Welcome to Thai Visa. I'm in Kap Choeng about 180 Kilo from you. I know the adjustment of the rural life. You are on the correct form for you location. Here is anothe link for you to look at that may be of help.

Petergreet life is a learning curve. The biggest thrill is finding out for yourself. Start of with morning walks and aknowledging locals as you go along. Extend that walk, or change route. In a few days you'll feel comfortable and begin to feel at home. Don't rush things and try to slip into a Thai mentality. There's always tomorrow. Eventually you'll blend in and feel part of the community. That applies to the local forang one also.

All good advice.

I was in Srisaket the other week for the first time and had an enjoyable afternoon (& meal) at Franks Pizza Restaurant in Srisaket. I really nice guy and knowledgable about the area.

Just a thought. He posts on the link Gotlost suggested too.

I moved to Sisaket 6 months ago stayed there 4 months and have been back home for 2 months now before going back next month.

I like it there, have a Big C, Makro and Tesco Lotus so most daily needs are covered. I agree on Frank's only been there a couple of times but nice guy and good food.

Overall nice place never had any problems with anyone and I am really looking forward to getting back.

If anyone can PM me the link that were removed I will appreciate it
