Thank you Naam very nice plan. We have not built yet but here is my floor plan.
typical style i am familiar with since i lived in the U.S. of A. but with functions i have never understood especially as the house is being built in Thailand. is some citicism or are suggestions allowed 147SAG?
Naam go ahead always open to suggestions and a little citicism is good can use all the help I can get, like the layout of your house.
-bath tubs (who takes a bath in Thailand instead of a shower? washbasin slabs hardly any space)
-master bathroom (what's the adjacent room which is not marked? i assume dressing room as master bedroom has no walk-in closet)
-master bathroom (are the two small enclosures marked "W/C" toilets?)
-master bedroom (similar to ours. has the heat load of three outside walls plus windows and glass doors been taken into consideration as far as airconditioning is concerned?)
-i never understood the american concept/reason splitting an area into a formal living room and a family room.
-open kitchen (any plans to cook thai and/or other various asian food?)
-windows in bedrooms 3,4 and 5 pressed lopsided into a corner (reasons?)
additional question: will the bathrooms have wall tiles and therefore look like slaughter houses? if yes why not consider to forget wall tiles like i did in a few houses i built for me and my friends? see attached pictures.
-bath tubs (who takes a bath in Thailand instead of a shower? washbasin slabs hardly any space) Bathroom at back of will be shower not bath tub,if the wife agrees,I told her she could design the next house so I may have a few fights over the changes I want, but I don't want it to look too Thai.We will use tiles in this room.Everyone using the pool will be using this bathroom as well. The washbasins in masterroom, I will move door on walk-in closet and make this one bigger, but the others I don't care if they are small.
-master bathroom (what's the adjacent room which is not marked? i assume dressing room as master bedroom has no walk-in closet) Yes walk-in closet.Will move the entrance to the walk-in closet over a bit for a bigger washbasin.
-master bathroom (are the two small enclosures marked "W/C" toilets?) The one on left is my shower, the tub is the wife's the other is the toilet. no tiles in this bathroom.
-master bedroom (similar to ours. has the heat load of three outside walls plus windows and glass doors been taken into consideration as far as airconditioning is concerned?)
I was hoping sun blocking curtains would be alright, but yes maybe too hot in this room. The patio has a roof over it may keep sun off of one wall.We could make a sunroom something like your poolroom if it gets too hot. How do you find your bedroom too hot Naam?
-i never understood the american concept/reason splitting an area into a formal living room and a family room. The livingroom will be a computer room office for me.
-open kitchen (any plans to cook thai and/or other various asian food?) Thai kitchen will be on the rightside of the patio will put up a wall at the back and cupboards by bathroom wall as well, plus my BBQ.
-windows in bedrooms 3,4 and 5 pressed lopsided into a corner (reasons?) Not sure why this is either, North American design maybe,to leave room for the beds,but I will move them in the centre of the walls. That was my plan anyway.Thanks you for the Questions Naam and the pictures of the bathrooms.

So well on target for 400-450k Baht target, about the same price of one of Naam's vase's or that fish tank!
you overestimate the price of vases in my house. but last month i spent considerably more for an additional servants quarter (36m², 2 rooms, bathroom and kitchenette)
Naam do you have a floor plan of your house that you could post?
here's my last revised plan. the actual construction varies a wee bit. the plan does not show that the pool is roofed and fully enclosed.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2009 to everyone.
Just getting to Thailand and good health for the coming year, and maybe to sell my house back home so I can retire in April 2009.

My wife became a Canadian Resident and we lived there for a couple of years, but she was very happy when I said we could retire in Thailand. My experience with talking to Thais and what my wife says is most don't want to leave Thailand and only go abroad because that is where their husband/wife lives and works. It may be different for young, educated, ambitious, Thais, but I think most uneducated Isaan girls would rather stay in Isaan. Issangeorge
My wife just returned from Canada in September and is happy to be back home after spending the last five years in Canada and the very cold winters up north, but she finds it very hot in Thailand and is still adjusting to being back home. Just as she returns home her sister has gone to the U.S. and got married there so it maybe a few years before she returns home as her husband can't retire for awhile yet. I think they think the grass is greener over here, but once they stay for awhile they miss what they had at home. Her sister finds it hard to find Thai food in there area in the stores where it was easy in Canada to find what she needed for cooking Thai food.

Sawadee Ka Everyone!
I'm moving to Thailand with my two Yorkies in a couple of weeks and have a few questions that I thought I'd pose to all of you... Would you kindly review the information below and advise whether it is correct or incorrect?

3. E-mail address
4. Details of your pet (ex. kind, breed, number, age and sex) and copy of vaccination book of your pet

Does anyone have a copy of Form No 1/1? (The importer should personally submit an application request (Form No 1/1) to import live animals into the country to an AQS veterinary official, at least 15 days prior to an importation in order to receive an Import Permit.)

2. Rabies Certificate

4. DHPP Vaccination

Finally, please confirm that the following fees will be issued/levied when I arrive at the Phuket airport?
-Import certificate (if not received prior to travel)
-Authorization to do the quarantine at home
-100THB import fee for each dog (The importer must pay an import fee as prescribed by the Ministerial Regulation, which was issued in accordance with the Animal Epidemics Act B.E. 2499 (1956).)
-Receipt for fee
Are there any other fees I need to be aware of?
Best regards,
Jennifer
You may have to pay another 7000 baht at the airport after landing some kind of taxes. I paid 7000 baht for each dog and cat on September 10th when arriving at the airport.

Just opened an account at Kasikorn Bank and there was 3 choices for daily withdrawals of 50,000, 100,000 and 150,000. But I think it still just 20,000 at one time at the ATM machine.

Moving soon to Thailand and need some help locating some pet stores in Bangkok, that might sell "Iams cat food" It is the only food the cat likes at the moment. I have seen it in a magazine ad in Bangkok last year but didn't write the store or address down at the time.

Shaggs
It is Na Kae on highway 223 on Thai map not too far from That Phanom. What time on fridays do you all meet? I am arriving on 13th of September.

Moving soon to Na Kae, which is between Sakhon Nakhon & Nakhon Phanom. Anyone living close by this area. There is a Canadian that has a house down the road but he lives in Vancouver still. Anyone one else in the area?

Get the cat to a vet quickly or force feed him. They build up fat or something in there liver after as little as 4 days not eating. I left it to late with my cat 1 month before I got her into the vet, and by that time there was too much liver damage. I've had lots of cats but never came across this before. I just thought she would start eating when she got hungry. We had just gotten a new kitten at the time. Hope this helps.

Hello moving to Thailand soon and need some help. Does anyone know if and where you can get the following medications the first two are for High blood pressure and Throid (Avapro 300MG or Irbesartan 300MG) also (Adalat XL 30MG or Nifedipine CR 30MG) and (Synthroid 0.025MG or Levothyroxine sodium 0.025MG). Any help would be nice, as well as prices of the medication.

If they took the wrong tap off the transformer in stead of 208 volts could be 600 volts that would be 347 volts from one phase to ground. But then you would have blown the lights in the house and alot of other things as well.

It looks like Sakon Nakhon is about 119km from Mukdahan or if you took a flight to Nakhon Phanom its only 104km from Mukdahan. Sometimes its hard to get flights on short notice so either airport could be used.

Hello everyone I joined last year just getting around to saying hi now.Thai Visa seems to have everything you need here. We will be moving to Thailand next year. See you all then.

1.Yes thought about this myself, may redesign the whole bathroom with walk-in closet facing the bedroom to make use of the airconditioning.
2.Don't like it myself, when I redo the room they will be out in the open the way they should be.
3.What size AC units do you use and how many in the your house?
7.What is a whole house fan?
8.Have the electrical covered.
9.What is not too big to use but still works and will not cost to much to run? What about Inverter air cons?
10.Want to use Q block not sure which size yet.I want the beams all covered so want to use that size, plus better insulation value.Attic 45 degree roof with roof fan, and vents.
