Thailand: Thailand and Expats

Categories: East Asia, Thailand, Ethnicity & Race, Ideas

Thailand has a good number of foreigners who decide to settle down in the country. One such expat asks [1] “So where is home? Can I, as an expat call this home? Does that make me an expert on Thai Culture? No.. infact the longer I’m here the less I seem to understand it… But Chiang Mai is home. Unfortunately I will always, always be the farang and sometimes that really annoys me.”. Farang is the word Thais use to describe foreigners.
