Busy New York? An exotic island in Thailand?| 34 Replies: « back 1 2 next » | Mell Mell Post Count: 14869 Msg: #21 89 weeks ago, April 4th 2008 | The letter of invitation thing has changed now Jakko. It is no longer needed for many foreigners. The government of Krgyzstan wants to make it easier for tourists so they can get some much needed foreign money into the country. Citizens of many countries can now get a visa on arrival. But being a third world country one never knows what complications are in store when one encounters buerocacy there. I am not sure whether waiting to get to the airport in Bishkek or sending my passport to the Krygyzstan consulate will involve the least BS. :D | Mel [Edited: 11:58 - Mell ] Ellen Around the World Ellen Post Count: 102 Msg: #22 89 weeks ago, April 4th 2008 | India, Cuba, Laos, Italy and home sweet home, Australia! | footeswitch Tim Foote Post Count: 5 Msg: #23 89 weeks ago, April 5th 2008 | Costa Rica, by far. It has an old world charm, mixed with very pleasant people, and hardworking. Reminds me of growing up in Newfoundland which is on the far east coast of Canada. Also a really great place to visit, a mix of Irish, English, Scottish, and great people!!! | [Moderator edit: Mel removing link.

I was amazed to hear that he had a heavy Irish accent even though he had never been to Ireland. It gave me the impression that there are very closed Irish communities in New Foundland. | Mel footeswitch Tim Foote Post Count: 5 Msg: #25 89 weeks ago, April 5th 2008 | Newfoundland has small towns and many different dialects, some are mixtures of Irish, and others. Most began as fishing communities. Some have a thick Scottish type accent. The scenery is beautiful, rugged coastline, and open seas, and whales to watch. Maybe you can go there someday!! | [Moderator edit: Mel removing link.
