On se Thaï

Il est le diable à Bangkok et l'ange à la campagne

The podcast features a Belgian guest named Noctis, who has a diverse background, including owning a bar in Bangkok and extensive travel in Southeast Asia. He explains that his nickname, Noctis, comes from a video game character whose story resonated with his own journey of changing his psychology and business upon arriving in Thailand. Noctis shares his initial experiences in Thailand, which began over a decade ago when he was 25. He had taken a sabbatical from his work in Belgium, where he owned four hair salons. He highlights the stark contrast between the ambitious and positive mindset of people in Thailand compared to the more envious and less ambitious attitudes he perceived in Belgium and France. He recounted an anecdote where a Thai taxi driver applauded a passing Lamborghini, expressing admiration rather than jealousy, a reaction he found refreshing and indicative of a different societal mindset.
