Hi, I've been on for a while, I am an Australian retired Naval Officer and intend teaching English in Thailand. I am a Thai linguist and worked at the Aussie Embassy from 1996-98. I find this site most helpful and you guys all seem to be quite laid back so I shall continue to enjoy visiting Thai Visa.

Quick hello to all, its nice to be able to keep a link open between trips.

I work a fair amount in Bangkok and KL.

Trying to do business with Thai and Malaysia, I must have the patience of a herd of saints and an unlimited life expectancy :o but we do eventually make some headway.

Due back in September, cant remember why now, its changed so many times.

Thailand has got a little bit of my soul, so I persevere.

Hope to get to know you all in a nice virtual way.

Hello there, all ThaiVisa members and ThaiVisa guests wherever you are! I have actually been a member of this forum for a little while, but haven't noticed this topic until today (how could I miss it? :o ).

I have browsed through many a topic in the forum as a guest for more than a year, so it was a natural step for me to become a member myself. My personal opinion is that ThaiVisa is an almost endless and extremely valuable source of Thai-related knowledge, and I will do my best to contribute as best as I can.

Some personal info: I am a Swedish man at the age of 39. I am married to a Thai woman, and we currently stay in Bangkok. I have been in Thailand for more than three years (accumulated time) since the year of 2000, and right now I am trying to decide if I should try to get a decent job in Thailand, or if I should go back to Sweden to continue my career as a medicinal chemist at a pharmaceutical company there. Yeah, I know, most people would advice me to go back to coooold Sweden, but, as you know, Thailand is strongly addictive :D .

Anyway, I really like this forum, and think that it is getting better and better (NOT meant as brown-nosing :D ). Keep up the good work!

Regards

... but, as you know, Thailand is strongly addictive :D .

Yes, Thailand can be very addictive.

:o

Welcome to the forum 'chemist'... also welcome to other new members 'midasthailand' and "Cobalt60".

:D

Taoism: shit happens

Buddhism: if shit happens, it isn't really shit

Islam: if shit happens, it is the will of Allah

Catholicism: if shit happens, you deserve it

Judaism: why does this shit always happen to us?

Atheism: I don't believe this shit

Hi Addict, is that your real face or are you deliberately imitating me? :o

Sawatdee -

I have been posting for a little while and just noticed this thread. I came to the forum to research retiring in Thailand and have learned much. I am still ambivalent over retiring as soon as possible, or waiting until things are more secure. It will be more of a series of extended vacations initially, anyway. We are not even sure exactly where in Thailand we would like to be.

So, more research will be necessary! The yearly trips to SEAsia must continue!

It's the prudent thing to do. :o

Best,

Oldboy

Sawadee Ka,

I've been a TV member (lurker) for sometime and been coming to KP and Samui for 5 years (from Australia). October I'll be saving myself the plane tickets and hanging my hat on KP for a while. I look forward to chatting with other girls on the forum and maybe even have a catch up one day.

TV is a great reference and kind of lifeline to Thailand when I've been away, so thanks everyone.

Welcome, and glad to have you :o Good luck and don't hesitate to ask for advice, most posters are quite nice and sensible :D

Hi All!

I just happenned to bump into this forum and to be honest I'm struggling with my tears at the moment.

My parents and I moved to Bangkok when I was 2 and a half years old. I went to thai kindergarten (I was the single farang-looking kid there :D ), then to Ruamrudee Intl. School. My parents sent me back to Hungary when I turned 13 and I'm still not able to live with this trauma. I felt and lived as a Thai person. I miss Thailand so much! :D

I very much hope that I may once again stay for years in Thailand.

I'm looking forward to get to know other members here.

Now I'll go look around in other topics too. :o

Criss,

What a touching introductory post! :o

Welcome to the forum. You'll find all types, stereotypes and unusual people on these boards, and we tend to find some harmony in that for most of us, from wherever we are and whatever we do, we have a deep love and/or fondness for Thailand, her people, her culture.

Welcome!

Kayo

is it just me or is the phone sytem (calling from the U.S. to pattaya) getting worse and worse? very difficult to get through these past few months

Hello All

I have been living in Isaan for 7 years, while working in Africa, Always found this site informative, so why not join.

Hope to have some humourous and intelligent exchanges.

I'm planning our honeymoon to be in thailand, just thought I'd join this forum to see if maybe we can plan it out even better.

Hello,

Just wanted to tell you great site. I have read some interesting posts here.

Thank you

Hello,

I have been living in Thailand for about 3 and a half years. I have been posting on another forum but I got fed up of the flame wars on there, so I decided to grow up and join thaivisa :o .

Hello

We are Andy & Liz, planning to visit Thailand next August & here to find as much information about places to visit, local customs, history & dive sites. Meet new friends. :o

Hello All,

I've been reading the forum for a while now and haven't said sawadee, I'm currently working in the states -accounting :o - and am hoping to have a try at teaching in LOS sometime this Autumn. I've only been there for a holiday (twice), but have been thinking about a longer term stay there for some time. Hope to meet a few members when I'm over!

Any New Yorkers around the forum?

Hi Everyone, I to am new to this board but have been looking at others. I will be going back to LOS in 1 weeks time after a 2 .5 year abscence due to family Thais pardon the pun. My wife is out there also we have been married for 9 years so I am not entirely new to the scene. Will be spending time up North and also in Pattaya hope to see some old friends and meet new ones.
