Hi all! Just wondering if there's any "Farang" in Phitsanulok? I moved here at the end of May and after the excitement of the very beginning, I'm getting pretty bored now! We could meet up!
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Serena :D

Got a good job here. I knew it wouldnt have been easy living in Thailand but I'm finding it harder than I thought!!! Phitsanulok is a nice place actually but it's a bit difficult even getting around, none seems to speak English...I just to be more patient I guess! Why are you moving to Thailand?

Phitsanulok Expat Meet-ups

Hi All,
The English speaking Phitsanulok ex pats meet twice a week, firstly Wednesday lunchtime at the Topland Hotel restaurant on the 1st floor from 11:30am, secondly on a Friday night at Katz Bar which is located in the street behind the "Old" downtown bus station from 7pm. Wives/Partners welcome at both venues.

Phitsanulok

Hi, I am moving to Wang Thong in November this year, it is good to know that there are regular expat meetings, I will certainly be there and join in, can you tell me do many expats attend on a regular basis? I am also building a house, I have the plans ready but need a reliable builder Can anyone reccommend on, English speaking would be good, but if not my Thai wife can translate.

Hi Milto,
I'm currently in UK but will be back in Phitsanulok also circa November.

My house is around 20 mins from Wang Tong and I go there in the evening a couple of nights a week with my partner and/or with a fellow Brit, the ladies enjoy a meal while we have a few drinks.

FYA, the Topland expat Wednesday lunchtime is still happening where you get between 6 to 12 guys and their ladies attending, but the Friday night meet at Katz bar has ended due to the bars closure. I will advise of new venue when known.

Regarding the builders, we had a very good guy build our house, but he lives around 1 hours drive from you. My Mrs will see if he's available/willing to do it.

Do you play golf at all Milto as there's a few of us who play golf once or twice a week?


Regards Colin

Colin,

Thanks for your response, I am also from the UK but live and work in Bahrain. I am buying several acres of Mango plantation and build a home on the land also, it is adjacent to the home and land that my wives parents own. I am please that you are only 20 mins from Wang Thong it will be good to have fellow Brit nearby.

If you can obtain details of builder I would appreciate very much.

Thanks
Martin

Hi Martin,
Our place is south of Wang Thong, on the 11 towards Sak Lek for 10 minutes then there is a left turn towards Noen Maprang, we are then 10 minutes down that road. Whereabouts are you?

The builder comes from Noen Maprang and my Mrs will try and contact him, but he will probably want to know a few things such as the size of the proposed house also is it 1 or 2 storey and especially if you choose him to build it when will you want the work to start etc.


Regards Colin

Welcome to PHS!



Hi Charlie,
Welcome to Phitsanulok!

I won't be there until November but there are a number of English speaking ex pats who meet up at the Topland Hotel restaurant (up 1 floor) every Wednesday from 11:30 - 12:00 onwards.

Also they meet up every Friday night, but the bar they were using has closed, so not sure where they meet up at the moment?

If you are in the area you could always drop in and find out. Might be quicker than waiting for an answer here.. Alas I haven't lived in the area for years.
