Doing the same with German food will create a Farang-sized ugly witch, so see the good side of it

However, even in Germany it should not be very difficult to get all the ingredients, as you can buy the fish sauce, chilis and the rice at an Asian (or even specialized Thai) shop in bulk and it will keep for a long time; the Thai food they eat normally is not very sophisticated and with simple ingredients.

If you do not know any shops in your neighborhood, it should not be very difficult to find people with Thai spouses within a radius of a few km from your home and they can help you with directions; from my experience, there is an incredible number of Thai girls in Germany. Also a good place to ask would be German courses at the next Fachhochschule, participants there should be able to help you on.

Beware however, together with good advice your GF might very easily pick up a lot of bad habits (like gambling) from them as well, so keep an eye on it; also an experience, luckily not a personal one...

Thanks hansel, as you can read in my post we have a lot of asia markets here and i really enjoy the thai food. As we lived in frankfurt/main years ago it was easy to get the food in the asia markets, but just wracked sometimes my nerves driving around to get the food in that traffic jam, as she was really in almost no way to eat anything else than thai food. And in one point you are right, gambling is a really bad habitt they can easily take from their friends. This has been the reason i finished the relationship after one year. She didnt gambled my money but a lot of hers.
Now i have another GF wich i met last year in LOS. And i am just thinking about if the food will get the same "problem". But we are also well prepared with Asia markets in my new home town. So its not difficult to get the food anyway. also Mannheim is a smaller city than frankfurt and the traffic jam is not that bad. But i also stick to my italian food and dont want to chance it completly. I will see what happens and hope she will like italian food too. Not the pizza but i like my pasta, mmmmmmmmh.
I think the social part of all she wont have to miss.One of my best friends and his woman are thai and we meet many times a week. So i believe this will be covered. I am not sure to stick together with other farang thai couples, i am not a thai maniac, who does need everything thai all my day. My tilak and my thai friends are enough.
