  1. The 7 day minimum stay in Phuket does not apply to you as a domestic traveler, or does it?
  2. Yes I am aware it was cancelled. My question was for those who already completed Test and Go (or any other length of quarantine) in BKK and are already in Thailand. Will those people be able to travel to/from Phuket with no restrictions as domestic travelers? They can stay in Phuket any number of days and 7 days would not apply to them? I think @petehoax was in that category of people that's why I quoted him.
  3. Thanks for that! I got a quick question on the current domestic travel rules, which is probably answered somewhere in those posts on PA, but might be easier to resolve here. Once out of Test&Go quarantine in BKK and free to roam, if I fly to Phuket domestically, can I leave Phuket anytime, or do I have to follow the same 7 days minimum stay as those who came to Phuket internationally? Put it another way, are vaccinated domestic travelers free to come and go from Phuket any way they like, or what rules do they have to follow?
  4. Looks nice on photos. How did you book it? It does not show any booking options from Google Maps. EDIT; my bad, I did not read your post well. Booking.com it is.
  5. I'd like to explore that option too. What sites do you use to search for all serviced apartments in a particular area, with reviews?
  6. I'll be sure to make a note to try it there next time. +1. Pepper Lunch is a very decent quick steak option. Go for the top menu item, it's still cheaper than getting it in a steakhouse.
  7. I should have the SIM card somewhere, I think I misplaced it. If I pop it in, I might be able to get the text, if I got balance and roaming works. In the past it worked 50/50 for me. The problem at this point, I think my SIM is expired altogether.
  8. Need to reinstall LINE on a new phone. Right now it's registered to a Thailand mobile number. I know LINE will send a verification text to the mobile number. I'm not in Thailand now. What to do? I don't want to change my LINE number to my main mobile number in my home country. I want a separate mobile number for my LINE. I tried to use a Skype or Google Voice number but it does not allow it. It seems it only allows official registered mobile numbers from major carriers in each country. Any ideas?
  9. Very true. Not only FLs, this is a popular area where bargirls live. OnNut is right after the river bridge, so I think it drops the prices somewhat and makes it just affordable for many categories of locals.
  10. Rama9 and Ratchada is not a bad area overall. The STREET mall has lots of nice places to eat and a very popular hangout place with the locals. Major soapies are also in the same area.
  11. +1 on OnNut. Not as expensive as the very center, yet close enough to the action. If you are too far from Nana/Soi Cowboy area, some more popular girls are wary riding too far away into the outskirts with you. You might occasionally get rejected by a hot girl for that reason (unless you are willing to do an ST hotel). OnNut got a recently built mall with restaurants, lots of street food. Tesco Lotus right by the BTS.
  12. More active discussion on this on the Pattaya forum. The good news, there are lots of negative reviews about Thailand hotels, but this is the only such incident. The guy must have really pissed them off.
  13. Unread Content seems to be updating now. But I noticed ever since the last downtime the whole forums kind of went very quiet...almost no discussions happening. Not sure if the technical issues are affecting that or what. This is in stark contrast with the Pattaya forum where active discussions are going on everyday.
  14. Seeing some updates in the new content now, so maybe it worked...
  15. Having the same issues. I just posted another topic with similar complaints. I did not reply to this topic because this topic header showed 0 replies, so I figured there is no activity here... but now I see multiple replies when I opened it......another issue right here.
  16. The forum was briefly down a couple of weeks ago (maintenance?), and ever since it came back up I'm seeing odd problems. I don't see new content updated in the New Content Area, I get an error when I submit a posting (but it still gets submitted), I don't get notifications when others post in my topics, I get an error when I try to follow topics (even the ones I created)..... is it just me, or do others have similar issues??
  17. The news looks credible. Looks like an extreme situation here, but still disturbing https://onemileatatime.com/jailed-thailand-negative-hotel-review/
  18. 🤣🤣🤣 The condoms were washed, dried, and reshaped with a dildo under unhygienic conditions, said authorities who busted the illegal operation. https://www.asiaone.com/asia/raid-uncovers-over-300000-used-condoms-recycled-sale-vietnam
  19. And for Android, I think there is something called an APK file you can download bypassing the Play Store. I wonder if US will just block app downloads, or block the WeChat servers in some way as well, just like China is blocking Google now. WeChat is a must have if you travel in Asia, even though it's not that popular in Thailand.
  20. US is banning WeChat downloads https://www.cnbc.com/2020/09/18/tiktok-deal-still-has-a-chance-but-wechat-dead-in-the-us-says-senior-administration-official.html Will those who are not in the US still be able to download it from the PlayStore or AppleStore? WeChat is not popular in Thailand, but still very useful to have. Some Thai girls with Singapore and China connections use it in Thailand.
  21. Are you asking about the current situation? Everything has changed now, if you are on the Pattaya forum there are discussions there right now about the new 90 day long term visa, and all the requirements that go with it.
  22. Can you give some pointers on this one? How do you identify them? Would be nice to get some pink to break the routine lol.
  23. Awesome recap of MNL. +1 on the EDSA Complex. More reasonably priced than Burgos, with similar quality girls. The Go-gos are also nicer and more spacious. Downside, it's a little inconveniently located, taxi in and out is a must. To complete the parallels between BKK and MNL, the LA Cafe bar in MNL is kind of Thermae of BKK for FL pickup (but also different)...even with the same crap going on should you get BKK-nostalgic - better looking girls flock to Asian customers and shrug at westerners, lol.
  24. Bei Otto, the German place on Soi 20. Technically a German-style breakfast, which is kinda American, but better 🙂 plus German food market and awesome bakery in the same place
  25. I'm not going to list 10 items since everything I know has already been suggested. Except I did not see anyone mentioning the Contemporary Art Museum (MOCA). This is a world-class museum in BKK, and an absolute gem (many other museums in BKK are really sub par IMHO). It's a pain to get to, Mo Chit BTS and taxi, and expensive at 500 baht, but totally worth it.
