Where we live shapes most every aspect of our lives. Many of us simply grew up where we were planted. Home was where your parents made it, and likely their parents before them. But as travel options expanded and opportunity-rich destinations beckoned, many young people flocked to cities in search of their own fortunes.
High-paying jobs, new social connections, and exciting entertainment options lure 20- and 30-somethings away from small towns and villages. But over time, priorities naturally shift.
For those a few decades on, no longer tied to a location by work and family obligations, a lot of great options are out there. But where are some of the best places to live when you’re in your 60s?

A driver passed me by while I was looking at a lone elephant out in a field chained to the ground by his ankle. He informed me to be careful (rightly so) and that the elephant was "obstinate." Could being chained to the ground and being forced to carry people day in and day out be a reason for his obstinance?
Please let me know in the comments how you feel about these elephants and the elephant in the field.

An American in Thailand - http://www.anamericaninbangkok.com
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.
You'll get the good, the bad, and the ugly from someone who has lived here - really lived. No touristy fluff, no backpacker BS, no illusions of grandeur, only the truth as An American in Bangkok sees it.
