I have not stayed in Thailand for any great length but i still want to respond:

- how has living in Thailand changed you as a person? your priorities, your thinking?

I like the politeness & respectfulness that Thai people show in their daily life, even if maybe its an exterior sometimes. To maintain that is very nice practise and feeling. I really have a melting heart for very old Thai ladies - they are soooo Sweet and kind always and always working still.


- what is still very farang in your thinking or behaviour?

I am not sure I can consider myself farang. But I still cannot drink the lengths at which some Thai people can

- what is Thai in you?

My mai pen rai attitude, and much more.

- what are the things you wish you could adopt, but you can't?

Speak Thai. Be responsible and be a child almost at the same time at a click of a switch. Actually, I think I am or could be so, but this corporate world is really spinning me out of my personality!

- what are the things you don't want to adopt, and you are determined to keep your farang ways?

Too much social discipline ... you know the commitment to a never-ending family and relatives... I am running away from that in my own home... cannot handle it in city life. Suddenly, people pop up at my home. QUalification: They are from my native village and I or even my parents may have never met them... Its ok sometimes, but its hard to maintain this life now...
