Thinking if I were 20 yrs. younger, didn't have this damned Agent Orange caused cancer that took my voice and I was left crippled from the portion of my leg surgery took to give me a funnel instead of a throat and had plenty of money I doubt I would stay in Thailand in it's present state. While I missed the 90's 'boom' I got here in spring 2002 for the R&R I never got to Bangkok. That Thailand, yes I would stay. Today if 20 years younger and with enough money I would travel in SE Asia to find a place to put down roots. I probably would not stay in Thailand were farangs are only wanted for our money. I've been to today's Cambodia, no way. Years ago when Snookie was a great little place with enough women, oh yes I'm a sexpat and tough s--t if you don't like it. PI, I liked back in 2011 but for the guns, I'd have to acquire guns again. I haven't been back to VN and with my health now probably never will. Good looking women, but even in Cambo I slept with one eye open with them. And the do-gooders ran them out of Cambo. I like Asian women so SE Asia would be first choice. Puerto Rico would have been on the list and was many years ago. But the fact is everything has changed and few places will ever match Thailand in the 90's and early 2000's. I'm here, I have my love, my Lao lady of many years. I have my Mustang GT, will pretty much parked for now, thanks to an idiot that started a damn war. Nice house, nice neighbors and a young boy still in Lao. Wife's (ok I can call her that) house in Lao. I can't stay in Lao because of the lack of medical much of anything. But I've met some good folks there and they actually seem friendlier than here. So here I am and here I will die. Semper Fi
