Hi Sara,

Nice to have you as a new friend. Texan eh? I'm from Houston and was working in Kuwait on a 6 week on 2 week off schedule where they would fly you home for break. It took 3 days out of my break time just to fly home. Some of the guys on my crew convinced me to try Thailand and I ended up moving here, at the company's thankful cost. Like many of the expats that come here, I fell in love, married a local gal, had two kids and built a house. Put the kids through university, the oil crunch happened so I lost my job, lost the house and after 20-1/2 years of marriage, lost my wife. So now I'm living the single man's life with my four cats, four kittens and a freshwater aquarium. Moved from ChaAm to Prachuap Khiri Khan a year ago and have many new friends. It's much more scenic and inexpensive here and nowhere near as hot and humid as Houston although I do miss it, especially live rhythm & blues, The Hideaway bar (my local), old friends and great food. Where 'bouts in Texas y'all from gal?

All the best,

David
