We would like to wish you a very Happy Christmas and a prosperous, safe, and healthy New Year.

We have settled in now and are enjoying our new life in our new Country, the Land of Smiles.
We have our Visa's and our bank accounts, an all electric car (I said I would never do that), our favourite
supermarket store and we have replaced the things we had to leave behind. The 'still on holiday feeling' is starting to fade.

We are missing you.

Communicating with Thai people is much more difficult than it was when we arrived in Cyprus. Ok in hotels and large shops in tourist areas but quite difficult elsewhere and it can cause misunderstandings. We have now got a portable translator.
When you visit a bank you take a ticket, sit down and wait to be called. Always seems busy and can be a long wait. Even worse at immigration offices. Need to get a Thai driving licence soon and that doesn't sound easy.

Is it all worth it?
Oh Yes.
The Thai's are lovely people and we feel welcomed and safe and there is plenty to see and do. The shops are good and most things seem a lot cheaper over here. It cost 250 euros to have my flightsim computer taken apart and packed properly for travelling - it cost 1000 baht (that is 27 euros) to put it together and test it by very competent technicians.

In the new year we will have a large country to explore and we look forward to telling you about it.
