I must admit, I started to watch this video expecting to just despise this guy - but he actually seems a really nice guy. I guess I thought it was contemptuous to think you could ever understand Thailand in only three years. To his credit he doesn't appear to be a know it all, just searching for understanding.
But I couldn't help but think - that poor poor bastard - get out while you can. Because you'll be eaten up and spat out in five minutes if you're not careful.
