Welcome to my Blog . . . Sabaidee . . .
Thanks for the visit, my name is Nye also known as Ginger. I was born in Laos, moved to Thailand at a very young age, and had some schooling there, our family later moved to America. I grew up in New York City, and currently living in the Southeastern part of the United States. Please read more about me here.
I like to read and translate Thai magazine articles and find some of their stories and culture to be interesting because it’s very similar to our culture. I hope you’ll enjoy reading my story and translation as for most of these stories are based on real life experiences of people living in Laos, Thailand, and The United States.

I’d like to know if the “chili-pepper-madness” image is copyrighted and if so do you mind if I use it for my site.

Hi Ginger,
following an article on thaicatwalk concerning the launch of a new brand name lingerie, I would be grateful if you could introduce me to Metinee Kingpayome or someone ine Jintana. Indeed, I am a distributor of Lingerie in Europe and I could be interested to get further details about this new brand name products.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Best regards,

Hi Ykhao, I’m just a blogger and don’t know these people on a business or personal level. If you’d, please contact Jade at Thaicatwalk and he might be able to help you better, or at least give you a contact information because he lives in Thailand. Sorry that I can’t help you more than this, and wish you best of luck.

Hi Nye, I really enjoy your post and your pictures are exceptional. I am new SLR owner and was wondering what kind of lens you have? I just got myself a Canon XSI.

Hi Joy, thanks for your kind words. I’ve a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTI, and I upgraded the lens to EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, it was recomended to me by a professional photographer.

Dear Nong Nye
Nice to talk to you again.
No, You do not need new equipment, Your Photographic Skill and your knowkledge of the photography are Great and Fantastic/ Awsome already.
The Good/ Great Photos are from 80% of the skill of the person who press the shutter, 15% from the good Lens and Only 5% from the Camera Body.
Have a great days.

sambaidee Nye,
I am sneaking into your blog for a few months, enjoy it very much, keep good work…I miss home, Laos!

sambaidee san, your greeting sounds like Tai Tai (Lao Southerner) just like me.
Thanks for your comment, it’s good to hear from you and I think it’s the little things that we share on the Internet that made us feel connected and closer to home, I miss Laos also.
