Hello there!

Hi,

My name's John, 30, I hope to be moving to or around NST ASAP. I am in UK at the moment. It sounds like a cliche, I visited NST recently and now I want to escape and teach English there, but I hope it's not going to end in tears! I have a wonderful woman there to assist me so should be easier than usual...

Just saying hi, catch you later!

John.

Hi John - and welcome to the forum too!

Just a word of caution, NST, or Thailand is not all a bed of roses. I notice you are 30, still fairly young. I'd do a bit of research first regarding working, schools etc before coming over and very importantly, don't burn any bridges in the UK as once the reality of living here sets in, some people realize it's not for them.

Anyway, feel free to ask any questions and I'm sure someone will answer them for you.

Or give you misleading jumblings. NSTers are a twisted bunch...

Thanks for the advice, believe me I have some doubts/concerns/panic attacks about doing this! I don't intend on going until I have secured employment there anyway, but I don't really have any roots and I intend to marry my girl in NST so I guess it's what I'm going for. Thanks for the greetings!

Well, there is this school that will always hire someone...

If not, wait till April when all schools are hiring... Can you teach maths, PM me...

What age group do you prefer? Primary? PM me...

You be from Bristol then? How's the weather?

It would probably be a better idea to try and get your job here rather than from the UK. You'd be able to 'survey' things better if you know what I mean. Best times for looking for work are Sept/Oct and even better when there are usually more vacancies, March/April as the academic year starts in May.



ps: The Nakhon gals are the best!

Well actually at the moment I live in Taunton, but have lived in Brizzle recently. Weather, of course, is rubbish...

Ah, good! There is a distinct shortage of 'cider' here. When you bringing some over then?

"Nothing ventured, nothing gained." Good luck!

Hello there

Promote the place we live because we want more people to come and live here because we have no fiends well we have friends but we only pretend we like them and would be happy to try new friends because we are lonely so please come and try our crappy town and keep us company and no I don't like punctuation

Nakhon is crap, it is poo poo

So tell us where it is nice too live, where is the place that is so much more beautiful than this place we call home?

You shold find atleast 2 since you have lived in NST for a few years now!!! (Is it that bad) why don't you just leave then?

I don't live anywhere near you! wht did i move?? now thats a better question to ask!!

I can guess why you moved, are you trying to tell me that the place you moved to is so much better???

That would be a fun story!!!

Snowflake I don't want to be picky about typos but a common error that I see you often making is the use of 'to' and 'too' please refer to this for more help:
