is thong lor an area or a specific condo building?


peopleselbow..... go back like 20 or so pages (maybe more) (or just pm jspill) and check out some of the places jspill was posting in this onnut area, looked very nice and everyone says safe spot close to the transportation

heck one was for $186 a month and didnt look any worse than what you just posted for almost $700 a month, except it didnt have a kitchen

Koh Samui is my favourite place in Thailand but would like to add that english is not as widely spoken as bangkok, pattaya or phuket. Outside of the full moon party (first week of the month) the island is pretty quite, and Bangkok air own the airport so the flights are twice the price that they should be.

work the disco muscles, good choice

Im prob going to get like a execitive suite in a decent places, U think I could offer my couch out for a nominal fee hehe

Where are all these cheap places in Thonglor you speak of?

Best price/value massage at sukumvit area?

I really like the healthland spa but I think its more of the expensive ones(for thailand) and I want to a small massage studio in front of Taiping which was good as well. Any more suggestions? Thats gonna be the first thing that I do after arriving

I miss Bkk so much i just played Jay-z new york and sang along changing the words to Bangkok and cried.

Im moving back soon all is forgiven.

hey buddy re: vacation plans I always recommend people do a mix of BKK, chiang mai, and a beach somewhere, and to try and keep their schedule flexible so you can mix and match as you like. flights between BKK, CM, and phuket are cheap and plentiful. other beach options would be samui or taking a cab from BKK to samet/hua hin

for you I would recommend phuket. hua hin and samet are quieter and work better as a romantic getaway, and you have already seen samui. there are a bunch of great guys in phuket who would be happy to share a drink/meal and hustle you at connect 4

for staying in phuket I would recommend the kata/karon area. there are many restaurants in the area and the beaches are some of the best. you would be about halfway between where the bulk of the 2+2 community lives (rawai) and where the main party/degen area is (patong).

for scheduling I would recommend something like
4 nights bkk
relax, get some massages, eat some good meals, party. since you are keen on laos I think it would be a good idea to decide how long you want to stay in bkk at the beginning of your trip (you can always come back at the end) and to book your travel to and from laos. there are fewer flights so you might have trouble booking last minute. when I went there I flew to udon thani airport and took a minibus across the bridge to vientiane.

4 nights laos
I would say spend 2 nights in vientiane and 2 in van vieng doing the mekong river tubing. both places are nice but I don't think you need to spend more time than that to do everything you'd want to. I've heard that luang prabang is nice, you could consider staying longer to go there

16 nights chiang mai, phuket, bkk
here I would recommend leaving your schedule more open. it is easy to fly between these 3 places on very short notice and hotels shouldn't be a problem this time of year. I would look at the weather forecast to decide where to start. if the weather is looking nice when you get back from laos you should go straight to phuket. else come to chiang mai and wait for a break in the rain. end your trip in bkk for as many nights as you feel like and then fly home

see ya soon

^ LP is the one place he should 100% go to if he goes to Laos, best town I've been to in asia probably for sightseeing, very well preserved and not really too developed yet.

re: massages I like the place by taiping the best of anywhere I've tried. ask for khun Tip

just had a hoot of a day

330 bath on hostel (inc breakfast wifi)
120bhat on food
60 bhat on travel
watched some fustsal for free
2 bhat total use in MKB (they use single ply if anyone cares)

total spend 552 bhat.

just giving people a rough indicator of what kind of the bear minimum per day can be. inbefore you cant do that every day why even come to bangkon. In after I wont be doing this everday

@K2D, yeah im going to see a few places JSP said a few pages back tomorrow.

the dude whos staying here I forgot there username, can you meet me tomorrow by the MRT station and just take me to the place by chance? saves me getting lost for 2hours?

dont forget next Friday, Friday gotta get down on Friday.

RCA/Funky Villa to start or something free entry, popping bottles, then hit a seedy joint like insomnia.

Where do people wanna go????

Thanks for the advice about my holiday.

Hopefully you are not trolling me and this "khun Tip" is not a kind of a prostate massage :/

god not that picture again, its from like 5 years ago, and it was for the drink not an actual......... lol @ them putting it in an add now

or i guess lol @ me for just realizing that you made that dude u crack my **** up and again i can see why u say u can sit around entertaining yourself all day

pics of places u check out tomorrow plz and ty,, try not to get stabbed takin the creepers as well

no rooms available bud, vomit and i went there 2 days ago was completely full

this made me lol

landlord - what's up boy's
Jspill - me and vomit are looking for apartments to rent

Anyone have any leads on an apartment/condo that rents by the month close to the BTS/MRT? Doesn't have to be inner Sukhumvit as I'm looking for something 15,000 baht max (preferably around 12k but I'm flexible). Doesn't have to serviced either, just nice enough, until I find a permanent place. I'm flying to BKK August 13th and I'd like to have a place possibly figured out before then.

Jspill was kind enough to give me a suggestion a few months back (place called Srijinda Mansion). I'd be willing to spend more than that, though, for a nicer place, so I thought I'd ask everyone. On a related note, I just read an article about a "destitute" guy who plunged to his death a couple months back from that building.

Anyways, your help would be appreciated. I've spent some time searching the thread and google with limited results (mainly stuff 20,000 baht or more). Ekkamai, Ratchada maybe? Would On Nut be too far out to base myself for a month (Jspill, you still live in On Nut area?)? There's a place called Green Bells out there that looks good if it's not too far out.

You guys know better than to use the Internet for apt hunting in BKK.
Get a local to help you.

I take that back about Srijinda actually, think I was misinformed. I visited it myself, and it was pretty ugly. All small studios, low quality, couldn't find the pool and gym that someone told me they have. Don't think they exist.

Anywhere there are a million nice places (with pool + fitness etc.) nearby a BTS/MRT station if your budget is 15k and you're fine with a studio not a 1 bedroom apartment. Athena Suites ratchada, Life ratchada, The Link Condo 50 in On Nut, any of the Ideo Mobi chain of places, Noble Solo Thonglor, I could lists dozens.

imo if you're 6 or less BTS or MRT stops away from Asok, you're not too far out. So anywhere up to On Nut and Ratchada stations for example is ok to live in. And the further you go, the higher quality place you get for that 15k

I saw s.k mansion today. 700bhat daily, n 15k monthly, did have a mini mart n laundrey on suit. Didnt look too nice though. Nothing wrong with staying in a hostel either


Ps i am quite well financed to be in thailand

lol me and vomit went there 2 days ago, we could've told you that and saved you the time. PM me your thai no.

yeah really disappointing, their website is basically a scam

Sk mansion??? Its 1min away from my hostel figure id give it a shout. Im on my fone now ill send u tomrrow when im on my laptop if u was askiing for my number. This site is a mindfuek reading on a smart phone

dont say that i looked n thought it looked so nice bloody hell now what gurrrr
