Forums > Living in Kunming > Buying shoes in Kunming

I know you didn't mention them but I passed by 2 stores selling Merrell, a well known sports shoe company. One was on the left side of QingNian Lu, going south from RenMin Zhong Lu. They are expensive so I "guess" they are the real thing.

Sounds great.

Is a Chabad Rabbi coming to Kunming?
If Chabad is hosting this Seder, will I be able to bring my Chinese GF ?
How can I help with the seder preparations ?

Thanks for the info.

How much do the travel agents charge for this service, not including the visa fee when there is one?

Can you get 60, instead of 30 days? When she went down to the consulate last December, she got a 60 day visa. At that time, she did present an employment confirmation letter. She was able to get a 30 day extension in Thailand.

Forums > Travel Yunnan > Thai visa for Chinese (GF) Fiance

I am an American with a Thai retirement visa living in Chiang Mai. My GF and I want to spend time both in China, Thailand as well as taking trips to other Asian countries, so she will need 2 to 3 Thai visas a year. Since she will not need to work, will getting a Thai visa for her in China be more difficult? How easy is it to get Thai visas in other Asian countries?

Thanks for any helpful advice.

Hi,

I usually take the bus to Jinghong leaving from the South Bus Station.
In JH, you can catch a bus to Huay Xai Laos the next morning. I am not sure if there is a sleeper going to HX. You can probably buy the next morning bus after you arrive in JH.
I usually stay at Manytrees International Youth Hostel several nights before I take the morning bus to Laos.

You should arrive in HX in time to cross the border into Thailand. You can sleep 1 night at one of the local GHs and catch the Green Bus to CM in the morning or catch a minivan the same day at about 6PM to CM.
Hope this helps.
