Why are Thai women bigger in 2024?

[VocalNeal]

Singapore to UK would be easy. Lots of cargo ships have "owners" cabins which, if the owner is not on board...

We used to carry up to 6 passengers to South America. Not the quickest method but...

Quality of cabin depends on the vessel. Same for food.

Container ships don't have a lot of open deck space.

Take more than a few books

What was the cost ?

A good few years since I investigated.......but it was eye-watering.

 

I thought at the time what a brilliant way to travel the world (for me anyway)........one look at the price and the idea died a death.

How did you deal with stowaways ?

What would you do if you found someone hiding in the life boats ?

The one's with a hook and an eye-patch are the worst.

In the total absence of any cruise ships plying the waters, buy yourself a rubber dinghy with outboard motor and set sail

Maybe you could buy a ship and go? As both of you say you have time and money... Bargains start at only $10m, though most are $100-300m...

Not clicking on that in case I make an impulse purchase.

Cruise industry pretty much on life support, but if you look at the round the world itineraries, I'm sure you can customise the start and end points when/if they start running again.   You'll be limited a bit by the number of cruises that call on Phuket and Lamchambang though.

There are not many cargo ships going directly from Bkk to US or Europe. Most of them leaving Bkk are feeders for reloading the containers in Singapore. Therefore, it would be more useful to get by train to Singapore and board there. All info about the forwarding companies and the ship schedules are on internet.

Put them in the same stalls as the deck cargo polo ponies!

Retired ships Master carting Containers..We would have occasional passengers or supernumeraries as they where called. Paying just to get from A to B and that's all you got. No extra service just a room and 3 meals a day. The corona is probably scaring shipping companies now and I doubt if they would take the risk anymore.

Indeed. And I ain't a young man looking for adventure. A cruise would do...without too many stop offs..

seems doable

 

By using Ferries.co.uk you will be able to find Ferries to Thailand with all leading ferry companies. ... Ferries.co.uk presents 429 ferries to Thailand, with 12 ferry companies sailing from 47 ports with a choice of up to 46 ferry destinations in Thailand.

Brilliant ta.

You had to ask about stowaways so this is the story... A sailor was walking over the Sydney harbor bridge and saw a lady obviously about to jump. He approached the lass and offered her to come with him sailing the seas and he would take her away from all of her problems and to another country. The catch was in return for her escaping her problems she would have to have sex with him every day. She agreed and he took her back to his ship where he hid her in a lifeboat and fed and gave her water and had sex every day. A month later the Captain was doing a safety check of the lifeboats and discovered her hiding. She jumps up and says which country are we in have we arrived? The Captain says Lady this is the Manly Ferry....!!

How to travel by boat/ cruise from Thailand  to Britain

You'll have to contact Captain Jack Sparrow

[champers]

See if you can cadge a lift back home with HMS Elizabeth aircraft carrier when she rocks up soon in these parts (subject to not being sunk by the Chinese navy first).

[Hanuman2547]

If the boat journey doesn't work out or you feel like it might be too cramped, a guy called Ray McDonald did a TV program travelling from Bangkok to Brighton UK by train. He travelled From Bangkok to Vientiane by train, then bus to Hanoi, bus to China, then by train through China, Russia, eastern Europe, Germany, and France. Ray, despite his name, is a luk krung Thai TV and movie star.  The videos are on youtube.  Most of it is in Thai but once he gets to China there is more English spoken.

Use a live sea traffic map to find a cargo ship, then offer $ to the captain to take you on board.

Tramp steamer?? Probably a few centuries ago... 5555

I traveled by tramp steamer from Europe  to Africa in the 90s. The Med could be fierce.  My first  travel as a teen was crossing from Great  Britain  to Europe  via ferry on the English Channel.  Also could be rough.

Once you get to Vietnam you can travel to anywhere in Europe by Train.

WOW , https://www.cargoshipvoyages.com/ is a disappointing eye opener !

I thought this was the way out for the ones that don't want the so called "vaccines" and won't be able to fly without a covid passport.

Few ship to where I want to go , no pets allowed > I want to take my cats to europe . Takes longer than I thought . Prices are very high , I even wanted to take my thai car with me back , not to drive because that isn't allowed .

So now we have to wait until the chinese silkroad is finished to drive back ?

Bummer !
