A volcano stamp in my passport

I'm finally back home!       Because of the Icelandic volcano I had overstayed my visa in Thailand, but since the Immigration Police didn't blame me for the eruption they were nice and let me go home without paying any fee.       They even gave me a "volcano stamp" in my passport!       See you next time!

Finally, I'm going home :)

I've been stuck in Bangkok since April 19. Every day I have been in touch with Thai Air, trying to get back home. Today I finally received the good news that I'll be going home Thursday night. I'll be landing in Norway Friday morning, 12 days behind schedule... Bye bye Thailand, and hope to see you again soon

Stuck in Bangkok

I was planning to fly back home to Norway on Sunday, but my flight was cancelled. So now I'm stuck in Bangkok, and I have no idea when I can go back home. It can be days or weeks..... Oh lord. I was expected back to work tomorrow, but my boss is nice and he understands that it wasn't me who set off the volcano...... My insurance company is paying for my hotel and they also give me 1600 baht a day for food and other expenses, so I'm ok. I only wish I knew when I could go home.....

I'm going home!

My vacation (part I) is starting today, and I'm so happy to go back "home" to Thailand. For the first time I'll fly directly from Norway to Thailand and that will save me a couple of hours in the air. Thanks to Thai Air to open the new route!  First I'll stay in Bkk for a few days and it'll be GREAT to see my Offy again ))  Then we'll fly to Phnom Penh before we travel to Siem Reap/Angkor Wat. When we're done temple spotting we'll take the bus back to Bkk, stay there a few days, before we head

My Thai vacation is booked!

I've just booked the 2nd vacation to Thailand this year for Arvid and my self! We'll arrive in my 2nd home October 9th and will fly back home November 3rd.   In March we had the mixed pleasure of flying with Aeroflot, and that was a once-in-our-lifetime experience. We'll never fly an old Russian cargo plane again.....  This time we'll fly with Swissair and I'm sure that will be a pleasent flight.   I'm not sure where we'll go this time, but we've talked about going to Khao Lak and Phuket. We hav

Back in Bkk!

After 2,5 hours from Oslo to Moscow, 6 hours at the airport and a 9,5 hours nightmare of a flight from Moscow to Bangkok I'm finally "home"! I'm really too tall for the Aeroflot planes......  But nevertheless, I'm very happy to be back in Thailand, and I'm looking forward to meet lots of TFers at the event on Saturday! See ya!

TF Event March 7 - Welcome to I&A

We have finally decided where to have our TF Event on March 7. Because of our lack of imagination and a hint of laziness, the event will be held at the same place as our event in September last year. Everyone is welcome to join us! Arvid and I will be there from 8 pm and everyone will be served a drink or two and some ligth snacks (until our money is gone.....). Click on Larry's to view who already signed up, and join them!    PS!  And can anyone/anybody tell me the difference between anyone/

Where to host the TF Event on March 7?

Hi!As some of you know my friend Arvid and I will host a TF event on March 7. Until now I've been thinking to have the event at Tawandaeng, but I'm not so sure if this is a good idea. The problem with Tawandaeng is that its crowded in the weekends, and it's not easy to book a table for more than 20 people. As of today 28 people have signed up for the event and I know some TF members never sign up for any events,  but still likes to join, and I have some non-TF-friends who will be there as well.S
