Damn Dodgy Pikeys!
Personally, it was all put on a plate for me. My Dad had built a very nice villa and the offer to come stay/live was there while it was being built. When i split up with my then GF of 8 years in the UK it was an easy decision to make.
The fact that my brother is also here and my dad not far away in Hong Kong/Shanghai also added to the comfort factor. I have never been back to the UK once as my other family members visit regularly.
It's funny - I thought it would be hard to settle in another country but the first year just feels like you are on an extended holiday and then everything gradually becomes normal to you.
Whilst i am not like Ototto, I even remember wanting a farang GF when i first came here (well before i got here for good but hey..!) but he has a point in thats it IS nice to have so much easy to reach sex around you, but it is not the main reason I came to Thailand.
