sandyf Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 52 minutes ago, Andrew Dwyer said: For example if I decided to go back home with my wife after seven years here would the headline be “ Thai couple relocates to the U.K. “ ?? No, more likely it would be “ Thai couple fails to relocate in the U.K. “ with statements along the lines “Honestly, there were so many times I felt regretful about this decision. It seemed like the end of the world. Wading through waist-deep government red tape just to get there, I’d look around and think, What am I doing?” But keeping in context the first part of your post is probably right, click bait. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've followed their dream, something that is apparent many have not, majority just come here to drink themselves to death with the devils alcohol - horrible drug! Good luck to them... Very common on here. It's a forum full of angry old men whos lives are empty with nothing better to do than whinge about everything and everyone whilst waiting for death. Well done to the couple and best of luck. 5 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KhunLA Posted February 21 Popular Post Share Posted February 21 6 hours ago, HighPriority said: “Look at me !” ”Look at me !” Yep ... nothing 1000s of us haven't already done, and apparently with better forethought (flood area & smog). They obviously had a nice bank account, since stating they can live on $500 a month, along with the 400k in the bank, if marriage visa. Since that's not enough to meet Imm requirements, and nothing financed, or their monthly bills would be more. There monthly petrol bill is probably their biggest expense, since out of town a bit. Don't think they are living off the land yet, or they wouldn't need to spend ฿17k a month, as we spend less than that on necessities, and our garden isn't producing enough food to live on. So quite of bit of BS in that story, and suspect leaving quite a bit out. Kudos for the move, and being independent, as I can relate, but worthy a news-blip ... I think not. OK, I'm officially bored ... Sniffy, time for a walk. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Denim Posted February 21 Popular Post Share Posted February 21 8 hours ago, jak2002003 said: This is a joke? It's illegal for foreigners to be farming as work here. What visas are they here on, if they are below retirement age? How can they own the land they are farming? How have they registered the house in their name? They think it is so isolated to be 30 minuites from the city, lol Also, they dug the well by themselves..haha, with shovels? I am detecting a wee bit of outrage so far But seriously , foreigners building a house in Thailand is not exactly something new. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ChrisY1 Posted February 21 Popular Post Share Posted February 21 11 hours ago, JensenZ said: It's a bit dumb to advertise to the whole of Thailand that you're working illegally. Ben said: "Despite still being involved in a UK chef recruitment business, the reduced cost of living alleviated work-related stress for him, reported Business Insider. “I don’t need to earn thousands every week or month.” Beyond work, Ben devoted himself to farming and chronicled his experiences on YouTube. He aimed to portray the realities of his journey authentically, encompassing both joys and hardships." So he's working on a chef recruitment business online, and YouTube is a business too. He's a bit of a dumb*** They're Brits! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burma Bill Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 15 hours ago, webfact said: Settling in the serene province of Nong Bua Lam Phu Whatever the adverse, and in many cases jealous, comments on AN, congratulations on achieving your ambition. IMO, you have chosen a very pleasant picturesque area of Isaan in Thailand to live in. The cost of living will be less expensive than "rip off" Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket etc. etc. down south. I used to live not so faraway in Phu Wiang, Khon Kaen Province before moving to Cambodia. Enjoy your new life. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
