Hua Hin Forum

Having lived until 2007 in So. Cal. and for 40 years in Palos Verdes area, you won't find everything you list in one place. Many good and accurate suggestions here so far. My Thai wife and I like having a condo in Bangkok to go to for a few days as a change of pace while we own a home here in Hua Hi...

Don't really understand all the fuss here over the 800,000 thb deposit in Bank. You don't need to have anything in a Thai bank. Just read the renewal requirements from immigration. As an American, I go to the embassy and fill out a form to verify my monthly income. I can put any amount I want on the...

Sounds great doesn't it. I did the same with all my important documents on all the various computers I used at work before I left the states to move here in 07. Destroyed the files and papers on those computers so nobody could get them. A few months ago my 8 gig memory stick went south. Now I have n...

Why are you only taking 20,000 thb at ATM? Bangkok Bank ATM will give you 25,000 thb per transaction. Over time saves some fees.

Get a P.A. system for the quizmaster! No need to repeat question 4 times over that loud fun crowd.

Food has been GREAT and a real bargain but far too much. Filled up on first plate last time. Had to push it down when second plate arrived and could not eat it all.

This American farang really enjoyed your British institution of Quiz Night. Food was GREAT and plentyfull. Like the way it was served to our tables this time rather than taking a break to go stand in line. Quizmaster Chris is now in Bangledesh for a short while and I am sure another one is planned o...

Next time you renew, as HHfarang said that most do not know or understand is that you DON't need to have 800,000 thb tied up in in the wonderful fee laden Thailand banks. All you need is the Notarized Certificate from the U.S. Embassy that you have XXXXX monthly income. You put down the amount and s...

Add me to the list of Generally Pleased with living in Thailand. When I came here I did so I could live a good life on my limited retirement income. One failed love and another happy relationship and marriage later and I am as pleased as I could expect to be in a country that lacks direction, lies a...

Used book store has moved across the street and up across from the train station across from the small plaza in front of the station. About 2-3 stores in from corner.

When and where is this used book swap on the 6th?

When I moved to Thailand a year and a half ago, I just sent (via postal) some clothes and a very few things I wanted to keep with me. I am sure you could obtain an address to send to if only to a Realtor your working with here. Lots of good ones that advertise here on the forum. Recommend leasing fo...

I just went their last week to do the same. Arrived at 10:30am and they called me up immediately after filling out form. Asked if I could return at 1pm and came back at 1:20 and went directly to window (as instructed) and retrieved my passport with more pages added. Must have been something unusual ...
