I'm Sébastien H. Brousseau — a Quebec-trained lawyer who moved to Thailand in 2004 and never quite left. Twenty-two years later I split my time between legal work, long road trips through places most foreigners miss, and eating things I can't always name.
This blog is where those three lives overlap. You'll find expat legal explainers, Isaan travel notes, food finds from Phetchaburi to Roi-Et, and the occasional opinion from someone who has watched Thailand change across two decades from a front-row seat.
For legal work — wills, property, company set-up, divorce, prenuptials — visit ThaiLawOnline.com, my Thai law firm serving expats in English and French since 2004.
Wang Nenn is a kind of resort, or restaurant beside the river near Sikhiu, but actually in Sung Noen district. It is really nice. I was told by friends of friends because if you don’t know where you are going, you might never find that place that is not advertised. Not sure exactly how I…
Hoi An is one of the most beautiful small towns in Asia — in dry season. In wet season it floods. February to early May is the sweet spot. A 2014 dry-season visit, plus the food (cao lau, mi quang), the Marble Mountains, My Son ruins, and why timing matters more than the guidebook says.
A beautiful temple to visit near Roiet, maybe 80 km, Wat Pha Nam Tip. This chedi is on the hill, with a nice scenic view.

I visited Angkor Wat five times between 2005 and 2013. The first time I was almost alone at sunrise. By 2012 there were five times as many tourists. See it before it changes further.
nnThere are tons of restaurants opening everywhere in Isaan. Roi-Et is not an exception and “Enjoy” is a beautiful new restaurant that opened in that city recently.nnnnIt is located on the street of the tall Buddha (Wat Burapha Phiram) when you go away from the temple outside the city.

Gastronome à mes jours, il y a longtemps que je n’ai pas écris sur la bouffe thaïlandaise qui est excellente. Je me suis permis un article sur la réputée Som Tam, la salade de papaya, ou la Papaya Salad. Il y a différentes sortes, lisez l’articles, et savoureux ce délice… ou certaines variations! http://isaan.com/papaya-bok-bok-repute-som-tam-de-la-thailande/?lang=fr …
