  1. There is real French cheese (and Spanish, Italian, English,...) at Villa Market.
  2. - Near Bangkok - Close to an international airport - By the sea - It has good shopping centers - Good Thai and international restaurants from many countries (Spain, England, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Iran, Georgia, China, India,...) - Very good hospitals. - Good public transport service at a good price. - It's the perfect size, not too small and not too big. - Its cheap - It's touristy and everyone speaks English. - There are diving centers. - Numerous tourist attractions in the city and its surroundings. - Good golf courses (if you like golf) - Dynamic and full of action. It's not boring at all.
  3. To decide which would be my best place to live in Thailand, I visited with my wife all the tourist sites in Thailand, including Hua Hin. We found Hua Hin to be a suitable place for retirees over 70 who are golf fans. Personally, we found it boring, and after a week we didn't know what to do there anymore. If you are going to try Hua Hin, my advice is to rent for a month and check if the place is for you, before renting for a long term.

    The OLED panel that the Sony television has is from LG

    OLED is better than QLED when it comes to black color. Night or space images look sharper. But the price is MUCH more expensive. On the other hand, Samsung's software is better than LG's and is more standard, so there are Apps that cannot be installed on an LG. After much comparison I bought myself a Samsung.
  6. If you like big cities, and lived in NYC many years and had a good time, better move to Bangkok. I chose Pattaya precisely because I hate big cities and my ideal is a small city by the sea, but with all the comforts of a big city (hospitals, shopping malls, restaurants,...) and close to an international airport.

  8. No. That sounds like a corrupt left-wing populist government rather than a corrupt right-wing government. But still corrupt and coming from vote buying.
  9. I visited much of Thailand during CoVid-19 and was surprised by the panic there about the epidemic. The general idea was that it was transmitted by foreigners and in some shops they directly prohibited us from entering. Even Thais outside of Chiang Rai were subject to a lot of restrictions. Some of my wife's relatives directly refused to receive us because we came from Bangkok and Phuket. Cutting my hair was outright impossible, until I ended up at a small barbershop run by an old man who seemed to really need the money and agreed to cut my hair. I did not have the same problem in any other part of Thailand (Chiang Mai, Bangkok, Phuket, Koh Samui, Koh Tao,...)

    If everyone sells a product for 1,000 baht, and someone else sells it for 100 baht, don't bother buying it, because it sure is a scam. Even in Amazon. I had that problem with memory cards, once. Never again! Fortunately, Amazon's return policy is good.

  17. I don't usually go to bars, except sometimes the skybar in Siam@Siam, or sometimes to the Hilton, to have a cocktail while watching the sunset. But I do drink in restaurants at lunchtime, or at the Holiday Inn seafood buffet on Saturdays. As for my language expressive abilities, they are quite good in my native language, and I think I can handle myself acceptably well in the other languages that I speak to a greater or lesser degree (Spanish, English, French, Russian, Italian and Portuguese).
  18. In chemical engineering. Oxidation of hydrocarbons in complete mix reactors.
  19. There is a Piri Piri Flaming Grill in Terminal 21 Pattaya. https://goo.gl/maps/FjWNMDJRdc8pB8rFA
  20. Pattaya is not as good a dive site as Koh Tao or Koh Lipe, but there are a couple of dive centers that organize dive trips: departures from the port in a boat, two dives and food on board. I usually dive with No Limit Divers in Second Road (near restaurant Casa Pascal) https://goo.gl/maps/sAm4CaPSqWQdaPVR9
  21. Does he prefer New Zealand wine to Italian? What a gourmet!
  22. Maybe they are about to expire
