We Want To Go Back Home To Germany

[fhickson]

I was traveling recently to a desolate border area. At the bus station I met a young german couple on the way into town via red truck. Got to the empty bus station late at night, nobody else around with a pack of tuk tuk wolves right there as we exited.

We got to chatting, the german couple said "we just want to go back to germany". I asked how long they were here for and they said until oct 8th about another week. I said, yeah well, its not for everyone, but worth seeing just so you know. That's what travelings good for, to figure out what you like and don't like.

Really refreshing to talk with someone out of town who gives an honest answer, rather then acting like they adore the place just to be cool and tough, or acting like it's paradise just because everything negative is interpretation in your head.

Did they mention WHY they diden't like it?

Without giving reasons why, this is a pointless thread.

Possibly the Farang-Lady realised that she coulden't compete with the outer appearace of Thai Ladies at her own age.

Worst thread of the year. Congrats 

[neeray]

Pointless thread and a big waste of forum space.

 

Tuk tuks .... just ignore them. No big deal.

Tuk tuks can attract a bad group of drivers but many are decent people trying to support a family... if you think of them as a pack of wolves... well,... 

 

it could be worse... no transportation and arrive at night and have to walk into town - - but you'll save your 100 baht - have a nice beer... with your pack of beer wolves...

In a way I agree. 

 

These tuk-tuk drivers want lots of money from everyone, including Thai people. 

Is what they charge fair? It seems to be expensive. But I don't know if they make money the whole day or make just one trip every two hours or so. 

 

And whatever they charge will be cheaper than a German taxi...

Never encountered one that wasn't obviously a criminal. (pimp, drug dealer, thief, conman, murderer)

My first Thai LTR gf used to hang with them, she was also a criminal.

 

I'm OK with walking.

Sorry, but I find it hard to believe the womans statement "wanting to get back to Germany" was based wholly on the actions of a couple of tuk-tuks at a random "desolate" bus station.

 

If older people, there can be various issues when travelling..

the heat gets to them, muscle aches, back pains from lots walking, or simply just missing their home, family etc ect.

 

Granted, thats not what thaivisa want to hear though!

 

And if they really wanted out because its a shเthole, then at least it evens the numbers of dossers who get here and declare they are "never going home"

 

[Kadilo]

Sounds like the OP who has called them a pack of wolves not the German couple so could be any number of reasons why they want to go home, anyone’s guess.

Simply the most pointless thread ever and that's saying something! I am 100% convinced that you are single?

I don't really like taking tuk tuks.,.. for some it is sort of an amusement park experience of being in Thailand... some ask a correct price, some are exorbitant... some want to take you shopping at a jewellery store while they wait outside... 

 

But more importantly, where can I get one of these German taxis? I like to ride in comfort - will they pick me up?

How do you know if people that say they like the place they stay are doing it to be cool and though, or if they do it because they really like it?

How do you know people are acting like it is paradise, because they do not want to listen to all the negative in their head?

You do not know that, and all you just post is based on your own opinion. After that you are blaming your own opinion on other people that might say their honest opinion.

Here is a much better advice. If you do not like it, just leave it. Not try to make other peoples opinion false, just because you do not agree.
