  1. Any advice for health insurance in Chiang Mai? Thanks!
  2. Mots is one, Key is another. Any others? Thanks.
  3. Going out to Kad luong (Wororot Market) the day the it flooded has twisted my mind: now I'm worried about floods stopping me to get to SUV to take my flight. The train was my first choice, but they've stopped running again. The South is supposed to flood, including BKK. I've decided to take the bus. Flight goes Oct. 29 2024. Where can I learn about this? Any links to this info? Thanks!

  5. What about Kad Luong (Wororod Market)?
  6. My situation has changed & I might need a 15 month visa, after all. Mott is one specialist in Pattaya. Do you know any of the others? Thanks!
  7. In Chiang Khong maybe that was why the green bus didn't have a same day return. I don't think Lao has that rule yet. I still have some hopes that I can go somewhere & come home the same day. (Remember Mai Sai?) Thanks for the feedback!
  8. I need a new stamp from across a border close to Chiang Mai. (I plan to leave Thailand in 1-2 months.) I am a US citizen with a normal passport. Is Savannahkhet a good choice? I'd rather not stay overnight.
  9. A land crossing is what kind of stamp & getting a consular visa is what kind of stamp? Flying in gets a stamp at the airport? Anything else? (I'm trying to determine how to cross into another country.) I think I'd count from Jan. 1 2024 onward, but after that I don't understand. Hope this is clear enough. I'm a US citizen.
  10. Fly into Vientiane or Udon to get the 30 day stamp? Thanks.
  11. Dr Jack: Yes, that is the extension at immigration that will expire end of May. I wish to stay in Thailand until the waiting list clears for my apt. back home.
  12. My first visa from a Thai consul (Vientiane) expires end of May. May I get another one there or at a different Thai consul? I'm a US citizen. Thanks
  13. Now to deal with Lazada. Thanks very much. I am prepared.
  14. where did you buy the model2? Thanks.
  15. where did you buy the model 2 you mentioned? Thank you Cube
  16. thanks, am buying this one plus the material on back of a fan. it's a table model fan so will have to put it on creatively. Now to find a Thai speaker to help me buy this air purifier. many thanks.
  17. When I left I gave it away. (nobody would buy it)
  18. Hi, Hope you can help. Last time I was here for burning season I paid about 3,000 B. This year I can't pay that much. But I am hacking, coughing and sneezing. ( I finally went tio the doc.) Any ideas about where to buy an inexpensive air purifier? Thanks
  19. Does this mean I can to across a border for a stamp on Jan. 1? Or does it have to be in December? Thanks.
  20. I'm out of land crossings for 2023 but need one more stamp; my Thai visa expires Jan 1 2024. (The immigration police at Vientiane crossing reminded me before sending me back to Lao.) Is there an airport in Chiang Khong? Thanks.
  21. Hello, Visa agents in Pattaya abound who'll do this but it costs. Any agents up here? Thanks!
  22. Yes, social security does not extend to 800,000 bhat, even when a person is a retired teacher. Yet I could live like a worthy human being. It was refreshing. The Dalai Lama calls it 'living with dignity.' Perhaps it will work out again. It does teach us a few lessons, though, about how flippant people are, willing to ridicule fellow ex-pats. The Thai immigration officer was in good company...
  23. Kiimothai, now the larger visa company (in bkk) says they'll have a new quota of 15 month visas like you asked about. The issue with all the companies lies in the non O financial requirement (800,000 bhat), which is why so many of us get these 15 month extensions. But her quota is limited and timing is not 100% assured. I'm willing to try though.
