Have you been in Thailand before? Thailand has many of the best beaches and islands in the world. The culture is unique and people are friendly. Many of foreigners are relocating to Thailand for several reasons.

In the town, Bangkok, has all the civilize and technology. Convenient transportation by Bus, Sky train and underground transportation. There is also boat transportation for the river, Chao Praya River, which is in the center of capital city.

Night life in Bangkok is very crowd of people. There is pub and bar for straights and gays on the same road in Silom and many areas.

Before October 1, 2006, get Thailand visa is very easy. Many countries can have visa on arrival for 30 days. Then just leave at any border and get in again you will get another 30 days waive visa stamp.

Now all change!

“On October 1 the Kingdom of Thailand introduced a new visa policy to restrict the number of times a foreigner can enter the country during a certain period of time.

The policy states that one can only stay in Thailand for 90 days in a period of six months, after which one must leave the country and stay outside for another 90 days before they can re-enter.”

This mean you will still get 30 days visa on arrival and if it going to expire, you just leave at the border and get in again you will get another 30 days. If you already stay in Thailand for 90 days, you need to leave the country or stay outside for another 90 days!

If you apply for visa at any Thailand Embassy, you will get 60 days single entry visa and then you can extend only another 30 days for 1,900 Baht. ($US 50)

Vsa expiration date as shown on the visa, is called visa validity.

The Expiration Date for the visa should not be confused with the authorized length of your stay in Thailand, given to you by the immigration officer at port-of-entry. The visa expiration date has nothing to do with the authorized length of your stay in Thailand for any given visit.

Imagine you are having fun on your trip and then you have an accident (Well nobody wants that, but who knows?) then you will have to pay a lot because you don’t have insurance!So an accident can’t wait until you get back home, but it will need to be handled immediatly to protect a part of yourself.

Then not only are you frustrated that you didn’t have fun, but you are also frustrated that you have to pay for the doctor/medicine cost!

Here is a story happened to myself.

I went to Flagstaff in the northern part of Arizona to see the first snow in my life (I had flown from Thailand and had never ever seen the snow) so I am enjoying the bright, clean, light and cold from the snow very much.

Unfortunately I didn’t buy the travel insurance before the trip and I got some headache and pain focused on my left ear.

During the driving (it’s a one-day roadtrip) it caused my ears to pop a lot, I could say more than 20 times because we drove in to the high pressure (drive to north and cold)

On the way back home, I hurt so much and got sick also. My left ear couldn’t pop anymore so I can’t hear well and I heard myself breathe and chew food so loud.

I had tried so many things and many suggestions, but it didn’t help or even get better. I got better from feeling sick, but my ear was still the same.

I was in that situation for like 2 weeks and I couldn’t get over that sick. Finally I went to see the doctor before my ear got infected and I couldn’t hear anything anymore.

It cost me $200!! I have never paid that much in my life for a doctor visit (not including the medicine)

So If I had insurance I would pay only $10 - $20. I don’t have a choice and I chose my body, not my money.

Now you know that the travel insurance is important!
