ex-pats

the ex-pats are a great bunch, they're very supportive, it's a small town so people knew that a new boy had arrived - have been invited to parties, dinner, drinks, went over to wendy's for a curry night, she's a great cook, has a stunning view from her veranda and shared all her tips for finding wine, cheese and snacks, now all i need is a branch of rococo! It's diverse bunch, all ages and backgrounds, mostly working for NGOs, I'm really impressed by people's passion and altruism in wanting to help the people of Laos and it's also been interesting listening to some of the frustrations faced on a day to day basis.
