How to make a Thai visa run in Penang , Malaysia

Image
As I promised you, here is a short article about doing a visarun in Georgetown, Penang, Malaysia.  This is written on 4th of July ( Happy Birthday U. S) of 2018. Vi sa run in Penang for making a new Thai visa has been fairly easy before, but the rules and regulations change so often that it's not easy to keep track. In this years May, they made a new rule in Penangs Thai Royal Consulate, first of all, you must to present a flight out of Thailand, hotel booking and sufficient amount of money. The other new thing is, that they take only 100 applicants a day. If you don't have all the documentation needed, you can always hire an agent to take care. For example, try Jim's place on Chulia street in Georgetown. With a small fee he will take care of all the missing documents. Providing fake documents will lead to ban from Thailand. I did use Jim's services as well but next time for sure I will just do it by myself. What you need is 2 passport photos ( you can make the...

Hiya world! Whaddup? How's life been kicking you lately? For me everyday is magical.  Before I used to live for the free time I had, now all my time is technically free. I am on my way to become 100% digital nomad and have said my farewells to my old life.  I said on New Years Eve that 2018 will be EPIC and so far it has been exactly that! Who knew that when I come to Thailand for 3 week s  that I will actually stay here? I didn't plan this out at all, I decided 2 weeks before my flight back that I am staying.. But here I am,  happier than ever because I swapped luxurious but busy city life to simple and slow jungle life.  The ending of last year was tiring with my new company, went through a bad breakup and over all had big emotional changes.  Leaving my life in Finland and Europe in general  came to me easy. I have had so much shit in my life that I am done living it "a s  suppo sed" to. Nothing ...

Whaddup world?!?! How've you been? Long  Beach , Koh Phayam  It's been 10 days that I haven't written anything but I have uploaded some new videos to YouTube and also on our page on Facebook you can find new pics and more funny vids : Here's my YouTube:  Gloria Terreur YouTube and Facebook:  Pinky and The Brain in Asia So been back on this magical island in Andaman Sea for 10 days and after my first "action filled" crazy days I fell back into this slow motion island mindset... Haven't really done anything but a lot has happened... Gypsy Bar, Koh Phayam Few accidents, like always, nothing too serious tho, also got stung by a bee right under my eye!! That was really painful and my eye swell shut for few days. I have some thaistyle remedies for ya: Firstly after you get stung, put lime or lemon or vinegar on the spot. Then keep ice to reduce swelling, take antihistamine and put tiger-balm and some weird oil from a cow-like animal from the j...

Yo yo yo WORLD! Whaddup? Day #4 in Penang. I woke up feeling calm and  stre s sle s s. It i s what it i s. Everyday i s beautiful. After I checked from internet that the emba s sy i s still clo sed, I started to plan my day. There i s many Hindu & buddhi st temple s here in Penang and I decided to go check some of them out and meditate. Becau se I am traveling here on a very low budget I decided to ju st walk everywhere. It' s not expensive to rent a moped, maybe 8-10€ a day but even that amount can big too big for me. After I had my coffee, I hear my inner self speaking to me.. I said to me to FLY BACK TO PHUKET TODAY and get a 30days Visa on arrival + 30 days extension. I arrived to Phuket on Tue sday at 9 pm and went to my friends bar, to stay there for some time and check out Fuckit. Clay from The S tone Bar in Kata Noi, showed me around to many cool places and if before I thought Phuket will be too busy because people told so, now I am in love with this place. M...
