Introduction
I am coming from Germany, living now 15 Years in Isaan. I have written some books about Thailand and Isaan, published in Germany and Thailand. As my books are written in German Language, I have often been asked by Farang not speaking German, to translate my stories in English. I did this, and take the occasion to publish part of my translatid stories here in this blog. If you like them you can write to me.
I joined expat.com on 12 February 2009.
