Stranded tourists: Russian couple sleeping under the rocks for weeks after Krabi hotel shuts them out

[DJ54]

Read this a few months ago...he lived in the forest 

 

Knight was only 20 years old when he walked away from society, not to be seen again for more than a quarter of a century. He had been working for less than a year installing home and vehicle alarm systems near Boston, Massachusetts, when abruptly, without giving notice to his boss, he quit his job. He never even returned his tools. He cashed his final pay cheque and left town.

Why do you see that as a joke?

At their age, camping on a tropical beach, perfect! I did in Morocco, new Zealand, Australia. not so tropical England and Wales. Many people love camping in Thailand also. GET A LIFE !

maybe there have been complaints uttered that they'd paid big bucks for 5 Star?

 - well they still have it, and more... - albeit 5 billions stars ????

As long as they're able to find food, then I don't see the issue. The question is - would they have preferred to continue living outside or are they grateful for being able to stay in a hotel? My hunch is the latter,  but I wouldn't rule out the former.

 

they also need to be causing no damage to the natural environment with fire, rubbish and human waste. to be honest hostels are so cheap in thailand there is really no need for anyone to be living outdoors

Gte one yourself. It´s just like this. Thailand does not offer camping at all places. Therefore they tried to help these people. Nothing wrong with that.

Ahhh cheap charlies winging it in a tent. No worries with that as long as theirs a 7 Eleven close by for some red cup and coffee mate in the mornin. You can throw in a jack and jill cookie trio for 5 baht.

They said they were not planning on going back to Russia until the coronavirus outbreak improved

You guys aren't getting it, this is about Russia.  Russia is exploding with covid-19 right now.  It may become the next "Italy" in terms of infected and death.  Healthcare resources have always been minimal there.

 

These two are camping out most likely to save money as nobody knows how long this emergency will last.

Unlike many western countries, there are no laws about camping in Thailand T T B O M K., i did not say there was anything wrong with helping this couple or as you put it "these people" i was simply saying camping at that age is great, I have a great life thanks with wonderful memories of camping, and the skills it can bring. ????️. Dib dib dob Akela. do you like my toggle?

Where did it say that?

First  in the main story----2nd from sanook.......(In Thai)

This is what you claimed was reported...

"...Or they Excepted [sic]the help when offered it", (whatever that means).

So, no, it did not say that in either report.

If they have a problem, they could go to a temple and get the help they need, place for sleep as well as food everyday.

Of course, Thais always catter to tourists like this and there is always a temple nearby ... Just move a few rocks and you'll find one

There are not many times they have to do it but if somebody really need, disregarding nationality, the temples always give a place for sleep and food.

 

And Yes, there is always a temple nearby.

The picture of the church in Russia looks like from a fairy-tale.

Thank you One More Farang, this is your best post ever.

To Iron Tongue post -'you guys aren't getting it….'

The number of infected people in Russia is 52.763 and 456 people died.

This morning report on virus cases : US, Spain, Italy, France, Germany and UK -the total number of deaths (all together ) in these countries is 134,467 

Hope it is going down in every country , luckily the virus is gradually losing its potential and 97% of infected people are milder cases.

I would pay good money to be shipwrecked on a tropical beach with a young Russian babe.its the sand that gets in all them little places that pees me off.
