Yes, thats very true. There are many other towns, cities and so-called sea side resorts across the world that function in the same manner and cater exclusivly to expat tourists. Tons of girls get druged and raped on Thailand's islands, full ... Read More

Hi there - I'm looking at renting either an apartment or house in Siem Reap, and trying to educate myself on the things that are important that are not so visible. Can anyone please tell me their thoughts on: 1. Generators - I've seen the ...
1. Generator, i guess it means what it means; 24hrs electricity. 2. Some apartment buildings do have reserve water tanks. 3. Deposit being paid back ? Its tough to answer; its safer to go through a real estate agent as he can be your ... Read More

Probably the easiest way to settle in Nepal is to be of Indian nationality; the culture and language are very similar and you can use your currency in Nepal without even exchanging it; for example. I don't see why you should have any problem ... Read More
