On my last trip I discovered that a lot of places now accept Samsung Wallet Pay formerly know as Samsung Pay. Which probably means they also accept Apple Pay. I used my Samsung phone with Samsung...

Border runs via land crossings may not give you 45 additional days. Flying into BKK from a nearby country.

May be the way to do what you want. Check on how long an entry visa you will get when...

I sincerely doubt you will be given the extra 15 days unless you get lucky and the immigration officer is not paying attention.

I have been warned not to overstay because immigration will look at...

I thought about going to that military beach made somewhat famous by Joe, the Youtube vlogger. But on closer viewing it doesn't seem like anything special. I would think a drive 1 hour from Pattaya...

I sometimes wonder about the good posters like Giotto, OTH, Mick Licker, Duniawala, 1 Ball, Pita123, Haven123 and (more recently) FL Hawk who seem to have disappeared. I know Giotto made a surprise...

The article indicates there are bears in the jungle. Is that accurate? I've never heard that before.

Laundry: In Pattaya very cheap. There are laundries on seemingly every Soi and they are dirt cheap. Many hotels do laundry at a good price as well. In BKK, I google to find a laundry near my hotel.

I received my second Pfizer shot about a week ago without side effects from either dose. I did it for others not just for me. I believe our best chance to make this go away is to vaccinate everybody....

No doubt farang will pay plenty for the vaccine in Thailand. That's if the South African variant doesn't kill us all.

Interesting. I didn't think the vaccine lowered your chances of getting Covid. And I don't think we know yet about the vaccine's ability to stop us from being contagious. I am under the belief the...

I don't understand the rule disallowing outside food to be delivered. Surely it can be done safely without personal contact. It would help out the local restaurants and the hotels would still get the...

I still like visiting Amsterdam and its RLD. But it seems the girls are primarily Romanian or Bulgarian and they don't appeal to me. I loved it when the girls were Polish, Czech, Hungarian, etc....

I would always spend 2 nights in Hong Kong on the way to BKK enabling me to be fresh upon BKK arrival. Last year I flew non-stop LA to Osaka, then to BKK. Osaka is a great stopover. I plan to...

I'd love to pay B50 to keep my number but don't know how to do it. I'm topping up B30 from the USA Every month or so to keep my number. I looked for a way to reach their customer service from the US...

I understand lower levels mean an increased desire for sex. What about a need for Viagra or Cialis?

It's not necessarily the look but it would be cool to tap a Prime Minister.

Well I'm not going to let you guys talk about politics without jumping in myself. Do any of you find yourself sexually attracted to Jacinda Ardern? I know I am.

I'm guessing the average age of people on these Thai forums is 50-53 but I doubt anybody knows for sure. I haven't heard from our favorite Uncle in a while. Hope he's doing well. I miss reading about...

I'm in the US and my AIS 1-2-Call Sim card expires in early August, 2020. Due to the virus I won't be returning before August. Can I keep my SIM active beyond August by doing small top ups each month...

I leave my American Express card at home when I travel internationally. Put simply, businesses that accept credit cards always take MasterCard or Visa cards. They don't always take AMEX cards.

The virus does have a unique Chinese characteristic. It comes from China! This has nothing to do with Trump or Biden. I don't like either. I also doesn't like people throwing words like racist (or in...

Which is precisely why I have no problem calling this the Chinese Virus or Wuhan Virus. It's about the origin. Bill Maher said it best in the link below.

I would suggest Bodyguard, a five or six part series on Netflix. With apologies to my UK friends, turn on closed captioning as the accents are very thick and difficult for us Yanks to understand. It...

I KNOW the reported numbers are wrong. Two days ago an American friend living near Buriram called me. He was in the hospital with the Wuhan virus somewhere in that area. He could barely speak and I...

Just curious. In your estimation how old were these old geezers?
