Thanatcha  aka Oil arrived in Launceston just under two years ago after meeting her Australian husband at an international school where she was working in her hometown of Pattaya.  She starting teaching piano when she was only 15 and now teaches it from her home in Launceston.    Thanatcha talks about the challenges of settling down in Launceston, a town vastly different from where she came from, how she''s learnt to adapt to local culture and the value to migrants of understanding "footy" for getting to know locals.
