I have a good bicycle which I would like to donate to my Lao friend. How can I get it to Nong Khai and pick it up by myself afterwards (a couple of days later).

Also is it possible to ride with bicycle from Nong Khai to Vientiane?

It's already long time I had a bus journey from Khon Kaen to Chiang Mai so I forgot how horrible experience it was.

Now planning to visit Pattaya and travel by bus. What is the best option - Nakhonchai Air has buses on this route, 1st class perhaps?

I booked a hotel in the near future. Amount was informed in THB. I will be paying using EUR credit card. Just wondering what exchange rate Agoda is using, most likely they have their own!

Any tips or advice which hotel to look for longer stay - budget less than 350 euros per month or 12.500 baht.

Thanks 

I got my non-o visa on 17th of October and they didn't ask any proof of financials.

Sorry to bother you all but

I just got non-O visa (one year) from Savannakhet. What other documents I will need in order to open a Thai bank account. I have also TM30. Do I need residence certificate (how to get it in Chiang Mai)?

Thanks for your help!

Living a remote area in my home country and thinking of buying solar panel or two for charging mobile phones and tablets!

Anyone using, which one is efficient and easy to carry?

What place?

Mentioned in the topic! Sorry my poor English, I am not a native English speaker...

Need new eyeglasses and found this place. Comments and reviews, please!

First I need a prescription and then can use online sellers like Zenni in the future!

Following documents I had

Original marriage document - I think it is KR3, my wife took a copy of hers and she only signed

Original KR2 from amphou office, so no need to sign, it was a two page document

Copy of KR5, sc name change document, signed by my wife

Copy of my wife's house book, wife signed

Copy of my wife's id-card, wife signed

Copy of my passport photo page, I signed

Copy of my Laos visa, I signed

Tuesday is a good day to visit, I went in front of consulate 8:30, four people before me were queuing.

Avalon 2 is a great place to stay, 500 baht, and within walking distance from the consulate, less than 1,5 kilometre.

Good places to eat: Lin's Cafe and Pilgrims Inn.

Use International Bus Mukdahan Savannakhet Mukdahan, bus station in Savannakhet is pretty close to Avalon 2 and consulate.

I was there on Tuesday, I signed only a copy of my passport and Laos visa, my wife signed rest of. Nothing asked or commented. Ok, I had an "original" KR2, not photocopy.

Oh wait, officer complained a copy of my wife's expired passport.

Very painful trip, having used several busses from Chiang Mai to Khon Kaen and Mukdahan. Feet swollen and pain in the back, not recommended!

But got the visa!

Hey, may I ask another question? Does this visa help me to open a Thai bank account or do I need some more documents?

Going also to Savannakhet soon and just to clarify this "signing" thing. Do I sign the same copy my wife has signed or will I sign my own copy.

Also does it matter what Thai address I will write the application form? Just asking because my wife is running her business in other city where I am living.

And lastly, planning to visit there on Wednesday or Thursday, which one is better?

There used to be a green bus from Chiang Mai to Mukdahan but can't find the schedule anymore. What is the best or most convenient option to travel within 36 hours from Chiang Mai to Mukdahan.

I hate flying because I have a phobia.
