For duncan
Am now in Homalin , which is 2 days travel south of Khamti in northern myanmar on the Chindwin river, near Nagaland.. Fantastic.
Love it here.
Got 3 more days on the river, which might be 5. Till i hit Monywa and than bus back to mandalay before flying back to phuket.
Its a great country, great food and ,at least where i go Zero tourists.

Easy to get pre approved visa on line.

3g and not to fast but not to slow either.......

Super friendly people ,even more so than Thais or Khmers.

How long is a tourist visa valid for, and how does a person qualify to stay in the country long term or even permanently?

And of course I just have to ask ,,, the girls, how do they compare with Cambodian girls in looks, and more importantly ,, intelligence.

Lots of photos your photo gallery, but I cannot access the gallery with all the beautiful girls in. Do I need the secret password ?

28 day tourist visa.
I have 1 friend works at internatioanl school in yangon. 1 year business visa but needs leave every 70 days.
Another works for carlesberg. 1 year visa, doesn't need leave.
Another is married and has a 1 year visa
Worthless uneducated english teachers not wanted lol

As to ladies, there are no bars that i have seen. Been north, south and east. 4 trips in last 18 months. I see many lovely ladies but most ,outside Yangon ,do not speak english.
If ur looking for anything like cambodia or thailand in that repect dont bother going. There are ktv's and i have been offered but Only in yangon.
No secrets on my website.

do you know the appropriate cost for visiting Myanmar in 1 week?

up to you, but i would budget Min $50/day for hotel/food/travel

yeah, i'm looking at this tour, https://www.bestpricevn.com/Tour_A-Phot ... -days.html the itinerary is quite good as it covers most famous destinations in myanmar: yangon, bagan, mandalay and inle lake. but i think i'll have to pay small pile of money for transportaion

LOL
those 4 are where 85% of the tourists go,

You want a photo tour? I'll take ya for $200/day on a custom tour includes hotels, ( deluxe accom) food and travel ( not air) Trains/boats, bus's ( or motorcycle)
