Welcome to BOTM2



Welcome to the new BOTM2 blog.

BOTM2 carries on where its predecessor, Bangkok of the Mind, left off. I have abandoned the old blog after Google yanked my Adsense ads.

It starts life with 1938 posts, and 4756 comments, imported from the old blog.

Here, as I did there, I will write about the life I share in Bangkok with my Thai partner.

The opening post of the blog, which I wrote in April 2006, spoke earnestly about my desire to fit in and make a difference as a farang imbedded in Thai life.

Now that I have the tools to fit in – language skills, and 10 years’ worth of experiences to help guide my way – I am no longer so worried about fitting in, as my choices about where I spend my time, and with whom, will look after that process anyway.

Now, I just want to be happy, which can be harder than it sounds. However, I get better at it as I get older.

In this blog I set down that journey.
