That probably changed as my parents had good coffee here in Pakse a few times the last week. Pakse has a huge market and some shops where you can buy many things from other countries (including 'Western countries'). And yes, it is dusty ... Read More

I am legally married in Lao with a lady woman. We have all the documents and did it ourselves. Step by step and slowly. Ask many questions and double check. For some reason it was not as difficult as I expected it. Yes, frustrating sometimes, but ... Read More

Ik got quoted 4,000 USD in Vientiane by an agent/ translator but didn't do this and did it myself. Talked with some people who hired an agent to do it and it took even longer in the end, and more expensive as well. Read More

Thanks for the reply Stumpy! I've tried to find information regarding this online as well but couldn't find information. We've also called a woman in the police station in Vientiane to ask but she was also not very sure and said that is ... Read More

Hi there, hope you are all well. I was thinking of moving to Pakse, I have never been to Laos. I was wondering how is life in Pakse, if there is a good expatriate community, how is everyday life, if there is anything to do at night....any comment ...
I was one of the westerners in Pakse for about a year. There are some western foreigners in town, mainly French people. Unfortunately they've decided to change the riverfront and many restaurants had to close on that part of the riverbanks. Read More
