Stevoman, check www.udonmap.com for all the info on Udon. I have just come back from there after 4 months and leave in 3 weeks for another 4 months. Another alternative is the overnight train. Get a lower sleeper berth for you and an upper for your TGF if you bring one...

Udon Thani (population (225,000) is a wonderful town to visit or to live. The Udon map site is best to start, pick up paper copy at Steve's bar. The P4P scene is sparce but good freelance action across from shopping center. Also good place to find GTG wife or GF as it has large University in center of town. Cost of living is reasonable and a lot of expats live there. 4 or 5 9 hole golf courses, 2 18 hole ones within hour drive. I have nice stucco, tile roofed, walled yard 3 bedroom home in good complex with my Thai wife that costs me a whopping B6000 per month with a guarantee that the landlord will never raise the rent.
