A passionate 52-year-old Thai man is on an arduous mission to prove his true love to a woman he met online. Setting out from his hometown in Nakhon Nayok province, the man is traversing a challenging 1200 km on foot to reach the love of his life in Satun province on the most romantic day of Thailand — Valentine’s Day.

 

Mr. Suthep Lomjit aka “Maew” set off on his journey on January 14th in the hopes of uniting with his girlfriend, Mrs. Thanapa Kheawon, who lives 1,200km away in time for Valentine’s Day on February 14th.

 

In one of the various documenting videos he posted on TikTok, Suthep revealed that he had met his 56-year-old girlfriend online but never in person, so he wanted to meet her in person to propose to her to “show everyone that true love can be found on social media.”

 

His videos received millions of views on TikTok and tremendous support from both netizens and people along the way. Rescue workers are following behind him in vehicle as he hikes to keep him in check.

Hope she hung around for a month waiting for him to arrive...

 

It's only 1200km, who knows maybe she will meet you half way? Isn't love grand, this remines me when I was 15 years old with so much energy to burn off. Lets hope she still lives there.

He's listening to this song:

The Proclaimers - 500 miles

1200k? That's nothing compared to how far the average farang goes for a bit of skirt... granted, most of em don't walk it. Women pick up on weakness, however. He should perhaps have a rethink and make her trudge the 1200. ????

Even more impressive, he's doing it in full town crier regalia. 

His love is clearly without limits !

Oh Yeah! Oh yeah!

He will must to show to his beloved that also he have at least … a CAR. If not, I think his love will not be reciprocated.

Ah, Valentine's Day, every time I hear someone say Happy Valentine's Day, I cringe, why, because when I ask them what they know of Saint Valentine, or the reason that they are celebrating Valentine's Day, no one can really answer me.

 

 

Happy Valentine's anyway

Wot?

I would call Catfish TV show first....5555

Just one question?

WHY?

If he's got to walk to go see his GF she certainly will say no. After all, no money no honey. Specially here in Thailand.

What a distance to go to meet an unshaven Nigerian on overstay...

I guess then he will run back. 

Bad plan, a month off work so he loses his job, cannot put walked for one month on his resume.

Woman says NO, why you not drive a car?  And now you lost job!  I not marry a man without a car and job!  55555

This was on Thai TV today, he made it she was still there, and they gave each other a very big hug. for the cameras? let's see how it unfolds over the next few days. 

Pussy will pull you much farther than dynamite will blow you. ????????
