Thailand The First Ten Years

Thailand The First Ten Years: Experience the Adventures of growing a family in Thailand. Have you wondered what it would be like to live in Thailand?Living as a Westerner as you raise your family with a Thai Wife with Buddhist beliefs. How about building a house, getting married, working in a rice field, going to the Wat to be worshipped by the monks, and meeting the in-laws as they are dissecting a pig in their house. Shopping at outdoor markets, driving your motorbike everywhere, celebrating life inside the village, dealing with hospital visits, funerals and building a business, and so much more. My name is Brian Jones, and ten years ago, I woke up one day to discover that I was now growing my life in Thailand. How did this happen? Like all great stories, it starts when I met my wife, Siriyakon, and my daughter Nara. We venture off into so many adventures together, each one leaving you laughing, a sense of wonderment, and thinking you can really do that?Yes, in Thailand, it is the land of smiles, and they are readily available everywhere. Each day is met with a celebration of life in so many ways. It could start with announcements at 6 am throughout our village, cows and buffalo walking to the rice fields, kids in uniforms riding their bikes to school, putting the rice on feeding the animals, or getting the papaya salad ready for a gathering with a little Thai whisky Thai lottery and the latest ghost experience. Get a glimpse of Thailand life through my eyes as I maneuver my way as a Foreigner in a land with so many traditions. You will have a great time discovering a culture you only thought you knew.
