A Long Return To Thailand – Part 3

by Inspector Cowboy November 27, 2010 Expat Life

I awoke at nearly midnight with Jeab in my arms. I felt totally worn out which I guess was a result of the excitement of the past few days, jet-lag and making love with Jeab. I lay there for a few moments my nostrils filled with the scent of Jeab’s hair, listening to the distant [...]

A Long Return To Thailand – Part 2

by Inspector Cowboy November 27, 2010 Expat Life

The flight from Heathrow with Qantas had been uneventful. I had sat next to an Aussie backpacker who had spent most of the 11 hour flight telling me about a pop festival he had been to regardless of the fact I was pretending to be asleep. Steve had been good to his word and I [...]

Nok was awake before me the following morning, she was putting my things in my suitcase more neatly than I could ever manage.

The next morning arrived like a volcanic eruption. I awoke just before midday to one of those only too familiar moments of confusion. What happened last night? Who is this in bed with me? Oh dear, there appears to be two people in this bed with me. Tuk and Meow showered as I lay on [...]

Why I will never date a Thai guy ever again

by Space Monkey September 28, 2010 General

Before I begin.. This is based on my experiences and those of some of my friends. This is by no means the definitive guide to Thai men and I am not so ignorant that I don’t recognise that there are good and bad men and women in all cultures. I know, as I’ve dated my fair share [...]

Thai Women and Money

by Anonymous June 20, 2010 Relationships

Having dated my fair share of Thai women over the years one common trait seen in many of them is an inability to exercise financial discipline.
