Hello All,

My wife has recently bought some land in Dan Khun Thot, not too far from Korat. There is a chance in the next couple of years that we may build a house there. Is anybody familiar with this area? If we did move there, it would be for peace and quiet but would be happy if there was a local watering hole or somewhere to go to speak a little English. We currently live in BKK.

Thank you

HI i have a farm there about 7klm from dan no watering holes yet i have been going there for 15 years good place not much crap around quiet i live in sydney with TW/3girls we holiday each year for 4weeks april will move there full time when i retire in 2 years when i turn 55 I find its central to go many places in the bush 40 min korat 3hr bkk i think with the farm no time to get board we have 150 rai i let the inlaws use at the moment i have seen a couple of farangs around town but not many Germans i think but will be happy to have a beer or 3 when i come there i have a dam that could be the water hole regards russell

Hi Russell, It looks as though we are working on a similar time with you moving there and me building. When we get nearer the time I will PM you.

sounds good to me ps did you get afarm or house block regards russell

We have 5 rai roadside for the prospective house and veggy garden etc but it backs onto more farm land that would be available at a reasonable price. I have always been into farming and owned tractors etc back in the UK when I was a boy. I would certainly be interested in picking up more land for a small holding type deal, but I'll see how the initial building project pans out first. Hopefully, I wouldn't have to rely on the profits but it would be a great hobby

I have been living 8 km out of Dan for several years an been comming there for over 12 years. No bars in Dan, but in the last couplee of years the amound of farangs has increased a lot. I can't go into town without meeting/ seeing several. a lot of Germans, some English, Swedish,american. Most are pensioners but also some who have farms,work in the oil industry or teach.

Hi Aussieruss,

I live in nong lamang village about 8km from Dan on the road to Si Kiew. So our pigfarm is about 15 km from yours (seem to remember from the farming forum that you have cows?) Are the onlaws running the farm?
