korea
that would be close to the bottom of my list.....I would only go there in leg irons and cuffs.......why do you recommend it?
There are more than 1 million non Korean peope living in Korea now. Obviously, not everyone is like you.
Here are some of the qualifications that Korea can offers:
1) No one ask you to be a walking ATM
2) You don't hear any sick buffalo story
3) fast internet and WiBro (wireless broadband internet)
4) Efficient national health plan
5) Full democracy
7) Excellent infrastructures
8) Safety
excellent. i love it all
edit: I got a story. I'm in Korea if you haven't noticed from all of my posts. Less than a week ago I went out with 5 girls. They said I had to pay for everything. Then they said they were joking! I was prepared coming from Thailand. I didn't pay for anything. I also went home with one of them and there were no hidden fees.

EDIT: a better reply than mine below quoted for truth.
AVE KOREA!!!

Your still young. Travel a bit more and you'll find out how wrong you are..I Love Thailand...
I am not that young actualy !!!
I have travelled quite a lot but only ever lived in Thailand, I have no regrets at all like I previously said.
I Love Thailand.
If anybody remembers, I made posts like these 4 years ago. Now I love Korea. 4 years from now I will love somewhere else. I'm not from the UK but I love it the best

One songkran I saw three girls on a motorcycle hollering and having a good time. a tuk-tuk cut a short corner and crashed into them totalling the moto. Thais looking on were laughing. I don't care what the culture is but that is wrong.

Sorry to say - but club, big room & event DJ's are born ready to go (technical aspects are easily aquired), DJ school is for people who will rarely progress past the home environment, and a nice little earner for DJ's beyond their prime.
Hint - Checkout Pioneer or SAB Lighting Company in Thailand. - Buy a copy of "Sound & Stage" magazine for details.
Cheers,
Soundman.
once checked out one in Siam Square. Long story short, 4 months later saw the same guy still trying unsuccessfully to mix the same two trance records. The first time I showed him in 5 seconds without headphones. The second time I just looked through records while seeing him still trying to do it for 30 minutes. I don't recommend that place.

That's why I'm in Korea and never looked back. Here they have goals of being doctors and lawyers and that means they gotta speak good English and they want to travel. Thais don't wanna leave Thailand.
-
Just because America has out-of-state fees for colleges doesn't justify Thailand's farang fees for the zoo.
And say what you want about boycotting the country...Thailand is like heroin. When one addict dies of gets off, thousands of more join.

I know that this question has been asked previously but as I searched I couldn't find any phone numbers or actual prices.
I am looking to ship about 50 pounds of general stuff to the U.S. Currently I live in the Isaan. The stuff is not all books and the post office is quite expensive. I am not on a time schedule and therefore shipping via ship would be the best method for me.
Does anyone have any reccomended companies, price rates?
Thank you,
Noi
Once sent a suit. Less than 5 pounds and took two whole months to get from Chiang Rai to L.A. It was between 1,000 and 1,500 baht.

hate it. was 25 at the time. At first I was looking forward to it but it was too much. I would wear a rain jacket and they would lift it up, destroying my passport.
-
When ever approached by a seller, flirter, questioner I would say, "Pai hai pon". According to Lonely Planet Dictionary, that means "Piss off". Then I would add a subject like katoey, sopairnee, or stupid. They would then lose their face.

Japan to Thailand sounds like a step backwards. I'm sure you've been called a gai-jin(Jap for foreigner right?) but get prepared to be called farang like you don't belong there. You will miss the lack of nationalism in Japan to the overabundance in Thailand. You will miss nobody begging you for money because almost everybody in Japan is rich.
Read my posts for my Thailand to Korea transition. The more I'm here, the less I miss Thailand. I do miss 50 cents food, $5 two-hour massages, and yes $25 long-times, but I don't miss making $600 a month, being called foreigner and told how handsome I supposedly am just so I can get into a bar or buy something I don't want, seeing trannies and all the things I already mentioned in my old posts.

it'll be back to normal once the American diplomats leave. And to insert my usual Korea is better reference...come here and you can download 2 gigs in 5 minutes!

I was hoping to find good information here too. Before I was born, my father had two children in Thailand. He said he wrote to them in the '80s and they returned. My mom prevented him from further contact.
When I was in Thailand, my mission to find them failed. The address didn't exist and the phone number was one digit less. The name looked Thai but nobody recognized it. I try not to think about it. I didn't know one existed until I was 15 then I didn't know about the other until I was 20. This is why I hate when people ask if I have any brothers or sisters.

Means 30 years of age gap. SHAME. I'm saying this from my point of view. If I was his daughter, I wouldn't dare to look at him straight in the eyes anymore. Do you think she is in love with the old sick guy? awww... I think Im gonna cry.
Shame on you!
For your insults on a sick man. He deserves happiness as everbody else. The age gap is irrelevant - men always go for younger women.
I wish the OP good luck on this difficult path.
I like old.
Back to the topic...The thing that got to me was she quit her job after you started supporting her. A good lady keeps her work even after she finds a rich man. Thai women know western men leave wills. Issan women always see friends and family picked up by westerners sweeping them away like Cinderella and they get jealous wanting to keep up with the Joneses. Plus, 22 year old women from any culture are unpredictable. Just because they are from a university getting good grades doesn't mean they will be a good independent person. When I was 25 my cut off age for dating was 23. I'm 29 and it is still 23. I tried dating a 22 year old from California and she wanted to party all the time, party all the time, party all the time.
But as a fact, the last woman I was with in Thailand was a then-20 year old (I was 26) from Issan fluent in English and grew up in New York. She said we were just a fling and I wasn't the only guy and knew it but she said she gets criticized by her peers for not getting any money out of all the men she sees. I still keep in touch because she knows how to use a computer. She wants to go to Canada but only makes 11,000 baht a month and refuses to take money from her current boyfriend.

I do miss ESPN and English-speaking channels, but I suppose I could get a satellite dish if I was living here long-term.

Well, if you really like Thailand that much you may as well just come again!
read the whole thread first!

voted no feelings but clicked no vote. I used to write e-mails for girls posing as them saying they needed money. I got food and beer in return. But now I'm in Korea and hooked up with a Japanese girl that buys my drinks! Maybe she will give me money like they do to all my Black friends. That's racist.
-
The only reason I am staying around is that I have booked flights to go see her in a couple of weeks and don't know anyone in BKK or Thailand.
you will find somebody new in no time flat. You will say "Lek who??"
I bet she told you her name is Lek.

everybody read the whole thread first. He clarified when he was out alone everything was normal. That's because you looked like $$$$. When you were with your family, you are obviously permanently taken. Everything else is in your head. As for nobody calling your baby narak...the pretty puppy phase is over.
had to quote myself. This sums it all up. Nothing more, nothing less.
But my first time in Thailand was 1999. Then went again in 2004. I assumed people had gotten so more unfriendly but the thruth was in 1999 I was still under an illusion and plus 1999 was the '97-crisis period and people were happy for a human ATM. Then 2004 things were better economically and I was less stupid. Some years from now somebody will post here saying "Thais aren't as friendly as they were in 2009!!!".

Most of us are talking about mixed-Thais while the OP wants to know about a white Korean. In my Korea vs. Thailand thread we talked about how Koreans are worshipped in Thailand (even 10,000 people saw Wonder Girls at Siam Square!) and we know how they feel about the Caucasian male. Put it together your child will be LOVED!!!
anything else would be off topic

It makes me laugh. When I was there in '05 there was a big outrage that a man and woman were sleeping in the same bed on Thai Big Brother. Then there were people that thought Tata young and Girly Berry were too revealing. Thai Penthouse Magazine only shows topless. And you already know about the industry. Makes us wonder.

Sorry to disappoint you guys, most Thai woman married for love. Language is not a problem. There may be some difficulties initially, but it is not difficult to master. The big problem that you have to over come is culture difference.
"Most Thai women married (Farang) man for love"?? You've got to be joking. I once asked one of my young Thai men freinds what percentage of Thai women married foreign men primarily for money. His reply( and opinion)... 90%. No doubt many of the Farang gents on this forum are in the remaining 10%.
That's a Thai man's perspective even though I too asked some and they all said 90%. It's just that the majority of farangs hook up with the barlady. It's so much easier to go to a bar and ask "how much". But this case is of the internet dating site hook up.
When I would go to internet cafes I would see women registering on the sites, and they ALWAYS had somebody with them to write and translate for them. To the OP, just realize the lady isn't the only one looking at your messages, and if her English is as bad as it claims, she definitely didn't scan and post the pics by herself. But even fluent English speakers still claim they speak it bad.
If she is really an educated student, go for it. But something is still up for going to an online dating network. It's not like you came across a myspace which even George Washington has. Happy 277th birthday GW!

the prison thing is a rumor. it started by parents buying their kids pants extra sizes so it would take longer for them to grow out of them and become replaced.
but then again, seeing how gay Thai boys are, maybe the prison story is true for them.
