I'm Going To Watch The World Cup With a Fan From Every Country, in Bangkok, or Sleep Trying

in #sport • 6 years ago (edited)

It is World Cup time. Time to do what a third of humanity is doing this month and watch soccer. I live in Bangkok and can't make it to this World Cup. But if I can't go to the football mountain then the football mountain will just have to come to me. I'm going to scour Bangkok embassies, bars, restaurants and online forums until I can find somebody from each of the 32 countries taking part.

English, French, German and Japanese will be easy to find. Senegalese, Icelandic and Uruguayan less so.

Games will generally kick off at 7pm, 10pm and 1am local Bangkok time making it easy to find football fans after work. Is there a Serbian soccer fan among Bangkok's 10 million residents? I'm going to do my best to find out.

I will post my updates here for every game during the world cup.

If you can help me on my quest please share any details of events or people you know in the comments below. Follow if you'd like to see the diversity of people living in Bangkok and how soccer is a truly global phenomenon.

      That does sound like a lot of fun :) I think someone from Iceland will be very hard to find because the country has a population of 300 000 only.

      I hope you can complete this challenge :) Can t wait for more posts about this.

        I've only met one person from Iceland in my life. It was actually at a football tournament though. They were going to watch Ireland versus Sweden at the last European Championship. We shared a train to the stadium.
        It is definitely going to be the most difficult country to complete.

            I've met one or two Nepalese over the years in Bangkok. Really friendly people. There is a great Nepalese restaurant in the city centre. Hopefully I'll meet some more over the next month.
