ttl Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Just 2 months since my wife Nalinnipa arrived to settle here from New Zealand on our small farmlet,7.5kms north of Nikhom Kham Soi on highway 212.We beleive there are some folks in the areas north and south of here but have not met anyone yet,for a chat in English,.It sure is not easy for me in Thai. So if you are out there,and would care for a coffee or whatever,please call in.Our house number is 160 Highway 212,just past the water tower on the right,you may notice our flag,and sign stating KIWI HERE We have a lot to learn about our neighbourhood,and looking foreward to developing some mutual friendships. Have a nice day Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirchai Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Do you sell cheap KIWIS there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sezzo Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Vince, There are quite a few english speaking people in Leong Nok Tha. A friend used to live up that way and we went to a party there once. Met quite a few poms there. Maybe go for a wander around there. Not sure where they might congregate though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riepan963 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Maybe 2 years ago I stopped off at the Nikhom night market on the way back from Yaso. At a convenience store on the corner of the main shopping street which goes north from the 212, was a group of around 6 foreigners so I had a quick chat. I remember there were a few Nationalities there; one Jim from the UK, an Italian guy who had a business/restaurant in the area and a Scandanavian. Don't know if they still meet there for a beer and a chat in the early evening, but it may be worth checking out..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because nowadays there are more foreigners settling in this little corner of Isaan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
