  1. A "frequent visitor" is the one who gets told by Immigration "You come to Thailand too much". This can be any of the ones you mentioned.
  2. As we all know, frequent visitors often get grilled by Immigration at airports upon entering Thailand. But do they grill people who are over 50 years old and frequently visit Thailand on tourist visas? There seems to be little incentive to grill them because such people have the right to stay in Thailand as long as they want using the yearly retirement extensions if they wish so. But how is it in practice?
  3. They won't go anywhere for less than 100 baht.
  4. Leave those 13 year old girls alone to their classmates! They also need to entertain themselves after school.
  5. Remember good old covid days when we guessed whether covid extensions would be continued or not...
  6. You don't get banned for 5 years for a short overstay (under 90 days).
  7. It may take years to learn the language to a truly conversational level beyond basic everyday phrases and expressions.
  8. Being a foreigner in a country where a majority of people don't speak English or your language can be very stressful. That's why it's important to build your own social circle. In fact, a lot of expats tend to congregate together and stay in designated expat communities.
  9. Thanks for an example of how payed pro-Kremlin trolls work. To non Russian readers: There are a lot of propaganda sponsored posts like this on Russian message boards and Telegram chats.
  10. You didn't see Ukrainian refugees in Europe driving Mercedes and BMWs?
  11. Surprise: They work online. A lot of them are actually working for their regular Russian employers. During the pandemic online work became the norm.
  12. They didn't risk being jailed for openly opposing the war, unlike the Russians.
  13. The Russian society is split over this. A lot of people, especially the younger generation, oppose the war, some even go to jail for openly expressing their views. On the other hand, a lot of people support the war and believe the propaganda.
  14. I am one of the Russian war refugees. Will be happy to answer your questions and bust some myths.
  15. I mean, avoided in the first place. You pay 20k extra and they just deport you without blacklisting.
  16. Which can be "cleared" for another 20k or so ????
  17. Where can you get a root canal done for 2100 baht? The normal price is around 8000.
