mikey88 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 I’d take my time. People told me that but I never listened. i bought a house in the country and now (5 years later) can’t be bothered going there. So ....the message is...things change. As far as being close to the old city, this might change too. i used to go all the time and now I don’t. As far as the Smokey Season (March April etc)......I go away and everyone I know goes away too. The beach, their own country etc etc.. As far as traffic...it was different for me before I had a car. With a car I’m quite careful of where and when I go... If you have a car or plan to get one....parking is a big consideration. if you stay with your bike then it’s a lot easier and more fun and of course dangerous....but that up to you. My friend is in Bangcoq Hospital right now for eg.... Things change as you get older. A pool is important now whereas before it wasn’t (exercise) Being easy and close to good food is important to me now. Before I would be happy to go out every night....that wore thin after a while. Best of luck....it’s s great place. PM if you want... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People with a moobaan mentality would never understand the facination of the "old city". That's why there is chocolate and vanilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha, aye right pal. You could have lived/traveled/worked/fantasized/had a layover in a hundred countries. You still bring your moobaan mentality with you to each of those countries. It's an insecurity to mingle with something different and a need to be surrounded with things that you are familiar with. Not a character assassination just an observation and an explanation of your inability to understand a more bohemian life style 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantasies and self promotion aside I'll pass on continuing this topic as it's turning into an confrontation between my strengths and your weaknesses. We can't educate everybody, because somebody has to sweep the blood from the abattoir's floors. I can however see your fascination with moobaan living. It must make you feel like General Patton when the guard at the entrance to your gated community snaps to attention and salutes you when you arrive home.. Do you salute back? Anyway once again apologies if I've offended you in any way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
