Chiang Rai
Land and Houses
FARMSTEADING IN THAILAND  250 pages with 2 dozen photos, diagrams and a few political cartoons tossed in for good measure. True story of solo foreigner who came to Thailand with no prior contacts, little money, and no handle on the language - and tells how he went on to secure property, develop a homestead and an organic orchard specializing in plants that were unknown in southeast Asian markets.

LALI'S PASSAGE  308 pages. A fast-paced novel based on true events which follows the quirky episodes of a Burmese beauty who steals away from bondage, and later finds herself in with a back-to-the-land group of Native American wannabe's camped out in a California wilderness.  It's like a Tin Tin for adults, with a wealth of nutty adventures, including a treasure hunt beneath a Burmese temple ...but you wouldn't want us to reveal the plot, would you? 

LIFE STORY OF MILAREPA  82 pages.  Milarepa was a singer of spiritual poems who roamed the northern slopes of the Himalayas 900 years ago.

700 THAI WORDS TAKEN FROM ENGLISH  - known as 'tap sap' in Thai, this is the most comprehensive list of its kind anywhere.  Includes descriptions, sensible transliterations, and Thai spellings. A great way to get a jump start on learning Thai.

So often, vendors post blurbs that are either made-up or are rave reviews from friends and family. Here is a real review from someone unknown to author:  "I really enjoyed the audio book. The story is so grounded in simple human reflection. It had a sobering effect on me to perceive of such a larger than life character such as Milarepa having such simple problems like me, and be perplexed like me. It made me laugh and let go in some ways.  I am really into hearing such stories. I would like to totally encourage you to do more audio!"  Gabe in Seattle

TWO REVIEWS OF LALI...

"This book had a lot of details as to what southeast Asia is really like. Lali was a delightful character! I enjoyed following her story and seeing the world through her eyes. She was refreshingly innocent in her own way! All-in-all, I found this book to be a very good debut novel that anyone interested in Asia would enjoy!"
Detra Fitch, Huntress Reviews
= = = = = = = = = = = = = =

"I really enjoyed reading the book. The tale of Lali's adventures as she struggles to cope with the complexities of western culture is both hilarious and thought provoking. With a treasure hunt thrown in, Lali's Passage is a book well worth reading."
