Marblehead Posted April 10, 2017 Hello thana, and welcome. Your membership is approved and we're happy you found your way to us. We look forward to accompanying you on some of the way that you still have to go. Please take the time to read the two posts pinned at the top of this Welcome page and take a look at the forum terms and rules. This covers all you need to know when getting started. For the first week you will be restricted to ten posts per day but after that you can post as much as you like. Also, until you’ve posted fifteen times in the forums, you’ll be a “Junior Bum” with somewhat restricted access and will be allowed only two private messages per day. Good luck in your pursuits and best wishes to you, Marblehead and the TDB team Hi thana, We welcome people of all cultures. In your case you will be required to say something nice about Tony Jaa. You are welcome to jump right in ongoing discussions, revive an older thread, start a new thread of your own, or start a discussion in the "Newcomer Corner" sub-forms to expand on your introduction or ask general questions to help you get started. May you enjoy your time here. Marblehead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeekingSilence Posted April 15, 2017 K.Thana, Welcome to the Dao Bums. can you share with us about Thai herbalism or traditional Thai therapies? The country seem dotted with tourist trap massage parlours, but surely there are still masters, who use local herbs, massage techniques, etc., no? Many thanks!

CedarTree Posted July 4, 2017 I have actually stayed at a Thai Buddhist Monastery though in a different country. Thai people are some of the most welcoming and kind people, plus the food is insanely good! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Setting up mushrooms farms I believe. Hope he learns well, he could set some up here :). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marblehead has advised me thus - "You must walk the Middle Path". Now I am middle-pathed. As such, I think thana is a Thai national living in Korea.

Hello Apeiron&Peiron, This is my last post on this thread. Apparently thana is extremely busy in Korea. I have been advised on Internet thus: "Here's about 20 ways to say goodbye in Thai Language. Just type in the word goodbye - http://www.thai-language.com/dict ". So I am now typing in - goodbye. - LimA Edited July 8, 2017 by Limahong Correct typo error.
