Don't know the cost but me and the boss have stopped at the Amari two or three times because it's connected to DMK by a walkway and (at least when we stopped there) you can leave your car there for free the whole time you're away.
Just what I was thinking KhunBENQ! From first hand experience, it has everything I need (even boom boom when required), in my opinion very affordable if on a budget and the poster who mentions all the cons is talking complete bs. Been here 13 years and if you know where to live and get a decent circle of friends, there's no need to go anywhere near the expensive tourist traps to have a very affordable, pleasant life indeed. Love it that much that I'll kick the bucket 🪣 here!
Yes, definitely.
I've lost 12kg this year because I definitely needed to as a 5' 6" fat git!
So main personal goal is to keep it off and maybe better it.
Secondly, try to speak more Thai.
This spoilt young fella per meal gets 100 grams of chicken breast, 2 x chicken hearts, a teaspoon of blended veg, a serving spoon of rice, a handful of kibble, a shot of salmon oil and a chicken knuckle. He's a very very happy young man!
I've had the misfortune at various times to be on planes loaded with Chinese, Afghans, Nigerians and Indians and the majority of all of them act like self entitled pr1cks with no regard for anyone other than themselves. I'd put them all in the same boat but, I'd say the Nigerians edge it! Even the Emirates staff detested the Lagos to Dubai flight!
Only my personal opinion but, I think anyone who doesn't wear a helmet is stark raving mad! There's many many expats where I live that don't and it seems like a badge of honour to them. Look at me, I do what the f*** I want!
