I want to take block tasty cheese overseas to Thailand .Other people have and said it is fine.Would you freeze it first

it will last indefinitely wrapped properly (saran wrap) in fridge, you might have to cut a little mold off, that's no problem. your problem would be putting cheese in freezer.

not much as it depends on the machine and your imagination
one suggestion is "toad in the hole"
take a slice of bread and cut a round hole in the centre, crack an egg in the hole and close up the halves
cook until the egg yolk is too your liking
there will be books available on what to do with the machine

You may not like the texture after freezing.

Although it's completely possible to freeze cream cheese, it does alter the texture. Thawed cream cheese is less creamy and a lot more crumbly than fresh cream cheese. Because of this, it's best to use frozen cream cheese in casseroles, baked dishes and dips.
Pick a cream cheese that has a higher fat content. Low and non-fat cream cheeses don't freeze as well
