My expat journey














Amphoe Bang Phli, Samut Prakan, Thailand
Back to Thailand again, this time i've taken serious actions about settling down with my wife, i will start to make my legal papers for resident rights and will be looking for a new career soon.
Almost everything, big city but following orders and laws, people queue here.

Small country nice people.
Everything expensive, work is hard. the country is drowned in a political regional issue. the economy is low.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
I come here in a business trip to make some legal papers while i enjoyed some tourism and nightlife
The city life amazing infrastructure, free buses very moderate city many shopping malls and skyscraper great restaurant serves various food asian western and middle eastern food. Many local shops like china town and jalan alor street food.
Many tourists from china and india, don't have manners walking in the middle of the lines, don't stand in queue shout in hotels corridors at 4 am.

Living with my partner, looking for a job to settle in Thailand while exploring many great places.
The nightlife, the culture, the people are usually so nice even to foreigners
The food i didn't adapt the Thai food

Phatthaya, Chon Buri, Thailand
First time for me in an Asian country exploring Thailand was amazing the islands the walking street the culture the nightlife. It's the heart of the exotic life style
Walking streets, islands white sand the beaches, cheap very cheap local shops, great massage, amazing great people value tourists and accept bargains.
There are some frauds, i didn't like Thai food but i know many ppl like to eat it while i just like to eat Tom Yam the rest i don't.
