Thailand is simply the most beautiful, exotic country on the planet, and the only one thatтАЩs truly and wholly livable. If it wenrтАЩt for Thailand, life on this planet, with itтАЩs too,too restrictive cultures, would be unbearable. ...

Thailand with itтАЩs tranquil, laissez-faire Buddhism and the lazy pace, has itтАЩs mind wide open, the way the rest of the world should be in so, so many ways. Thailand has perfect-hot!-weather and beaches and beautiful jungle and fascinatinf hill tribes and, hell, the whole culture is focused in pleasure, such as with itтАЩs incredible cuisine and massages. I never really knew what the word тАШexoticтАЩ meant until I came to Thailand. Plus it attracts the most fascinating, adventurous people in the world - outside of New York City - and they all end up washing back drinks at The Foreign Correspondents Club. Other people who live their dreams live here. I can relate to that.

I tend to agree. The Foreign Correspondents Club? http://www.fccthai.com/
