Have I told you that I  like Thailand lately? well I do. What a contrast to the noisy, pushy life that is China. I’ve heard a car horn once since I’ve been here for a few days and I’m sure it was justified. People talk to each other instead of shouting.In fact their voices are almost imperceptible. Life is lived at a very different pace and quite frankly I enjoy it. What’s not to like? well the answer is that in summer time the heat is intense and takes a bit of getting used to. But I guess if you have the option to retire to the aircon then you will be ok. 

At age 60 the Thai government make it quite easy foreigners to retire here and many do and I think I could be one in the future.The only downside is that I might have to go and get a real job for a couple of years to get a few more dollars 🙁
