So, you think it´s ok to move to another country, and the main population is still like home? Hurray! What a difference!
This is hilarious! You talk like just another cool dude, that thinks it´s classy and hot to live in Pattaya, and think nobody that post it something wrong know anything and never been there because they are isolated in a small village somewhere. Are you serious?
First, How many years have you lived in Thailand? I have over 27 by now. That, my dear, tells the story of somebody who have lived in many places. I tried Pattaya for 2,5 years. I didn´t like it. Not even 15 years ago. I also moved to Bangsaen and lived there for a little bit over 1 year. It was better, but still not ok. So, you see, I have experience.
For about 10 years now, I live out in Isaan, in a small town. However, I frequently visit all from Bangkok, Hua Hin, Pattaya, Rayong, and a lot of islands that the whole family enjoy. That, makes me know how it is today as well and how it has turned out. So, you see, no bedsit anywhere, and not really in Nakon Nowhere as you like to call it. On top of that, lived there, done that, still travel a lot.
