I interview Simon, a seasoned expat with years of experience living in Thailand and the Philippines. In this video Simon shares three stories that offer insights into the realities of expat life for some in Southeast Asia.
The first story delves into the unpredictable nature of life in Pattaya, Thailand, as Simon recounts an encounter with a man who once did well as a bar owner for 18 years, only to tragically lose everything and find himself homeless, sleeping on the beach and relying on begging for survival.
Next, Simon recounts a gripping tale of expat conflict in the Philippines. This story sheds light on the cultural clashes and tensions that can sometimes arise within expat communities abroad.
Finally, Simon exposes the darker side of expat life with a cautionary tale of a scammer operating in the bustling streets of Pattaya, Thailand. Through his personal experiences, Simon reveals the cunning tactics employed by opportunistic individuals and the devastating consequences they can have on unsuspecting expats. #thairishtimes #philippines #thailand
