Bureaucracy costs time.
Last time I wanted to extend my visa in Thailand on a Friday it was closed. The next week it was closed three days so I could not get the extension in time. I left the country to avoid to pay for overstay.
Now I have a new visa and wanted to get an extension early. But on the immigration I was told I should do it around the last week of my visa. An unnecessary thing which costs me nearly another day to go there and back.

I took the train from Bangkok to Chaiya some days ago. When I arrived in Chaiya I looked for a motorbike driver to bring me to my flat. Normally there are several professional ones who do the service.
But this time, when I approached them they looked away talked to others and refused the service. They pretended not to understand which is wrong because I used this service already many times without problems. I could walk from one to the next one all refused service.
I had it already that Thais stand together against me this time the same. I do not know why.
Well this needs an answer. When you come to Thailand you should use only Taxis with meter. Others may approach you and tell you that they will give you a better price. You end up paying much more. Further you should get information how much a intended trip costs befor you go. This will save you money.
I think for me there is no need to pay more to Thais after years of harassment in Thailand from Thais except you know you meet a nice one.

Today I went to a Internetcafe in Chaiya to surf the net. I could not get a connection despite others seemed to have. I finished but was asked to pay because I had used the keyboard. Well in Chaiya there are quite some idiotic Thais.
I do not know what is going on. When I arrived in Chaiya the landlord asked why I would not return to Germany. I do not know why he asked this.
Voices told me that they had changed strategy. May be this includes speaking bad about me to get people up against me.
Once I went to the Telecom to send a Fax. I was rather stressed after terror from Thais during sleep.
As I wanted to get the service done people behind me were watching asking questions. I actually wanted to have the fax sent private. But this was at risk. So I postponed sending the fax.

Some time later I tried again. I was approached by a man with feelings which hurted me. He then came very close. I pushed him slowly back. About this the man complained to another man standing not far who was looking angrily at me as if he was waiting that I did something wrong to get violant. Fortunately there were some other people around. So nothing happened.

In Thailand they have a new way to go for the money of foreigners. Getting cash from an Thai ATM now costs more than 3 Euro fee for foreign cards.
