@Oleg **********

you just got scammed by a corrupt cop :( I actually used my IDP for 3 years :-) before I finally broke down and got my Thailand driver's license / motorcycle license I was stopped many times and ask for my license I showed my USA driver's license along with my IDP which was old and faded and torn. Never got fined

What should I do if my Thai girlfriend's tourist visa application to the U.S. is denied?

@David ********

she had a complete dossier filled out mentioning that she would travel with me. As far as I know they didn't even get that far into the papers. She was 40 years old with two school-age children owned her own home owned her own car and had a mother and father that she helps take care of.

7 years ago I entered Thailand visa on arrival/ Visa exemption and when I showed up to extend my stay they find me either 1,000 or 1900 THB I've had a bad taste of that in my mouth for a long time :-) I stayed in several hotels, but when I showed up to extend my stay. They said that I had never TM 30

we will be staying at several different hotels. I've heard some hotels do not report. The last thing I want is for my daughter to have to pay a fine

Is Chiang Mai wheelchair friendly?

It's really not funny but even though I'm partially paralyzed. I personally am amused when I see a wheelchair ramp here in Chiang Mai. The steepness of the ramp is such that even Arnold Schwarzenegger couldn't push me up the ramp 555. No, Chiang Mai, and all of Southeast Asia is not wheelchair friendly
