Get a visa if you're staying 60 days. Otherwise you only get 30 which can be extended 7 more days.

Is it okay to enter and extend for 30 days at Thailand or should I get myself a two months visa before entering Thailand.

I did some google research and only confused myself so if someone knows would apprechiate the info alot. My nationality is Finnish.

get a tourist visa(i think they are free now also). then after 60 days you can go to immigration offices and extend for another 30 days for 1900 baht, no need to leave the country

Looking for advice on a Hotel for a week somewhere near Khao San Rd or within 10 min taxi as I will have my 13 year old daughter with me. I met a young lady at a massage joint in Khao San road great massage and she had a degree in accountancy, and got me thinkin. We are offering all travel free accommodation air con private room plus neg pay in cash or bank account. Invited to all Family activities incl Fishing crabbing netball basketball martial arts etc. Family is me and wife My daughter and my son.

I can search for hotels but I prefer a bit of Local or previous knowledge as most things sound great on the net. Bummer Jspill is in Macao as he seemed to know his way around.

Just a short question , can you log in on Pokerstars without any issues from Thailand when the account was opened in your homencountry, no IP restrictions or do you cheat by using a VPN service ?

I'm already doing it , but maybe Pokerstars will block you after a while ?

Don't need a VPN because Thailand isn't a banned country. You are allowed to play in non-banned countries while travelling.

Some do it for years, no VPN, and Stars never asks what's going on. In the rare event they freeze your account temporarily for security reasons, you just email and say it's you playing on holiday from Thailand, and they unfreeze it same day.

Stars will usually know you're on a VPN when you try to deposit with a Thai bank card or Skrill on Thai IP, if so you can just Teamviewer into a friend's computer back home and do it that way.

But your Stars is probably still linked to your European address since you're asking that question... in which case you don't need a VPN. Just deposit as normal. The only issue with depositing is if you're trying to use a Thai bank card or Skrill on Thai IP. Using a foreign VISA card within Thailand still works, or Neteller.

The "can't deposit" only applied to Skrill and maybe some other methods, not all.

For example, if you have a credit/debit card issued in your home country that works on stars, then that can still be used even if you are in Thailand.

Read this three times and still don't understand. Are you offering to pay someone to find you a hotel for a week and be your guide? I've never randomly booked a hotel from agonda or booking and been disappointed. Just pick your price and go, everything above 1k baht is decent enough.

I also don't understand why the massage girls degree in accountancy is related.

NO
I am not very good writing what I mean

Accountancy or even a good grasp of math so she can help my daughter with her math

It is a paid position for someone who wants a paid holiday with a family that is very easy going. The Massages are for me and my wife deep tissue as I am old and it helps my Blood circulation etc. My wife works in the Shiploading area and her feet give her dramas.

As for the hotel I have been lucky but last time in August wasn't so great and the prices have doubled in the last 2 weeks, but I will just take something and hope it is safe for my Daughter.

Thanks for the reply , maybe she can teach me how to write as well.

Ah ok I see. Hotels in general double this time of year due to high season, so it's pretty common for prices to go up. Sounds like an ideal job for a girl working as a masseur with an accountancy degree.

I think most posters here are younger without families so their hotel recommendations might not be suitable to what you're looking for, but I'm sure someone can chime in with a good recommendation.

I'm coming to Bangkok for new years with some friends. After doing some research Ce La Vie and Route 66 seem like our best options.

Any other clubs I should look into? Somewhere with normal Thai people would be ideal.

Also any other tips about nye in BKK would be appreciated. We're staying at the aloft hotel if that makes any difference.

Thanks!

He said "normal" Thai people. Levels has alot of the abnormal kind mixed in with the "normals". Actually the entire Soi 11 in itself is loaded with abnormal kinds of people.

If you want to be around hiso girls that you wont be able to communicate with go to funky villa. I think somebody said the club next to funky villa is good too. Highly doubt you'll be picking up there without speaking Thai.

RCA will have some farang hunters that arent hookers running around though. Not sure how keen the "normal" girls will be to go home with tourist in a hotel but im sure its pretty doable if you got game and arent a bunch of fat dudes.

You could try the other clubs and see how you guys fair. If that doesnt work just hit up climax and levels and you'll have the sure thing!

i would categorise levels as a freelancer club. they just charge more than climax and have some other nationalities in there.

Thats what i meant by "abnormal" it being a hooker club. Just levels has more non hookers mixed in then the other hooker clubs in BKK IME.

Paying a thai person to teach math is definitely not a good idea. if she gives good massages then fine, but for math tutor you are way better off finding a white person. there are plenty of farang here who would be better tutors for your kid.

Any club will be great on NYE. go very early as they fill up fast(before 9pm). Traffic will be very, very bad so plan accordingly

funky villa hasn't been "hiso" for years. Demo, the club next to it does have some nice girls though. Also any "hiso"(makes more than 20k baht/month) girl will be able to speak some english

levels is definitely not a freelancer club. yes there are girls working there but they are the minority for sure. compare to clubs like mixx, insomnia where the majority of girls want money, and climax where its a very high %. Obviously this depends on who you are, what you look like etc.

Anyone know how/where to get a "government issued ID" here?
Got some bull**** message from stars-

If you are located in Thailand, we will need to update your account to reflect this.

In order to update your account with this information, we ask that you please send us the following documents at your earliest convenience:

1. A clear copy of your driver's license (front and back) or other government issued photo ID.

2. A copy of a recent utility bill clearly showing your full name, current address, and statement date (no older than 3 months). In lieu of a utility bill, we will accept a landline phone bill, lease, title deed, bank statement, payslip, or insurance bill, which includes your full name, current address, and statement date. We will not be able to accept personal letters or online statements.

(tldr- need some photo ID) I would prefer not to get the drivers license since it seems like a pain in the ass to take the test
thanks fellas
