Why are the Irish never embarrassed to say they're from Ireland? According to every stereotype imaginable, they're religious fanatics, heavy drinkers, loudmouths, redheads, money grubbers, pale as vampires, hot headed, and always ready to settle things with their fists. I mean, for all the stereotypes people throw around, the people in that country don't really seem to fit any of them.

They don’t come to Thailand .

True but if you read Facebook comments a lot of people are now expecting Brits to cause the trouble, when it happens daily you would do that. When a thai girl asks where I'm from i think twice now, no issue currently unless we go to immigration and their treatment changes

Just say Wales, no one knows where that is.

Live in one of the urban centers for awhile and you will meet them.

Darn! Now you come out as quite bright! Keep up the good thinking.

Just tell them that your boyfriend is Susan Raquel Harris. They will be so impressed that they will no longer wonder what country you are from.

Good luck with that, the second you guys open your mouths, it's obvious where you're from, without a hint of a doubt.

Could always pretend to be French

Being a Scandinavian is quite pleasant in Thailand. A minority who goes more or less under the radar most places.

Thais don't know where it is and never heard of them!

Depends, there are many accents. Some northern accents are hard to understand

Scandis are well known among Thais in Thailand, but we are not exposed to too much negativity, and that is a good thing.

Scandis are well known for many things, but most of all, they say we have money.

That's because there aren't many scandis

Phuket has a few Scandos. The Germans and French like Hua Hin.

No to Aussie, too many bogans

No to American, too loud

No to Canadian, anger management issues.

I think I'll be a kiwi, generally smarter than aussies.

I guess you know the clients of certain tourist cities in Thailand, and to be honest, Thailand hosts some of the most whining men on the planet when it comes to negativity about their own countries.

We need more cross breeding to breed out the bad genes. An ugly farang has a kid with an ugly Isaan woman and the kid is good looking!

I watch African reels and the women are often ugly, too much inbreeding, i agree with mixing it up. They have good fruit though

How come ugly parents have attractive cross bred kids? Normally 2 ugly parents same race produce ugly kids like them.

There's hope for me yet then.....................

Truthfully, I have never noticed that, to the contrary............ however, I'm gonna look more closely now..........

Thailand has always had a close friendship with Scandanavian countries going back hundreds of years. Here are a few facts.

Aviation Pioneer: Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) played a foundational role in Thai aviation by co-founding Thai Airways International in 1960.

Travel Hub: Thailand is one of the top long-haul destinations for Scandinavians escaping the cold, with hundreds of thousands of Nordic tourists visiting annually.

Expat Communities: Vibrant Thai communities reside in Scandinavia, and thousands of Nordic nationals live full- or part-time in Thailand.

Children take most of their facial bone structure from their dads, with some other features from mom. When they hit their 20's, more of the certain genetics might begin to show, or even earlier.

My daughter here, along with my other 5, all have a lot of my genetics, but their mom's were all pretty, and the other 4 girls are also pretty and strong shapes. My son also, especially after he started lifting weights.

My daughter here started with curly hair like mine, and now it's mostly straight like her moms, but dark brown like mine, whereas her mom is typical Thai jet black. Rounder eyes like me, and light brown skin like mom.

My ex has black eyes, and I have green, with my daughter here having turned to brown, which was my eye color for many years until they turned green. My daughter was huge at birth at 8 months, larger than my other 5 who had western moms, so that's a difference, especially seeing her mom is slim and Thai. She is almost as tall as her mom at 9, but her mom's family are all tall for being Thais, so I'm thinking she will be the tallest of my children, as most are average in height.

One of my hopes is that she doesn't inherit diabetes, which my son, brother and a couple aunts and uncles had, along with my ex, her mom, and 4 brothers and sisters. Hard to tell until they're past teen age what they'll look like as adults.
