Expat Experiences Unveiled: Key Questions for Globetrotting Expats
Whether you're considering becoming an expat yourself or simply curious about different cultures, this guide offers a diverse range of questions that touch upon topics such as cultural adaptation, language barriers, local customs, and the overall expat lifestyle. Prepare to broaden your horizons and deepen your understanding of global perspectives by tapping into the wealth of knowledge shared by those who have embraced life as expatriates.
In today's stream, we'll delve into the fascinating cultural concepts of **Mia Luang** and **Mia Noi** in Thailand. The term **Mia Luang** refers to the legal or primary wife, holding the highest status and official recognition in a marriage. In contrast, **Mia Noi** translates to "minor wife" or "mistress" and denotes a woman in a long-term relationship with a man without the legal marriage status. These traditional practices, while less common today, offer a unique glimpse into Thailand's cultural heritage and evolving social dynamics. Join us as we explore how these roles have influenced and continue to shape relationships in Thai society.

As an expat living in Thailand since 1996, Scott Mallon has worked as a photojournalist for the past twelve years, been inside both Bang Kwang and Klong Prem Prisons (as a journalist), lost months at a time partying the days and nights away, been hospitalized several times, been near death once, fought in Muay Thai, managed a world-rated championship boxer, trained professional boxers, been thrown in jail, and fathered two children. Somehow, through it all, he's managed to remain married to the same Thai woman.
