Enjoying a semester abroad needs a lot of preparation. Therefore I made a little to do list. I will keep this list up to date to visualise my progress.
- ✓ Visa for Thailand and countries I want to visit (like China, Singapore, Malaysia)
- Is it possible to get a visa without knowing the exact time and destination?
- It seems to be not possible. But it is fine to do get a visum for the other countries directly in Thailand.
- Get visa for
- Thailand (I need the acceptance letter from the university to get a visa)
- ✓Injections:
- ✓What do I need?
- ✓Inject: Typhus, japanese encephalitis, rabies
- Typhus vaccine was not available. I got an oral vaccination.
- ✓Insurance
- ✓ Health insurance (Hanse Merkur)
- ✓ Indemnity insurance
- My current insurance sufficient
- ✓ Flight
- Information about a possible one day stop in Dubai
- I got a two day stop on my way back to germany. I don't need a visum for that.
- Is it possible to book a flight without a return (possible visa conflict)
- I got a return flight, including the option to offset the date and the point of depature to be flexible. This eliminates the potential visa conflict.
- Book the flight.
- ✓Hotel (Book a Hotel until I find an appartement)
- We found something for the first days
- ✓ Get a credit card
- ✓Pause the mobile-contract
- ✓Pause or cancel membership in the tennis club

- ✓Sun glasses (I completed the eye examination)
- ✓Padlock (you never know)
