  1. It's as good as it gets given my financial situation, so in that respect I am thankful to this country and the lifestyle it allows me to live.

     

    If I had what I consider "real F-You money" (about US$20m+) I'd be on the first plane out and off to the Caribbean.

     

    I think this is what the govt gets wrong about wanting/focusing on "ultra high value" tourists/long-term expats.....people with serious money to spend on holidays can find much better destinations.

    Nah, deepest darkest Isaan. But I've made a proper MAGA gal out of her, confederate flag bumper sticker on her car, MAGA and DT hat etc. for when we go into the big city for a drink at the handful of Western bars. Pisses off the European soyboys. Highly entertaining.

  3. Bottle of Lao Kao 60 bt at the village store/bar, bottle of smokes or 1g of weed 70 bt, some fresh veg and chicken/pork for 3 stir fried wok meals at home and you've eaten well the whole day, got drunk and high for about 200 bt. 

     

    Hel, splurge and go HiSo with a bottle of Saengsom and you might hit a whopping 400 bt. 

     

    Do that every day and you're at 12,000 bt for the month. Rent a decent aircon room or small house for 4-8,000 and you're at 20k max. 

     

    Add another 10k for some incidentals/treats/misc. and you can live comfortable in a 24/7 haze for US$1k or less.

     

    It's still possible. For losers. But that's how most expats come across anyway.

    I'm outside of Thailand trying to fill in this thing and I cannot get into the section on accommodation. At accommodation section, all fields stay grey and will not offer any drop down. It keeps sending sytax error 502 and 503. No idea what that means. Tried Edge, Chrome, my iPhone - nothing works to get me into that section. I'm definitely within the 3 day window for arrival.

     

    Anyone else encountered this or have advice?

    Sorry,  thought I replied to this. It worked today and I have the QR (which I will also print out as others have done in case they ask at airline check in.). I must have been making some errors in the departure fields and that wouldn't let me move on to accommodation. Still a bit of a mystery. Anyway, worked in the end - thanks.

     

    Same problem today, unable to enter any data in the accommodation fields. But, I did get the QR/confirmation msg/mail and everything looks fine except that the accommodation section is blank. 

     

    Anyone else?
