The farmer's son

Hi to everyone. I have been reading your posts for ayear now and thought it was time to sign up. I appreciate all of your humor and help. I have visited Udon 4 times now and am in love with a young man from Kumhawpi. We were married (although not legal) in a ceremony in the village this past September. He is a wonderful person and as a gay man I am accepted by his family and others. I am 46 and he is 26. I am hoping to correspond with some folks who can assist me with cultural learning. As many of the people say, just when I think I have it figured out..I realize I don;t understand at all. I will be in Udon for Songkran festival would like nothing better than meet for a beer. My name is Scott and I live in Arizona USA. Soon I will live with my Thai husband in the Udon area. I just wanted to be up front with the gay issue although it has nothing to do with wanting to meet some farangs for friends. Thanks!

Hi Scott,
I for one have no problems with sexuality...so welcome to the forum and I hope you and your husband find the happiness you seek
If I am in town the same time as you I will happily meet up for a beer or two.....especially if you are buying

Welcome aboard!

What part of AZ are you from?

Well, I'm putting my damn nail polish back in the closet Green sparkle in case you want to borrow.

Welcome to the forum, all welcome of course. If we can deal with Cliff, we are tolerant to anyone. We just got some farang ladies for a different perspective, now going one step further. By the time we are done I may eventually be politically correct and never offend anyone. Nah, I doubt it. If we ever all get together, all genders and preference of which, it could be a battle for sitting on which side of the benchs at the night market. But I guess plenty of eye candy or candette for everyone.

Again, welcome.

Damn, I wonder if I'll still be the handsomess one at the meetings now............mirror mirror?

Hi Scott
Welcome to you. I'm one of the farang ladies mentioned above.
I would love to help you with the thai culture, but I'm quite new, only been in Thailand for little over a year myself. so I depending on these guys.
But I would like like to met you and your husband for a beer, when you arrive in Udon.

welcome scott, how many times have you visited Thailand ?

you can learn many things on here,a bit of this and a bit of that, even possibly a bit of cultural stuff.

Thank you to everyone for the welcome! I have been to Thailand 5 times ( 3 times in 2006) and will return in April for Songkran Festival and to open our market near Kumphawapi. I live in Phoenix, Arizona where it is a dry desert and quite different than LOS. I call Thailand everyday and miss being there so much. I lived in the village for 2 months and was accepted just fine. When our little market opens we are having a huge party with Isaan dancing and lots of food and drink. I hope I can get to know some of you and have you stop by and join us . Bye for now.
