In person, just before I took the family to the UK, about 6 weeks ago, but I chat with 'farang' friends in Thailand daily via Line or Whatsapp. These are people I've known for years and have met, I don't include 'virtual friends' on forums.
It's unusual to see westerners here in Hat Yai, and certainly not to talk to, so it's only when I go up to Bangkok, which is about every six weeks, heading off to work.
