hukster Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 My TGF is lives in Prasat a small city in Surin province north eastern Thailand, and your right they speak Kamir. The only expats i saw up there are German expats, only one or two. The nly reason i would not live up there is that there is absolutely nothing to do.

Thetyim Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 Don't worry mate, you will not be alone, I have been living here in Phrae for about seven years. My guess would be about 30 falangs retired here. What village does your wife come from ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
