Land border runs can be costly and a pain to deal with. An army of ppl waiting to try to rip you off. Take a flight to a neighboring country, Vietnam, for example. Do an immediate turnaround, or spend a few days there, then come back.
And it always looked like a headache gathering the requirements, then mailing your passport off. Ah, to each their own. I'll spend what's usually 3ish hours at immigration.
Man, I just don't understand why people go through all the hassle of applying for a tourist visa if they're just coming for less than 2 months. Plus, 2 months visa exempt only costs 1900 baht...isn't a 60D tourist visa more expensive, or about the same?
It's very little bag space and better safe than sorry. Plugging my cell phone in direct to the outlet makes it blazing hot. Because of that, I never plugged my laptop in without the converter. My hair clippers go haywire without it. You all, go ahead without one. For me, I like running 110 on 110 devices, And yes, Mark, I do know what I'm talking about...do you??
Yes, it's not just the adapter you need. You will need a voltage converter. Don't listen to all the ones saying no problem, same plug, just plug it in. You will fry and blow-up all your electronics. You need a 220v to 110v converter. I got mine off Amazon before I left and it's lasted years...does great, multi plug unit. The brand is Bestek.
