Applied this morning for the "Reserve" option and ready to wire 5,000.000 Baht. Just got email saying: Dear Sir, we are sorry to inform that on this occasion, we are not able to accept your membership request as we are inundated with requests from Scheina, Ruskylandia and Indialand. We put you on our waiting list which stands at the moment at 67,498 Kind regards, Dreamlandfactory (just joking).

Doesn't look "luxury" to me, even ignoring the rubbish all over the place. Owner probably from a small village and in her eyes, a one room place looks like a palace.

He's probably the tallest Thai I have ever seen. 1m92 I think.

Pick her up at Uni and invite her for dinner or cinema. You will quickly see if she really attends Uni or if she is on a different mission.

Thai economy, especially tourism and real estate is heavily depending from China. Be prepared, it will suffer heavily. Chinese economy struggling heavily. Evergrande and now Country Garden under water. Growth of economy very slow. Un-employment very high. Thailand relies heavily on Chinese visitors and real estate buyers. They won't come. China will soon limit financial transactions. You wanted the Chinese and now you get what you desired. Russia as well: forget about the Russians. Rouble sinking like a stone. Probably BOT increasing interest rate another 25 basis points but economy already struggling. Banks are tightening their criterias. Business and private loans heavily limited. Buckle up.

RIP

800k Baht Must be a farang on Non-Imm O-A.

Indeed. I tried for a few hours now.

It's not loading. I tried on my phone and laptop. Can't reach this site. Wanted to print my last TM47

I mentioned it later. Leaving from BKK

Yes they are open.

For once I hope that the Baht gets even stronger.

Was just seeing a report that Russians in Bali are moving their money through crypto in Bali.

looks amazing

Just looking a youtube report about Bali. They are fed-up with the Russians. Whole buildings being build for them. They don't care about the locals. They scream around, no respect for the local culture. Taking nude pictures, working illegal etc. Bali is starting to send them back because of working illegal, nude pics and behaving like they were still in Ruskylandia. Everyday more ruskies arrive and many with a one-way ticket. On this report, you just see the young ones. Where do they have the money from, what visa do they get? A 17 year old travelled to Bali and stayed. How on earth is that possible. Thailand, do you want to go that way as well?

Probably choosing the trip south towards Chumphon.

They let me plan and surprise them, as usual.

Sounds interesting, thank you.

YES, nice hotels a must. Some sightseeing, mountains, beaches. Open for everything. If not rainy season, we would be off to Koh Chang but when it rains ( a lot), it's not pleasant.

Bangkok

I've been in Udon Thani last weekend. Heavy rain as well but had a nice hotel. Was the only farang there and during breakfast, they might have thought to play some farang music. 5555 I couldn't believe my luck. They were playing: "I wish you a merry Christmas". Those thais, amazing.

I usually plan trip well in advance. This 7_9 days road-trip came up shortly. We want to stay in Thailand as daughter already travelled with her mom to Europe. Option one was Koh Chang as we love the island and have a favourite hotel but the weather is a concern as this site of Thailand gets most of the rain. Option two is driving south but no idea where to stop. Option 3 is driving up north which partner is talking about but up north, it's raining a lot too. 2-3 days to go but still no plan lol.

Good morning, Very last minute planning. My daughter, my partner and myself a planning a last minute road trip for a week or so. Planning on leaving next saturday or sunday. Preference was: Koh Chang but probably not suitable as it's raining a lot in this area. Driving up north? Driving south? As I see, the best weather is south from HuaHin. Any suggestions where to go for a week trip by car and where to stop and what to see. Thanks in advance.

I have a brand new "Lolex" and nobody ever looked at it.
