Just returned to Ubon after a 3000km trip to CR, its a very nice place and very clean. Also went to Doi Tung whare the scenery is totally amazing. Stopped to purchase some fruit on the way back, and picked up an Avocado and Jack Fruit plant for my garden. Normal Avocado plant will take 2 + years to produce fruit, the one I purchased can have fruit in 1 year and already has the flowers.

 

I am now looking for a piece of land to build a small house with a large garden, if any members know of any 1-2 Rai plots drop me a PM.

Thanks for the update on your trip . I'm glad you had a pleasant visit. Its a wonderful place and so diverse I have been here more than 10 years and haven't come close to seeing it all. Come on back any time the door is always open.

We've been thinking of relocating from Bangkok to Chiang Rai, but of late there have been articles reporting the air pollution to be almost as bad as in the capital.

How much of what is reported is true?

At worst, you are no worse off!

 

I thought it was Chiang Mai that suffered with air quality.

 

Chiang Rai is one of my favorite places in Thailand and if I had a choice to move there from Bangkok, you wouldn’t see me for dust...
