Stranger In A Strange Land
Finding your feet after a move to a new country, or even a new town, can be exciting. It's also often stressful with many emotional ups and downs - adjusting to a different language or culture can take time and make us feel a bit isolated. But if you look around, you'll find local social and support groups are just a phone call away.
Finding a foothold
Use AngloINFO to help you to find the contacts you may need. Firstly, see The AngloFILE category Relocation, Removals & Help Moving to Thailand for organisations specialising in simplifying the process of settling in to a new country or region.
Next, browse through the Community Life: Bangkok category of The AngloFILE, where you'll find contact information for social and special-interest groups listed under Clubs & Associations. Or see the Support Groups category to find a helping hand in tougher times.
And if adapting to the move is proving very tough, and you feel you need a bigger helping hand – or know someone who does – see the category Counselling & Therapists.
The AngloINFO Forum provides a very effective way to ask advice, share experiences, and find new friends in the region, in English. See the sections under Living in Bangkok, where you can start or participate in discussions on family life, animal matters or local media and entertainment.
