Q1. Where did you move to and when?

I returned home to France in 2019.

Q2. How long did you work in Thailand?

Let's just say it was a good few years.

Q3. What was your main reason for moving?

Unfortunately, when I turned 60, I was unable to find a new teaching position.

Q4. What are the advantages of working where you are now compared to Thailand?

There are no advantages at all in being where I am now. Thailand was always the greatest country to live and work in.

Q5. What do you miss about life in Thailand?

The monarchy and the respect of Thai people for their country, Buddhism as a daily way of life, the genuine kindness and honesty of thai people and the coherency of thai society, the respect of thai students for their teacher. And of course the food and the smiles!

Q6. Would you advise a new teacher to seek work in Thailand or where you are now?

Thailand 100%

Q7. Any plans to return to Thailand one day?

It is like the deepest wound when I’m far away from Thailand. I would dearly love to return one day and I would go anytime.

Q8. Anything else you'd like to add?

I’m afraid that thai people lose their souls if they welcome too many strangers. There are too many Chinese and Westerners coming into Thailand just for the drugs, the drinks and the prostitution industry. I feel also extremely sad when I see gay pride processions in Chiang-Mai or Bangkok. Thai people should protect themselves from the vices of other countries and their woke ideology.
