Although most working men and women spend only a few hours at their homes, they want it to be of their choice as they feel it to be the place of...
Has Pattaya really gone upscale? More than once I almost had to justify my reasons to work and live in Pattaya to those that have a certain judgmental prejudice about what they think is ‘Sin City’ point-blank… A short while ago I was invited to an agency gathering on the roof-top pool area at Raimon Land’s Northpoint condominium project.
