Noel Douglas Z.

Born in Lucerne, Switzerland, in the 70s. As a result of extensive world travel, he is fluent in four languages, with considerable knowledge of the customs and cultures of many countries. Having lived in Thailand for 32 years, he is extremely fluent in the Thai language and business methods. In the 80s, Noel joined a jet and limousine service specializing in providing high-security services. He started as a dispatcher for the jet services, where the aircraft were dual-functional. They could either carry passengers or be converted to an air ambulance that repatriated people, world-wide. The company’s limousine service provided armored limos to VIP clients like Elton John, Phil Collins, Tina Turner, Roger Moore, and Axel Springer. Noel was a professional driver providing a high-security service to these, and other high-profile clients. Indeed, Noel was featured with his Rolls-Royce limo, in the film “Fire, Ice and Dynamite” starring Roger Moore. Over three decades ago, Noël moved to Thailand where he turned his interest in computers into a business, acting as an IT Consultant and Designer. He has also been involved in community work, where his extensive linguistic skills are used to considerable effect with Pattaya’s Tourist Police. Noël lives in Pattaya. He has three children, and the family language is Thai, although all the children, aged 23, 21 and 14, are multilingual, too.
