Paul is a genuine guy. Love the stories as I just a bit younger and traveled SE Asia there and then. I've been shot twice being a doorman at Amsterdams biggest club. First in 1997 later in 2019 just before corona. Went straight back to North Thailand for easy quite life. But had to go back for surgery, recovering now. Anyways be back soon when found a good tennant for my house here. Thank you Pete. Love your interviewing. No rush and good questions. Cheers mate!

Brilliant, Paul is back. I've done a couple of KZbin videos up country in rural Isan (i'm very novice though). Sounds similar to where I go. So many things resonate with what I always experience, in particular tying to get around the village while avoiding the Laew Kaew....The music being blasted out by number 1 in the village through speakers too, often at 5 or 6am. I am literally the only farrang that goes there. It's quite a spectacle when I arrive. Lol. They are salt of the earth people. Most of the village elders are still using the sun and moon for time, there's no Internet and electric is sparse, certainly at night. It's like the UK 100 years ago. I absolutely love it! Another great interview.

In my case I tend toss a dart at a map or look for a remote place that the chances of encountering another foreigner is about nil. I kept a journal myself for years when I was wandering so I can certainly relate to Paul. I had to struggle myself for weeks when I first arrived here and I can,t say it was enjoyable but it forced me to learn the basics of speaking Thai. No regrets now looking back it made me a better person and made life here much more easy and enjoyable. Witnessed a lot of weird crap here over the years so can relate to Paul's stories.

I was living in Phuket town in the mid 80's. I often went to Nakon Si Thammarat and Thung Song. I thought some of the most beautiful Thai women I had ever seen were from around that area. The facial features and 'bone structure' of the face was completely different from the girls of Northern Thailand. I presume it was from the years of 'Indian' migration into the Southern Thai provinces and of course Malaysia? I enjoyed the area, beautiful rice fields around Pattalung . Nearest night out for Farangs may have been Songkhla. (Many working offshore for Unocal ). Great memories!

I Loved listening to this man story. Only god knows how many more stories he has to tell (like stories about the thai women he met in the 80s,). I would love to know where he ended up staying after a life of travel (I heard outskirts of Bangkok only). Him mentioning about the curious kids in the village touching his body is similar to what I experienced when I took a teaching job in Vietnam in a village 3 hrs away from Ho Chi Minh City in 2017.

Hi, Guys I enjoyed your interview with Paul. Such a fascinating character I could listen to his stories for hours. I was in a situation in Southern Mexico where I got caught up in some dodgy dealings. I will just say it was the import-export business. The boss man held a party in this three-story restaurant and we were on the top floor sitting around a round table. There were 8/10 people partying. From out of nowhere came this guy in a crash helmet he walked up to the boss and shot him twice in the head. His head exploded brain and his skull splattered everywhere including all over me. Pandamonium ensued. Everyone dived under tables I just grabbed my travel partner by the scruff of his collar and dragged him out of the building into our truck and we escaped. My friend could not speak he was in shock but he kept pointing at me. I was covered in the guy's brain. So I stop the truck and on the side of the road stripped and washed myself dumping the clothes and we went on our merry way. Take care. GOD Bless you and yours. M

Paul's story is very captivating, and he looks like he has been drinking LOTS of Rice Whisky/Lao Kao in his time, bless his heart. About the murder, it brings back a memory when I was a child, living in my old hometown, about a murder. I was quite young then, but old enough to know what's going on. The story is about a class of school teachers from another province came to visit my school teacher neighbor, and they went camping by the river, Pa Sak river to be exact. Anyway, this one young handsome teacher was probably flirting with a young woman from the other side of the river in a village called Song Korn. She was probably has already been spoken for or engaged to some guy from her village already, so, the next morning, the body of that young handsome school teacher was found floating down the river. He has been beaten to death and then thrown into the river. The murderer was never found, but most folks knew who did it. My point to the story is, don't mess with any woman when in the rural area, because some Thai men will kill to defend their honor. I am glad Paul is alive and I am sure he has many more stories to tell. I am glad that he didn't flirt with any rural women, or did he?

(You are never obliged to drink it). Applies to thailand and other countries i travelled to decades ago.😀
