The walls are up, the roof is on, and the finishing touches are starting to appear. Every day brings us closer to walking through that front door, not as visitors, but as homeowners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a big milestone but it\u2019s not the only life-changing event on our horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Booms_Big_Career_Shift\"><\/span><strong>Boom\u2019s Big Career Shift<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>After 8 years working in the hotel industry, Boom has made the bold decision to hang up her hospitality uniform and swap it for farm boots. It\u2019s not an easy choice to leave a stable career in Bangkok, especially one where she\u2019s built great relationships and mastered her craft. But farming fish ponds, hydroponics, and fresh produce is where her heart is now. The city gave her opportunities, but the countryside will give her space, freedom, and a new kind of challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Move_%E2%80%93_September_15\"><\/span><strong>The Move \u2013 September 15<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If all goes according to plan, around September 15 we\u2019ll be making the big move. The trip from Bangkok to Chumphon Buri will be more than just a change of address it\u2019s the start of a completely different lifestyle. Fewer skyscrapers, more rice fields. Less traffic, more tractor noise. We\u2019ll finally be able to wake up to birdsong instead of car horns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Looking_Back_on_Bangkok\"><\/span><strong>Looking Back on Bangkok<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve had some truly great times in Bangkok. From late-night street food runs to weekend caf\u00e9 hopping, from the chaos of Chatuchak Market to the calm of a Chao Phraya River cruise this city has given us memories that will last a lifetime. We\u2019ll miss our favorite noodle shop down the street, the convenience of having everything within a few minutes\u2019 walk, and yes, even the energy of the city traffic (at least a little).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But while Bangkok will always be a chapter in our story, we\u2019re ready to write the next one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Looking_Forward\"><\/span><strong>Looking Forward<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Life in Chumphon Buri will be slower, simpler, and more connected to the land. We\u2019ll have space to grow our own food, raise fish, and build something from the ground up literally. This move isn\u2019t just about changing where we live; it\u2019s about changing how we live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next few weeks will be busy packing boxes, saying goodbyes, and finishing the house but underneath all the chaos is a quiet excitement. A new life is waiting for us, and we\u2019re ready to grab it with both hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boom &amp; Eric<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Subscribe to our youtube channel <a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/@city2farm\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/@city2farm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>City2farm<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The House After months of planning, building, and dreaming, we\u2019re entering the final phase of our house construction in Chumphon[&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":235,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-231","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=231"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":238,"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231\/revisions\/238"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/235"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=231"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=231"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.city2farm.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=231"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
