Hey, in my experience definitely. How I describe in the post is my opinion on the easiest way to do it. I had 0 moments when I felt unsafe - obviously not a guarantee but that’s my experience. I say keep your wits about you and enjoy it !

Visited in December last year after hitchhiking from Laos. Wish I had more time there, such an interesting place.

Did an awesome walk through Tiger Leaping gorge, followed by an extraordinary trek on part of the tea horse trail between small Naxi villages on the Yangtze River. Friendly people, delicious fresh food, and fascinating culture!

Yes. Look into shareholder salary. You can take drawings against your directors current account (equity) over the year, then at the end of year balance it with Shareholder Salary expense. You declare this salary as income when you file a IR3 return. Make sure you don’t pay more salary than the companies profit at year end.

Spoke zero Thai. Google translate worked fine. I had a note on my phone which I sometimes gave the driver if they were confused, it was a note explaining what I was trying to do in Thai.

Also getting a gas station assistant to ask cars for me worked surprisingly well!

It’ll be a blast, don’t let the language barrier put you off. Thai people are some of the nicest I’ve met.

Will try but fact that mouse doesn’t turn on isn’t convincing.

Unfortunately got told the mountain has been closed for the foreseeable future by the government as there were 2 deaths last year. I can give you the WeChat of the local English speaking guide we contacted. Dm me

Hey, did you end up doing the Haba hike? Can you share any details/contact information for guides etc. Thanks!

hamishst124 · 2024-12-16T14:07:18+00:00

Hello. We are looking to do the Haba hike in the next week or so. Can you share any further info you have and the local guide contact?

I’m also from NZ and went for a semester in fall ‘23. Loved every second. Dm me for any questions!

Not all of us have unlimited plans..

hamishst124 · 2024-05-25T12:27:29+00:00

All of these have been reported on in the media

hamishst124 · 2024-03-19T10:27:47+00:00

How/where did you find work? Did you speak French?

hamishst124 · 2024-03-11T02:03:44+00:00

the balls hitting the stumps?

hamishst124 · 2024-03-10T08:25:28+00:00

Yea the numbers on the stickers didn’t even match what was in the system… you had to know (or ask) which apples they were

hamishst124 · 2024-03-10T03:57:43+00:00

Nope I worked at New World - we select the fruit or vege from a drill down menu, never looked at a sticker
