Tedly

How are they buying property? I thought foreigners could not buy land, or are they setting up corporations and buying with Thai people?

Sorry, I have no idea. I would make a guess at about 10,000 baht, but again, just an off the top of my head guess.

I too follow Paddy, and he has very strong legs to do all the mountain hiking he has done, but I agree with everyone else, that he was not physically ready for this bike ride. Yes, his seat was way too low, and had almost no cycling experience. I am 63 and ride about 40km a day 5 days a week, have never done super long distance but have done 90km with hills and I know how tired my body was. I ride in the morning before it gets too hot. I was actually amazed that he did as well as he did. I never would have thought a guy with basically no cycling experience could ride over 100km on his second day. I was rooting for him but had my doubts that he could accomplish his goal, maybe if he does more research and training he could try it and succeed in cooler weather and off the big roads, but I have to give him credit for attempting such a challenge.

I was told that she would have had to have lived in the US for 5 years, then would be eligible, but a lot of paperwork and documents required to prove it.

I have a nice area not in the city, around the Doi Saket area and Mae Kwang dam area.

Bicycle 40-45km about 5 days a week. Usually ride 3 days then skip one, and repeat, sometimes skip one after 2 days but I average 5 days per week.

I lost a little due to eating less junk food than in America, and bicycling 4-5 days a week. Lost about 2-3kg, currently at about 66kg, I'm not tall so it's a good weight for me.

Same here, I recently needed a new card and they would not send it anywhere but an American address. I had them send it to a family member who then mailed it to me. Maybe I'll try adding my Thai address and see what happens next time I need a new one.

A guy I know (68) just bought insurance last year with a company called Thai Life. I million baht policy with a 50,000 baht deductible and the yearly premium is like 35,000 baht a year. Might be worth looking into at least.

Hope she fully recovers, but I wonder why the need to mention how many followers she has in Instagram, like what does that have to do with anything. I laugh at the term "influencer" too, they sure don't influence me.

thanks

For sure!

Where in Chiang Mai did you get them?

No, but maybe I should, less drama. Haha

I go to Winner hobby pretty often but I don't think they carry that type of stuff. I've been doing some resin casting and had been getting my silicone rubber from Rungart in Bangkok, and my urethane resin from a hobby store in Singapore, or epoxy resin from Lazada. Hope this helps Rungart does have a pretty big variety of things but you still wouldn't be able to actually see it and go buy it in a store.
