I can answer most questions about travel and living in Thailand. This includes food, culture, people, cost of living, and the different regions of Thailand. I can't answer questions about the far south of Thailand, politics, Buddhism.

Experience
I have lived in Thailand for the past almost 7 years. Before that I came here as a soldier and trained with the Royal Thai Army over a 6 year period. I have traveled extensively and maintain a website about the province I live in.
