No More Visa Runs?

I just caught wind of this from Nop and our friends at Mymuaythai.com. To sum it all up, Nop had the chance to talk with the Director of Tourism during his trip to watch the MSA fights in England. They discucessed how the Director is looking at stimluating the Muay Thai side of tourism enabling Nak Muay’s to join programs that allow them long term visa stays.

I know from experience and i’m sure most of you feel the same way, but visa runs suck balls. You pretty much have to travel a whole day just to cross the border, get your visa stamp and then cross back into Thailand.

If this idea pushes through and is implemented, it would be great news for Nak Muay’s looking at staying for up to a year without worrying about Visa runs or even going through all the bullshit to get one.

For the full story go to Nop’s website at MyMuayThai.com

Born in Australia, training in martial arts since the age of 9. My first trip to Thailand was back in 2007. Since then i have made numerous visits back to the "land of smiles" to feed my addiction of Muay Thai. During the month of November in 2010 i had to decide between working a 9 to 5 job back home for the rest of my life, or sell all my worldly possessions and move to Thailand to live and train for the next few years. Thankfully i chose the latter. I now spend my time training Muay Thai, meeting new and interesting circles of people, sipping coconuts under palm trees on the beach and measuring the cost of everything on how much Pad Thai i could buy with that money.
