February 9, 200719 yr Hi All, My aussie wife and Iplan to relocate to Chiang Mai, or rather on the outskirts of the city. My wife was wondering if there are other western women living in the region. We realize that most of the expats have found the love of their life, which more often than not would be a Thai lady. So, just out of curiosity, we wondered about the number of women from Australia, Canada, or the U.S.? Any replies, as always, is appreciated. Sincerely, Tom

Sincerely, Tom Although I am not a participant, I have on many occasions seen quite a number of young foreign families going to the Christian church on Charoenrat Road as well as dining at a nearby restaurant. There are a lot of NGO families here as well as missionaries so if that sort of lifestyle suits you I don't think your wife will have any trouble meeting new friends.
February 10, 200719 yr I'm part of the NGO world and there are a lot of expat women/spouses here. The NGO circle is fairly big but I have also heard from friends that there are over 5000 missionaries (including their kids) in the area as well. Most of the expats I meet are American but I do know a lot of Germans and Canadians as well. My wife (a Canadian) belongs to a few groups of expat women - play groups and a tennis group. I don't think it would be too difficult to find others here with similar interests.
February 10, 200719 yr There are a fair number of normal, Western women living here and they tend to stick together and give each other support.
