Pattaya is located south of Bangkok at the Gulf of Thailand and has become a favourite place for expats from Europe, many of them from Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The "Villa Germania" is one of many apartmenthouses only for german speaking longtime tourist or expats. "Wiener Schnitzel" and "Weisswurst" are definitely more common than the healthy traditional Thai cuisine while the girlfriends of the geriatric retirees look not european at all.
