Moving Abroad During COVID [Part 3 - Singapore To Thailand]

Thailand move happened on 26 Dec 2021, 

exactly 4 months after we left our home in Myanmar on 27 Aug 2021.

Just to recap a bit,

Due to visa renewal issues for Mister, we could no longer stay in Myanmar. His employer moved him from their Myanmar branch to the Bangkok HQ. However, preparing work visa documents and getting approval require 3-4 months time and we didn't want to risk overstaying that long in Myanmar so we moved to Singapore while waiting for all paperwork to be settled.  Bureaucracy is challenging to navigate as it is. When you add in Covid, it just gets tougher so below guide will hopefully make your life easier a tad bit if you are considering moving to Thailand.

Chiang Mai 3D2N Trip - 1, 2, 3 Oct 2016

As I had wrapped my entries for the USA West Coast trip, let me share about my 3D2N trip to Chiang Mai, before I move on to the East Coast stories.

I and my mother had to go to Phuket, Thailand for a business meeting and we extended our trip by flying to Chiang Mai afterwards.  The below entries were penned by my mother in our local tongue - Burmese. Enjoy!
