Best types of foreigners in Thailand

[NativeBob]

Mediterranean women

Rust Belt women

that's all.

Oh, I forgot to add: I got very well with French guys - they are easy going and very friendly with self-respect and enough confidence. Haven't seen pissed Frenchman, unlike brits and aussies.

What's so good about Nimman? Traffic is horrendous. 

On either side of Nimman road is a grid of very low traffic streets, practically pedestrianized.

 

Add in the mix of old growth trees, specialty shops and endless restaurants, and I favor Nimman above Soho England or The French Quarter, NO as a party zone.

 

Tons of old Thai restaurants and street food on the side soi's. I eat at a Thai Chinese place with a strong, old Lonely Planet vibe twice a week. It's between a French creperie and a $100 a plate omakase restaurant.

 

Walk another 20 feet and you can eat Chinese noodles or in a 4* Indian restaurant. And there's 10 soi's just like mine. 

 

People of all ages and ethnicities mixing is another attraction. I live across from the Yellow Work Space. Always something going on; the weekly meetup buffet sells out.

 

Nimman also has a ton of yoga, qi gong, pilates and gyms that don't cost 69 baht a day. Most condo's have pools. I'd be in the Old City if I could rent there, but this is a great consolation prize (and 8 minutes away).

 

If you want to be near a bunch of great restaurants anywhere in the world, you have to be where the tourists are.

 

We do, so we're here. And we will be very hard to entice elsewhere. This is a great place to visit, and a great place to live. How many places can meet those two bench marks.

 

Some people live in Thailand for cheap luxury. Not for women or the beach.

I can barely make sense of that post. Not sure you understand English very well. 

 

Not sure you can read then - the post is easy enough for any idiot to understand... 

 

... What was that about keeping silent again?...   Perhaps you should not have removed doubt !!!

Actually made little sense at all. Calling someone "totally sick" well that applies to murderers and rapists not different opinions.

 

Well done on using a stupid old cliche. You just confirmed your own status.

Sangsom and local beers are rather cheap in shops. A beer costs the same as a bowl of noodles and Sangsom 2.5 bowls of noodles. How do you think Thais can afford to drink on their 8,000 baht a month budget?

I rarely drink at all. The other bozo claimed you can't drink on 31,000 baht a month 

 

You could actually drink 30 days a month on that budget if you wanted to.

Ok great. 

[GammaGlobulin]

I was not born yesterday, polite, and quiet, and I can read nautical charts.

But still, I am not the BEST type of Farang in Thailand.

 

There is no best type, only better types.

 

Also, I have yet to see a better type than me.

 

I need look no further for anyone better.

So, I do not.

 

Anytime I see a best-type Pattaya Farang, in the distance, I walk the other way.

 

The better-type Farang will never come to Thailand, for more than a 48-hour layover.

Mike, the point of forums is to write words and discuss topics. If this bothers you why are you here?

How often do you dine out?  What is your typical dinner bill?  

You make me want to add a week stay in CM next trip.  But you did forget the deadly, life shortening ,air quality 2 months out of 12.

Indeed, what began as a potentially intriguing thread was swiftly demolished by the OP’s relentless, mind-numbing attacks on every comment...

 

It seems we've all failed to recognise the glaring signs of dementia, clearly displayed in the OP’s deranged responses - Point #6: People who can recognise dementia and call it out - we've failed...

6 People who can recognise dementia and call it out

Restaurants are the same price points all over really. You can eat cheap or pay 1000 to 5000 baht. I normally spend 200 to 700 baht if 2 people. Just depends
