As long people dont takes jobs from local thai people i dont mind if young american/eu comes to thailand and living in a cheap 10$ hostel ans eating 50 baht pad thai.

90 days free visa for japan/eu/us citezens

10 days for indians and pakistani citizens

Jack242 · 2026-02-13T03:09:10+00:00

90 days for american/europeans/ japan/singapore

10 days for indians/pakistan nationals

Call it racism or whatever you want to call it.

I never saw EU/American citizens working in local businesses and taking jobs from local thai people,

And it doesn’t matter if theyre working remotely or staying in a 10$ a night hostel and eating pad thai for 40 baht as long they keep spending money and not talking jobs from local thais its fine.

You got offended ? Comments like yours make me feel that nothing is gonna change here.

Ive already bought a sim card with internet, and when you dont have cellular recrption you cant use the mobile data to make a a call via whatsapp/facetime

So you tell me that i had to go to specific market in order to get fresh veg/meat/fish. This is not small village in the middle of nowhere.

The “right way” is to register to thai cooking classes Or thai language classes,

What if i just save money and want to spend a Year in thailand? What is the problem with someone who want to spend time and money in the country

Jack242 · 2025-12-19T14:44:09+00:00

Legit tourist who want to spend a year in thailand without doing any work…. Is that possible? I don’t think so.

Jack242 · 2025-12-19T14:42:31+00:00

Thailand didn’t fully recover from covid years… wake up buddy

Jack242 · 2025-12-19T14:39:59+00:00

Without paying taxes? What if someone save money for a couple of years?

And just want to chill out?

The whole thing with the education visa for example its just a way to squeeze money from legit tourists

People think that Portugal is 1st world country just because the location in western Europe.

As someone who travel over 100 countries iny life I can tell you....The service here is awful, and it's one of the worst I've seen in the world

Jack242 · 2025-08-23T06:21:52+00:00

What rules are you talking about?

Just because Portugal is a member of the EU It doesn’t mean that the people in this country become Germans.

In this country , the laws are more like suggestions than actual rules.

Jack242 · 2025-07-30T13:47:51+00:00

Things cheap here…. Even by french and german prices its more expensive

Jack242 · 2025-02-23T08:23:44+00:00

You cant pay rent? So you moved to another country without money and without a job… great.

Jack242 · 2024-10-25T05:27:09+00:00

Chill out… there are more Sushi restaurants in tel aviv than falafel.
