      More than worth it! Been living and visiting since i was 17, came as a nak muay, and the Thai bug caught me forever. Snakes, seen a few, biggest, well a massive python, would have been at least 5 m long, crossing the back road in Phuket, heading toward a small lake, and it had a massive belly, the other large one was my fav snakes of all, a King Cobra, it was majestic..

    Your home is far superior to that home. I know parts of Saraphi flooded, maybe it flooded there, 1yr seems a long time to build that house? Otherwise it's been sitting on the market for quite some time. The Chinese are buying up everything in Hang Dong, Chiang Mai atm just like they have in Laos😱

      @roadsandrevelations 23 дня назад
