I am unfortunately stuck here in Farangland, but don't cry for me yet. Regular trips bank to the LOS and a Thai wife keep me sane and eating food that is both aroi and paed mak mak! And one day soon we will be back to Thailand full time, but not I think until the U.S. dollar strengthens a bit. Until then I have to be contented with the occasional trip and reading wonderful blogs like yours. I’m so terribly jealous Michelle, you are leaving the dream and good for you!

I've been living in Bangkok, Thailand for 4 years and don't plan on ever going back to the West. Love it here. You should come over. It's especially great for Western women as there aren't a lot of us here, so the Thais love us :-) Steve is correct, it can be very cheap here.

Wow! I'm flattered that you chose my post as your favorite for the week. Thanks so much and I hope your readers like it as well. Just for reference the current exchange rate in Thailand is 34 baht = $1.00. Take care and maybe I'l see you one day in the Big Mango! --Steve Hi Mary Jo!
