When I've came to Thailand without a visa from the USA they checked in the computer as well. You could use an old ticket at a consulate to get a tourist visa though.

But after I booked, they e-mailed me: Your onward ticket will be processed and sent to you within 30 - 180 minutes within our working hours.

Got my ticket, the guy verified it at the transfer counter and everything was good. Would recommend this website to anyone.

Is the form you fill in to extend 30day stamp the same as the form to extend a tourist visa?

Was trying to register a new account since there's so much drama associated with this one, but I'm stuck with this profile for some reason.

Anyways, I have new questions. (For anyone interested in what's happened since October, it's a long story. There's some new work I can upload a PDF of, but the month of November involved a kidnapping in Mexico, a freeway accident at 60 mph and being deported from the Bahamas with kidney failure).

Spent Dec and Jan up in Chicago, and the last month on the West Coast camping out of my car. Planning to be back in Thailand at the beginning of May.

Reason I bring up Chicago is I signed up for Russian dating sites while there and got incredible response rates. (Think it had to due with my profile picture in a nice sport coat - apparently Russian woman are attracted to men on the more serious side/not immature.)

The response rate from Russian women was very similar to the response rate when signing up for Thai sites a couple weeks before heading there last time. (Hundreds of interested women within a couple days).

Problem is (and was) the interest from Russian women evaporated to nothing - same thing happened on Thai dating sites - hundreds of messages before being shut down for no reason. (The Russian profile appears to be "shadow banned" not official - can still login, but no matches.)

Down to brass tacks though. As you can tell I'm looking for a lady friend (still). And since I'll be heading to Thailand in a couple months I'd like to try the Thai dating sites once again. (Started Pimsleur language lessons again as well). I remember Harvie's blog having good advice, but don't remember which specific sites I signed up for.

Long story short, any help finding a romantic partner is appreciated. I've been doing Tinder and Bumble here in America (also used Tinder in Thailand last time and only got responses from lady boys). If you need to see profile pictures I can upload those along with the work PDF mentioned).

I subscribe to NordVPN . After you connect to a server, always check your IP here: ipleak.net . Make sure you have a stable internet line.
In my condo we use AIS fibre. Speed is not important , just need to avoid down time during a session.

7 years on Pokerstars, been travelling in and out of EU, cashing out multiple times.

But my biggest cash out only been $2500 to Neteller. Of course I can not guarantee they will be as friendly if you win the big one.

Don't know where I'll be living yet. Wanted to do something different this time. Did BKK as a single guy last time. Was thinking BKK with a girlfriend would be different, or maybe Pattaya would be different too. My Skype is rageofgenerals.

About the golf, funding never came through. It's still an option if there ever was money. About "weak knees" when athletes get laid. This is an old wives tale, just like the urban legend if you take lsd 7 times then you're legally insane. Mike Tyson might've even talked about this on Joe Rogan recently, and he was ferocious while getting laid. There's probably even science with female pheromones or something and better performance.

Sports and sex kind of go hand in hand tying together talk of golf and "weak knees". There's no point investing in a golfer/athlete if sponsors can't slap your face on merchandise/supermarket magazines to sell things. He needs sex appeal in other words which is why I think the interest in my dating profiles is a good thing for potential investors to see.

What I found a little surprising about all the interest from Russia women is they don't need your money for the most part. The Russian economy is doing very well, and Russia is not a "developing" country like Thailand. I had heard and saw how just being white in Thailand was enough to get laid because it implied more money & privelage than a 3rd world country. But just being white is not enough for Russian women, as they have white men with money in their own country. They seem to be attracted to "established", pro/mature/serious because you can be a clown with money.

Another query about visas. I'm currently in Laos and wanted to get a tourist visa, but they have changed the process here. Now one needs to book an appointment online, but the next available slot is on the 25th. I got 30 days at Myanmar and extended for a further 30 immigration, them came to Laos and have been here for about a week.

If I cross overland back into thailand will I be given the same visa I was given in Myanmar or will I only get 15 days?

Yeah apparently 2x per calendar year overland, haven't heard if they deny entry or give 15 days plus a warning, after that

Sounds like OP has only done 1 this year and spent a week in Laos so he should be ok, sometimes they don't like it if you try to re-enter on the same day

I've left and came back within 30 minutes at the Kanchanaburi border with Myanmar, not a problem. They are used to people doing visa runs on the same day.

Yeah I've only done 1, but what I'm being told is that one can't do them back to back. If your previous visa was an exempt they are more than likely to only give 15 days.

Think it's best to just get a flight to BK / CM tbh, unless I can get confirmation somehow that I will get 30 at nongkai.

If I fly luang to CM then 30 + 30 extendable is a lock right?

The exchange rate! When I first came to Thailand in 2004 I was getting 75THB to the GBP, these days, under 40. Pretty rough.

Other than that the urbanisation of some of the more popular islands, Samui, Panghan etc. As little as 15 years ago they were far less built up to the point of being unrecognisable from their current incarnation. Samui for example, Chaweng was always more built up than say, Lamai, with the latter being a couple of boutique resorts along the beach and not much else. Notthe case anymore.

Not much else has changed, Patts is still a hotbed of drink, drugs, sex, beaches and shopping, which is nice.
