Nakhon Phanom Thai Visa Members

[Brigante7]

Any Thai Visa members living in Nakhon Phanom?

[Mr Conrad]

Hi,

I spend about four months of the year in Nakhon Phanom spread over five visits per year. I still work in the UK as not old enough just yet for my pension. I rent a house there with my girlfriend.

Just returned to the UK a few days ago, return flight booked for 21st November.

Don't know if this qualifies me as living there or not, but a frequent visitor for sure.

Regards

Mr Conrad

Hi Brigante7, I live near Nakhon Phanom but actually in Sakhon Nakhon province, in Kusuman village halfway between Nakhon Phanom city and Sakon Nakhon city. I still have to work so I do 2 months at work 2 months on leave, due back around 20th December. Why do you fancy a beer?

Hi Tubber, I've not moved to NP yet but my wifes family come from there and we are planning to move there in the next 12 - 18 month. I'll be in NP on the 7th February for 4 nights and if you are in the area and you have time then it would be great to meet up for a beer and maybe exchange vies on many things. I don't know the area very well but they live directly across the highway from the airport but we'll be staying in the River View hotel.

I just wanted to get an idea of how many ex-pats if any, were living in the area, feel free to send me a PM and we'll see if we can get something sorted out

Take care

Carlo

Jimmy, where exactly are you? Are you near Thalae, I have seen road signs for Siisongran just can't remember where. A nip sounds good, drop me a PM if you fancy it.

There is a crossroads about 15-20 Km outside Sakon Nakhon on the road to Nakhon Phanom which takes you to Si Songkhram, I think it is road 2132, but not sure.

Another way is off the Nakhon Phanom - NongKhai road about 10Km north of Tha Uthen.

Hope this helps.

I recently moved to Renu Nakhon with my wife. I see a few farang from my car or bike but haven't met anyone yet. Anybody out there??

[InSiSongkram]

I`m 45 mins approx from both Sakhon Nakhon and Nakhon Phanom would like a meet up some time with others members in either place if anyone is up for it. I know the thread is old but who`s still around?

Hello,

I have been visiting Nakhon Phanom several times. It is a very nice place with a few nice bars and restaurants. And I always like to walk besides the Mekong. In september I will return. At that time my house will be finished in Ban Nungpraduk: a small village, 20 K from Nakhon Phanom. I will live there with my girlfriend, her son and my brother. So two fresh farang from Holland will join the expat-community

Kind regards,

Marcel de Korte
