bendix Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Seeems to be economic reasons mainly. For me it is the price of cigarettes and the cost of domestic help. Availability of reasonably priced travel within and outside of Thailand. You moved half way round the world because cigarettes are cheap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basslifeform Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Because I always go to bed with a smile on my face and wake up the same way. No matter how stressed my day was I can sit on my little balcony with a cold beer and a beautiful woman and watch the sun go down over the coconut trees, and realize I'm never gonna freeze my tits off again working for some A-hole. I can stuff my face on delicious food all day for 60 baht and, when I do have time for a trip away from home I don't have to f*** about buying airline tickets to find a little corner of paradise.

warriors Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Because living in Bangkok you do not need a car and the taxis are so cheap. Better 5 star accommadation at half the price you pay in your own country. Being able to put weight on for being happy and contented (eating well Thai food) Not worrying about much day in day out. love the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macb Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 A Sawadee greeting is much more warming than a hand shake, and there is always a smile and help when you need it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thommo46 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 A Sawadee greeting is much more warming than a hand shake, and there is always a smile and help when you need it The ringing in my ears disappear when I am in LOS,maybe because it is less stressful or the gravitational pull.

qwertz Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 (edited) Thanks for allowing me to contribute here. Spoken like a true wimpy Canuck. Oh, is it ok if I exist in this space? I can pay and everything and volunteer to pick up the garbage... Go to a psychie and delete all that drivel that's been driven into your head, honey. You drive a pickup with turkey balls and shotgun rack accessories, FRI? What's the sound of snow crunching? What's a perogie? What is in West Edmonton Mall? Do you pick your nose? What is on 97th Street and what is its sister area in BKK? Are you a nice person? Oilers or Habs fan? Wrong answers, you die. Please Ms. JG, I don't know the answers to these questions either So I like LOS cos' I don't have to think too mutt.
