Hua Hin Forum

Well I'm all set at Heathrow and it's wheels up on my new life in 3 hours! Going through pretty much every emotion under the sun at the moment, excited, nervous, happy, sad but can't wait to start my new adventure. Many thanks to all that have offered me wise words on this forum and if you see an id...

read all the thread with interest, then hit the bit where you are taking a girlfriend here. good luck with that as it has been the downfall of many a man who came to Thailand with a partner. Avenue 88 is fine to get your barings and only really 5 minutes from town She's Thai, however lived in the U...

You've got a long way to go until your back foot reaches my extremes [/quote]

As a Norwich fan for 45 years I feel your pain brother.........

I am 48 so retiring pretty early worked hard all my life so it's a bit of a journey into the unknown hence the need to find a running club, gym, bar to watch the footy, golf club etc. Don't want to be too far out of town but want to find a pretty nice house once we have spent enough time to be sure ...

Well finally I have managed to sort everything, I've handed my notice in and I'm all set to touchdown on my new life on April1st. I have rented a pool house at avenue 88 for 3 months while I look about to find my ideal house and location. Have found this site very helpful in making my decisions so f...

Well looks like I'm all set and will be heading to Hua Hin on the 18th of March. Looking at staying at Baan San Dao condo to start with while I look around for a permanent residence. Does anybody know anything about this place? Would be interested in any views good or bad. I remember walking past it...

Been going since 1970 when I was 5. Seen Norwich at Wembley twice and also at Milan, Munich and Arnem. Have had a season ticket every tear since 1988 and go to every away game. Will keep my home season ticket when I move to LOS next year and get back to games whenever I can

Loads of clever Forest fans here if your from Notts. Norwich well that's another story :D Wow that's 4 words you never normally see in the same sentence, loads, clever, fans and Forest but unfortunately I'm a Norwich fan hoping there may be 1 or 2 others about in Hua Hin but won't be holding out mu...

As you have already intimated, rent first so you can give both areas (CA and HH) a good look to see if they offer what you want. You said about being near to some bars and restaurants - is that walking distance or by motorbike/car/taxi? Obviously the north side of HH or Cha Am will be a bit quicker...

None of those places appeal to me. Hua Hin/ChaAm is building up too rapidly now and getting congestested especially on weekends. If you like Chang Mai, better be prepared for traffic and more traffic like BKK. Pranburi is a more laid back option and still close to Hua Hin for shops and services. We...

Thanks, interesting food for thought appreciate the feedback on Cha Am not been before but heard some good things will try to spend some time there in June.

Not sure about Chiang Mai beautiful as it is it's a little too far from the beach and a little too close to the in-laws

Thanks for the advice Big Boy and Bonnie Lass, Definitely going to rent to start with and will probably do so for the first 12 -18 months. A bit torn between Cha Am and Hua Hin at the moment so hopefully renting will help me decide. Will also try and make the quiz in June if there is one so I can me...

Hi, My name is Nick Im 48 and about to embark on my dream and leave the UK to live in LOS permanently from next Jan. have visa all sorted but would appreciate some good advice on best area to live where to meet like minded individuals in the Hua Hin area to watch the footy etc. I am pretty familiar ...
