Photos from Isaan

I had a pack living behind my house in Chonburi. They literally reduced my sleep to a maximum of 5 hours per night, if I was lucky. I'm a dog lover and always have been but I can see why these dogs mysteriously disappear occasionally.

Excellent pictures, I flew back to Issan (Buriram) the other day, missed Songkran as I was holed up in my pad in BKK, I have airport driving duties in 5 hours (Buriram Airport) some of the in - laws are off on holiday to Korea.
I ve also been informed I have Index Living Mall / HomePro (Surin) duties to which I would rather stick pins in my eyes, but I should be getting treated to some nice food.

I was and still am at work so I missed it too. I will be spending a lot of time in those places soon while getting some ideas for my house.

I love the way of life in Isaan, despite some of the frustrations you face. I find the people and culture completely alien to that of BKK and the surrounding parts.

I spent a few weeks in Roiet and Kalasin recently and could have settled down for many more months if I didn't have to work.

Great pictures BTW.

You must be a glutton for football Sisaket - it must have been in the high 30's no?

Was roasting today , but the game kicked off at 7pm so it was OK, we were in the cheap seats with no cover lucky the thunderstorms held off...had showers on the way over from Surin Province this afternoon...

I used to watch a few Thai football matches and the heat destroyed me. Give me a pie and a Bovril, freezing cold toes at Rochdale any day!

I used to work in Mahasarakham. Sadly the pay is woeful but the people were by far the nicest I've met in Thailand.
