How did I end up here? I suppose I can ask myself that, but deep down I know the truth. I was looking for something different, something to remove me from the drudgery of day-to-day life. I’d already been to Thailand, already married a Thai, and we had a son, and we were living in…
Now Derek was quite a timid man. He didn’t really have any personality. He wasn’t one of those guys who walked into a room and lit it up. He wasn’t one of those guys that people were keen to get to know. He wasn’t one of those guys that attracted the ladies. He was a…
I bought my first condo in Thailand, more specifically in Bangkok, back in 2009. That first condo was the start of my transition from a UK centric to a Thailand centric investment portfolio. The first time I was in Thailand was 2 years before this. That’s when I met my wife who was from Thailand….

I met Anne (not her real name, of course) on the dating site Thai Friendly back in late February of 2024. We seemed to hit it off from the start as she was very responsive and had a good story to tell. She was 34 and had a 10-year-old son. Her parents died in a…
The first time I went to Thailand was for a lad’s holiday a couple of years ago now, just after the end of COVID. And I had one of those epiphany type moments when I was there. I worked really hard in England, and this allowed me to go to Thailand and take a few…
