are registered at (you can be deported) Just change your residence and you should be ok. When Thai immigration visited our house 3 months ago I asked them the reason, they said because people live elsewhere to where they are registered
