My name is Panrit “Gor” Daoruang, a teenager from Thailand.
I used to be called Nattawud, but a monk suggested that I should change my name after a series of bad luck.
I don’t think it helped me that much because I am now in a Thai prison.
The stories in this book are based on my Thailandlife.com website and my “Gor’s World” column that I wrote for the Bangkok Post when I was just 16 years old.
You will be able to read about my teenage romance, my High School marriage and the birth of my lovely daughter – though it didn’t quite happen in that order.
This is my Thailand life.

Broken Guts by Anthony Aikman, a retired British doctor living in a Lahu village in northern Chiang Rai.

The book is described as a "rough medical guide for travelers in Thailand and Southeast Asia". it is in an unusual format in that it is handwritten, not typed, but is still easy to read - but that's why it's called a "rough" guide.

It is not just about stomach upsets but every type of medical problem you could face wandering around Thailand, from food poisoning to armpit boils, from jellyfish stings to snake bites. There's even a page on dodgy mushrooms.

It's all written with a sense of humor plus entertaining illustrations and can be found throughout Thailand.  It could come in very useful next time you have health problems somewhere out in the boonies.

I was alone and desperate, the Sex-Tourist havens beckoned me with open arms.
Only 13
I was never sold, only sold-out!

My culture holds all women to be not only inferior—but expendable.

Original release, # 2 Asia Books’ Best Seller List--Thailand,
in only its 2nd month.

From a child runaway, to a top earner in Thailand’s prolific sex industry, comes the story of a little girl in an impoverished land where girls aren’t valuable enough to educate, yet are expected to become the primary income earners--responsible for the basic needs and welfare of their families.

By the time Lon was 18, she had been responsible for the sole support of her family for five years.  After suffering a childhood filled with beatings, blamed for the death of her father, and denied further education at the age of 12, she ran away and soon sold the only item of value she possessed--her young and supple body. The more she earned by agreeing to the most perverted and degrading acts demanded by her foreign customers, the more money her mother demanded.  An abortion at 15, followed by a suicide attempt, hundreds of clients, and the discovery and loss of her first love—all before she was 18--are her story.  Her relentless determination to save her sisters from the same fate gave her the strength to endure, and to tell the unknowing world how the “Daughters of Isaan” must honor their family obligations, regardless of the cost to themselves,

Eric Dent has recently become a divorce statistic, he has also had a couple of unfortunate events that brought him to the notice of his local UK Constabulary, and to top it all, his employer made him redundant.  Taking charge of his life, he decides to start afresh in Thailand.

Within 24 hours of arriving in the Kingdom, Eric has an ugly encounter with a Flight Attendant, comes to the attention of the Royal Thai Police, gets involved with an unlicensed taxi driver, makes some new friends, and meets the woman of his dreams.

In retrospect, Eric should have bought himself a sturdy pair of boots, as he has a steep learning curve to climb!

Follow Eric’s misadventures as he meets, and finds himself involved with an array of misfits, weirdoes, drunkards, conmen, braggarts, lady-boys, lesbians, a couple of normal people, and some pretty girls.

Olin Powers, world traveler, political savant, and author of Dream Weaver, makes a stunning debut onto the literary scene. With uncanny sensibility, Thailand’s sex trade is placed under an astonishingly focused spotlight. Guileless wanderers to sagacious barons of industry unwillingly crumble before the beguiling charms of the Orients’ unrivaled enchantresses. With tragedy and ruin lurking in the shadows of these fettered souls, the author spins a sensitive tale that captures the daily drama of a subculture touchingly humanized. The reader is served a sensuous feast to be savored with a no-holds-barred riveting portrait of unbridled passion and shattered illusions.

Recipe for Dream Weaver

Franks Evans, New York City orphan, US Marine, CIA Operative, Bangkok drunk, and philanderer, finds himself at a crossroad of life and death.
Johnny Gould, disheartened California dreamer, hard on with a heart, and hopeless romantic, is hurled into a steaming, soul-searching, sexual adventure of a lifetime.
Harry Doughty, happy-go-lucky incorrigible rascal, chases the elusive American Dream, only to find himself spending his GoldenYears pondering a blind jump into improbable romance.
Ansel Bean, privileged nerd, misanthrope, and hapless underdog, attempts to break out of his dull life in London to delve unwittingly into a whirlwind of flesh and mayhem.

Collect the above, add a sundry of stunning Asian temptresses, barons of industry, and intractable washouts, place in a wok, spice heavily with raw libido, fantasy, greed and compassion, stir over open flame and simmer until the reader is served a feast of erotic adventure, delight, passion, illusion, tragedy and ruin.

This is how this inexplicable passion started. If I had read the books on Thailand which I bought much later, my life would have been different, maybe. I couldn’t even imagine that I had fallen victim to the most incredible scheme, which had ruined the dreams and lives of thousands of tourists who had gone to Thailand searching for happiness.

And I was an experienced man who had had hundreds of women. Bullshit, I was simply yet another stupid farang. Yet another one you can get money out of – the more the better. Naturally, I have nothing to regret – nothing that happened to me and nothing I did. I had thought about everything, I had weighed up the risk and took it with all the responsibility of an adult man.

But I could have at least tried to learn more. I did so in the end, but it was too little, too late. I suffered damage beyond measure in emotional terms. Financial loss was something I let go of much easier, and it was something I could control. But a broken heart and shattered dreams can never be made up.

one step   One step at a time : Buddhist meditation for absolut beginners
by the author of Little angels  and Phra Farang : an English monk in Thailand



" I have tried many different ways of finding true freedom and peace of mind, from 'turning on and dropping out ' in the late 1960's to a life ensnared in materialism, self and hedonism in the Thatcher's 80s. Except at the most superficial level, none of that worked for me. Meditation did. I now believe there is only one way to genuine and lasting freedom of mind and that is through meditation. I hope that your own practice will lead you to the same realization
