Have you ever wanted to move to Thailand? Many have but few have done it, in this episode dana and Mike break down how they did it, why they did and what lessons you can learn from them. When you move to Thailand there are a lot of things to consider like visa, where you will live, how you will live, and what you will do for work when you get here, even if you can legally work once you are here. Deciding where you want to live is another thing to consider, do you want to live in the Big Mango? the best city in the world, Bangkok? do you want to live further south directly on some of the best beaches in the world or do you want to live up north in the chill hipster paradise of Chaingmai. People want to move to Thailand for a number of different reasons, they might move to Thailand to retire, they might move here to get away from the US, UK, Canada, or some other country, some move to Thailand alone, some more to Thailand with Family, some move to Thailand to train Muay Thai and become the next John Wayne Parr. But no matter what your reason you are going to want to find out more info about how to move to Thailand, and that is what this podcast episode is about. it's all a dream, but it can also be your reality.

Recently the Thai government amended the Child Protection Act pushed by the Education Ministry. These vague, at best amendments seem to make it a crime for female students to wear short skirts, something Thai universities are known for the world over.  The reason that many sites have reported for the amendment is to help protect female students from sexual assault. Of course, it seems like a fair take to blame the female student's style instead of the actions of the one committing the sexual assault.  dana and Woody dive into this subject head-on.  You can find more Bangkok Strange at https://www.bangkokstrange.com
