Meet-up in Thailand? Who is interested?

[Stphn]

I am really curious to see how active Thailand is on Google Maps!

Are you a Local Guide from Thailand, or living in Thailand? Would you be interested in doing a meet-up?

It can be one day, or even multiple days if there are enough people. We do some events together, eat together and talk about the passion we all share.

I am proposing to do the event in November, December or January. Preferably it would be in Phuket, Krabi, or even better Koh Phi Phi. I show you around paradise!

The meeting will be in English, basic English will be required to attend the event.

Enjoy your trip to Thailand soon @Stphn

Tagging Teh @Ant_Bad_Yogi , one of our Local Guide friend from Thailand. Perhaps you could meet Stephen there or call the other Thai LG to join this

[Ant_Bad_Yogi]

Teh @Velvel , thank you for tagging me. Hope you are doing fine.

@Stphn , welcome to Thailand. I would love to join you but I don’t travel yet. I think next year would be better for me to travel, let’s see. I wish you a nice trip to Thailand.

[Stphn]

Thanks @Velvel for tagging @Ant_Bad_Yogi !

Let me know when you are up to a meeting, and we’ll arrange it!

[Ant_Bad_Yogi]

@Stphn sure, I’ll let you know. BTW, have you moved to Thailand?

[Velvel]

Yes, I’m doing fine. How about you, Teh @Ant_Bad_Yogi ?

It’s been a while since the last time we talked to each other here

You’re welcome @Stphn

Enjoy your trip to Thailand soon! If you like fashion, don’t forget to shop a lot there. Hahaha

In fact, I expected much more local guides from this country. Because it is a tourist paradise and there is a great need for local tips. @Stphn

[Stphn]

@Ant_Bad_Yogi Yes!

Thanks @Velvel

Indeed I was expecting many more to be honest @Gezendunyali

[Ant_Bad_Yogi]

Teh @Velvel I’m fine too. Yes, it’s been a long time. Hope I won’t be busy next time you host online meet-up.

@Stphn Cool. So you are based at Phi Phi island?

[Velvel]

Thank you for remembering my meet-up, Teh @Ant_Bad_Yogi

It was so nice to have you that time.

Oh my… It’s been a long since the last time I hosted a virtual meet-up

The good thing is… I hosted an in person meet-up this July. Teh @Nyainurjanah also joined this meet-up!

Aduh, katingalina menarik. Dupi abdi tiasa gabung ogé teh @Ant_Bad_Yogi

[Ant_Bad_Yogi]

@br14n It’s interesting! But I’m not sure I will join. Anyhow I will let you know if I join this meetup, mas.

[Sophia_Cambodia]

That’s interesting @Stphn I am not far from Thailand, just one hour away by flights. However, if I am not expecting and the due date is very closed too, to time you are proposing, I will probably join you and @Ant_Bad_Yogi

[Ant_Bad_Yogi]

@Sophia_Cambodia I’m kind of busy with work and personal. I think I won’t join this meet-up. But if I can, I’ll let you know.

[Stphn]

Oooh that is great to hear @Sophia_Cambodia ! I might visit Cambodia actually in the upcoming year, where are you staying in Cambodia? Perhaps we can meet somewhere for a drink.

As for the meet up, please take your time @Ant_Bad_Yogi and let us know if you are available next year. We can arrange something!

[Sophia_Cambodia]

@Stphn thank you. I am currently living in Phnom Penh, the capital city. Sure, would be nice to have a coffee in town

So, you are now based in Thailand? Do come here, not far at all - you can even take a direct bus from Bangkok to the border and then to Siem Reap.

[PhilipJames]

@Stphn let’s do it!

[Stphn]

One day surely will do that! @Sophia_Cambodia

[Stphn]

Yes @PhilipJames ! Do you know of any LGs residing here?

[PhilipJames]

I think we could announce on Facebook and locate some. I only know a couple.
