About Me

Bangkok

Hi my name is Rick and I first came to the land of Smiles when I was offered a position in my company’s Bangkok office. I have now been living in here for the past 28 years with my Thai wife kanlaya and we are staying on the Eastern Seaboard. Since I have been here, I have learned a great deal about the Thai lifestyle, Thai culture, Thai food and what it means to be married to a Thai.

The purpose of this Blog is to share my experiences along the way. This information might be useful to anyone who at some point will either visit or make a new life here. I personally love living here in the land of smiles and hope to never leave.
