Has anyone been to Living in Thailand recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Best hotels near the scene
I was there 6 months ago and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.
