I have lived in 42 cities in 4 different countries.. Never visiting most of them beforehand. Nothing is permanent.

Very fool hardy to try here in the middle of a military coup set to last into 2016. I think you motives may be less than honorable and I question if you are leaving messes behind you???? Are you hiding an aspect of your movements from all.

Wow.. your manners are ..hmmm... distgusting... try not to ever reply to any of my posts again.

Impermanence is permanence.

1Happykamper may just be a little to happy to the point of being loopy foolhardy and a flake

I have been away from my techno life for awhile and continued where I left off on this thread from my OP. Most of the messages here were helpful if not a bit pessimistic... however this post.. is unacceptable. Please refrain from bashing with name calling. Thank you. Enjoy a beautiful day in your perfect world.

I asked the Thailand consul in Los Angeles if a one way plane ticket was good enough when I arrive with my approved retired o-a visa.

Thier answer... "That depends on that Thai Immigration at the airport."

Not a solid answer.

What does the law say in this regard.. Anyone.. Please.. Cheers.

Okaaaaaaay. And the OP has just left the stage.

Helpful

Good morning all. I am interested in the likelhood of an encounter with either... a Tsunami, large wild animals, snakes spiders and
Life is all about probability.

Cheers

Slightly off topic but may I ask why you are leaving Mejico HC?

I want to move to Thailand. Just a different place to explore. Mexico is a great place but the prices are getting close to USA prices and affordability and desire to spend $700 on rent is not my cuppa tea

considering the north makes some of the worlds best coffeess (doi chaang in chiang rai is top 1%).

coffee shouldn't be a problem

This is GOOD to hear!!! mexico grows greta coffee too and untill less than 10 year ago most of it was exported and Nescafe was the only coffee srved here. Finding an expresso machine outside of large cities here is very rare. To Mexicans coffee is a luxury hence the $2.50 I pay for one !

Maybe i could swap with the op,i loved Mexico,when i was there,and they don't play music at 5am ,have a house,wife ect,pickup ,motorsai,hell i will even leave some of my good shirts,how about it Happy kamper?

Marko.. when were you in Mexico.. my life in San Miguel de Allende has been greta for 2 years... and YES music is played 24 hours a day in many big cities and even in the countryside. Nothing terrible wrong with mexico..just time for me to travel and live in SE Asia.

Thanks so much for the replies today. I am getting used to the 13 hour delay to my questions.. )

OK. Bring my size 13 shoes. Good quality t shirts. Socks. Fruit of the Loom. Check. Thanks so much for your warm welcome and input.

A side note: COFFEE!!!!! Outside of major cities, how tough is it to get a good latte or americano?

what kind of visa do you have?

Still working on how to do that. I qualify for a Retired Visa.. more an 65,000 a month and aged 63

Just joined this very active and informative group. happy new year to all. Hmmm.. first question... is the Thai new yer like China or USA ?) soooo many questions.. all in good time...

I have never visited Asia before..I currently live in Central Mexico ..2 years now. So my "move" is 2 suitcases. I sold the kitchen sink years ago.

My question this is in regards to cost of items in Thailand..specifically: mens shirts -casual, Levis jeans, walking shorts, a 54" smart TV, a 27" high end computer monitor, a good inkjet printer and sunscreen. ) ALL these items in MX are very expensive... I want to know the cost of replcaing all these items please.. and just how many clothes if any, I should buy in USA before departng for Thailand. Cheers.
