    Max is back

    July 7, 2024 /

    ..for a nice trip home during his summer break. It’s the first time he’s been back to Thailand since he left in 2019 (and got trapped by COVID lockdowns in 2020). We are having a lot of fun.

    There’s a really excellent conveyor belt hotpot right near our house – at a gas station, no less – nad I went there for lunch with Tee today. I took a short clip and realized that this might be my only chance to jump on the TNLU bandwagon, albeit a month too late.

    If you are planning to visit Japan from Thailand and haven’t been suckered into buying an eSIM yet, I highly recommend buying a roaming package from DTAC/TRUE (AIS also has similar plans, but I haven’t tried them). The main reason is that it’s much cheaper, but also because I saw many travelers struggling with SIM cards/eSIMs purchased from both vending machines in Japan and online. In the space of one week, I saw at least five people complaining about weak coverage or spotty connectivity. The DTAC package we chose also came with free travel insurance for a week, which is great, but very difficult to actually find on the DTAC…
