well what's the difference between seoul and hawaii?
bangkok is a huge city and phuket is a tropical island
in bangkok you are moving by skytrain and taxis. in phuket you usually drive your own motorbike around
phuket has beaches, nice scenery. bangkok has a lot more nightlife and better/cheaper shopping options
i want to be able to drive around looking the scenery freely, look at the sea/beaches even when i haven't gone to the beach for a while, i couldn't do that in bangkok. most people from this thread who moved from phuket to bangkok wanted more choice with nightlife after they got bored with phuket. i dunno if they are bored with bangkok yet but most of them like it more than phuket on that front
