Hi, im Thai and a Police Sergeant in Texas USA. Going to retire in 5 years and back to the motherland

Welcome back, ka. 😊

Glad you interviewed Faraway Fred! I watched his TH-cam channel and even met up with him when I visited CM last. He's definitely a cool guy and much deserved, peaceful retirement after his years serving his community in the US. Catch his videos and insights on his channel: Faraway Fred.

I like Fred’s energy and candor - seems like a real stand-up friendly dude. Good video!

[@Livingabroadalex]

Thank you and I totally agree

Fred has the voice of a radio presenter. Very articulate. Looks like fitness is a priority for him,
Great interview, cheers from also San Pu Loei, Doi Saket :)

Retired LE myself. Went to Thailand site unseen like this gentleman. Our former career helps us to adapt quickly to most situations including cultures in my experience. Congrats on a happy retirement!

Great to see you interview Lou Gossett Jr. Seems like a really decent man, level headed and friendly. I wish him and his wife all the best in Thailand or wherever they go🤘🙏

No need to be disrespectful.

[@mannyc4224]

26 years as a cop. That man has seen the good, bad, and ugly of our country. I hope he has a long and healthy retirement.

[@Livingabroadalex]

You're absolutely right ! Yea I hope so too. A really cool guy!

[@bclim96278]

All the best!

Ok I spent 20 in Law Enforcement in CA and have lived in CNX for 8 years. CNX is safe from crime but road safety is very poor. When one is out on the streets(sidewalks are rare) keep your head on a swivel. Driving can be a dangerous activity. Always remember "Safety" is your responsibility.

[@AuntieCamilla1111]

[@Livingabroadalex]

@AuntieCamilla1111 it's not so bad u til February or March
But just keep an eye out

[@TubeTimePi1]

@@AuntieCamilla1111 Burning season typically starts around the end of February, or mid March, and runs through May. The weather in Chiang Mai during January and most part of February are relatively cool and pleasant. Just providing info in case you wanna plan your trip around those months.

[@AuntieCamilla1111]

@@TubeTimePi1 awesome thank you so much for that information. Now I know I still can plan my trip to Chaing Mai in the middle of January

[@maryziggy8802]

Wonderful interview Fred. Good to see more of you the person

[@mrbHanoi]

Japan is wonderful in March April and May Vietnam is great in Feb Just leave for 4 months in burning season.

[@ชํานาญนันหาร-ท9ด]

I found that this past summer was hotter than usual, probably due to global warming (I live in the north of Thailand).

[@Livingabroadalex]

Oh, thanks for sharing!

Former LEO myself. Absolutely love this gentleman's story. I am actually looking at Penang or KL Malaysia myself. Thanks so much for this info!
