You can enter via land(and I think domestic flights) if you have both vaccinations, and a negative test in the past 72 hours.

Once I am done with that adventure, I will gladly go back to grind micro SNG in my tiny room in Ladprao.
Thai girls hate French and Brits equally.
Source: I'm French, but I sometimes pretend that I am other nationalities because they hate the french.
Pro tip: pretend that you are Swiss (cuz they know where the real cheese comes from).
Also, fun fact, most French speak better English than the average brit.
Up until a few weeks ago it would have been a great idea, was plenty of bars doing lock ins(11pm close, so after that, I would stop drinking past 2am most nights) and one bar in rawai in particular was packed with hookers nightly(was open air and didnt close before 1am ever, yolo), I actually got arrested during a lock in along with ~20 thais 10 farangs, A farang actually fell through the roof trying to sneak out, he then crashed his bike on his way to the police station lol rough night. Insta expected a huge fine, but after a few hours waiting at the police station, they just gave us a talking to and said not to post on social media if we are partying after hours. Muay thai was no problems.
As of today, there is no alcohol served in restaurants or bars(you can probs get around that but yano), no recreation in bars, pool etc, and they all have to close at 9pm, they also doing no gatherings also. Muay thai gyms are closed(although reg gyms remain open), mask checks town to town, etc. In theory you could still come, train in a gym, cycle around and bang hooks via tinder, but I imagine you can do exactly the same anywhere else in Thailand atm.
There is noticeably more people here than before sandbox, reports where that they fell 25% short of the target, but I think we will all agree those where lofty ambitions. Feel pretty bad for anyone who has made the trip tbh.
