  1. '21 Amazing Things To Do In Bangkok' is basically a collection of the things that we actually like doing when in the city. Rather than reeling off all the capitals most popular tourist attractions we decided to go on a walk about and show people the sights and sounds of Thailand, the way we like to see them. It may not be to everyone's taste, but there may be something on our list that inspires you on your next trip to the capital city of Bangkok. :-) Enjoy

  3. An ANIMATED North THAILAND Adventure In CHIANG RAI. We made an Animation HYPER Lapse STOP MOTION 2K Resolution Ultra High Definition video of a day exploring Chiang Rai.The challenge was to move our bodies VERY slowly step by step with each photograph to create an interesting Animated Stop Motion movement for the resulting final video which plays at 24 frames (photos) per second. Hope you like watching it.

    We also made a behind the scenes video to accompany it:

  4. Some of you guys will already know this because you've been following our video journey for several years. But now we are now producing a simplified, less edited video diary of our travels and experiences as expats in Thailand. The series is called 'A Day In The Life' and we are making a solid effort to get out on the streets as much as possible to film and edit down as much of our Thai travels as possible. Discovering new cafes, restaurants, tourist spots and beautiful places off the beaten track. Plus we share our opinions on the things that happen out here as we go through expat life in the 'land of smiles'. We are constantly looking for new places to discover so be sure to suggest places we can track down for future videos :-)

    We have 3 different Video Diary Styles: 'Behind The Lens' (Vlog Talking Style) | 'Sights & Sounds' (No Music, Real Audio) | 'Real Time' (UnCut, Unedited, Straight From Camera)

    THAILANDS DRONE BAN LAWS (BTL EPISODE 20)

  5. whistling.gif In answer to the specific question there will only be at best a fine to pay and they will wrote next to your exit stamp on your passport a note in Thai that you overstayed one day and paid the fine.

    It has no effect later, it's just a note to show it happened, and was dealt with.

    But what I don't understand is exactly how you can renew a visa at Mae Sai

    Yes it's an actual multiple entry Non Imm B type visa. We renew every 90 days at Mae Sai for the course of 12 months with a Bonus 90 days on the end as well.

    That statement confuses me, and I wonder if you really have a visa or an extension.

    Hope you are right.

    A multi entry visa is usually given by a Thai consulate and/or embassy. It is good for one year from the date of issue, and it is often stamped with an expiration date and has either the word Multi (sometimes Multiple)or the capital letter M where it says "Number of Entries".

    Each time you use it you will be stamped on your entry to Thailand with a "Permitted to stay stamp" in your passport.

    That stamp is NOT a renewal, it just shows entry to the country and allows you a 90 day stay.

    And there is no "bonus" of 90 days either.

    It's just that if you enter Thailand on the last day of your multi entry visa validity you will get the same 90 day permitted to stay stamp.

    Even though your visa expires the next day that permitted to stay stamp allows you to stay legally for 90 days even after your actual visa is past it's one year expiration date.

    I would hate to see you return from Hong Kong and be stamped with a visa exempt entry good for only 30 days because your extension, not visa, expired when you left the country.

    If you do indeed have an extension to October 2014 that you should purchase a exit re-entry permit to allow you to exit Thailand and return and keep your extension valid until October.

    A single entry permit is only 1000 Baht and is cheap insurance at that price if you really have an extension and not a visa.

    But if you really do have a valid visa, good until October 2014, you don't need that permit.

    I guess I worded it wrongly but, Yes I have a Valid Visa from the Thai consulate in the UK. Its a Multiple Non Imm B type which is valid until July, and then with the 90 day extension at Mae Sai on the last day we will be allowed to stay in Thailand until October.

    I should have said extension rather than renewal sorry :-)

    Thanks for the info about the overstay, i'm feeling much more confident about passing through immigration now.
