Re: Ask Degen Anything About Living In Thailand
Ok dude, so i'm arriving around Nov 10. And i'll be backpacking for a month (unless I find some awesome place). You recommend staying first night at that backpackers mecca place then just go out and do whatever?
I think a FAQ would be nice at this stage, on a website, in your blog or anywhere (it's going to be a PITA to do though). |

Re: Ask Degen Anything About Living In Thailand
[ QUOTE ]
Does anyone have pics of their house/apartment? I hear numbers thrown around a lot, but it would be cool to see exactly how 2+2ers are living, and have a more concrete idea of what's possible for X amount of money. [/ QUOTE ] I have pictures, but don't know how to post them. If someone sends me an email address, I can send it to them. Also, I have servants quarters in my house if any of you are looking to rent a room. LOL |

One thing I'm surprised is that no one has mentioned the fact that farang can't own property. [/ QUOTE ] So if you lived there you have to rent? That does sound like a bummer. Whats the point of an investor visa (or whatever that was called)? |

 Also, as a brag, I'm including a picture of my puppy, Panang.

Re: Ask Degen Anything About Living In Thailand
There are farang in prison. My friend was penpals with one, in addition to going to one every once in a while just to visit people and try to give them a lift. All were in for drug crimes that I heard him talk about.
