If you came up to my province just outside of Bangkok i could recommend you a tailor or two at the Thai Price. (interested, send me a PM)

If not, i would thoroughly advise that you do not use the services of any BKK downtown tailor that advertises with huge signs in English. You will notice that the local Thais never go to such places. These tailors deal only with tourists. Therefore, their prices are expensive and the quality is low.

Do not take any tuk-tuk or taxi driver advice or you will be seriously scammed.

Best to ask a Thai friend for recommendation.

Hi Steve,

thanks for your information. If it's not too far outside of bangkok(if you can get there by public transport), i'm interested in your tailors. Do they speak a little bit english?

Hi!

has anybody of you already let bleeched his/her teeth?

do they use the same bleeching substances as in europe?

I was thinking of beleeching my teeth as it's cheaper than in europe but i'm still a bit afraid that the substances are more aggressive and maybe affect your dental ename?

which dental clinic would you recommend?

Thanks a lot for every hint or recommend!

Cheers,

I will be travelling to an area which is prone to malaria.

Has anyone heard of a anti malaria pill called malarone I  understand it has low side effects. Is it available in thailand.

I also heard of tablets that make your blood sour (mosquitos only wanna sweet blood) and which shouldn't have any side effects. unfortunatly i don't know the name, but you should get them at the pharmacy.

i'm planning to go to kho chang for a week and am looking for some tablets against malaria but with low side effects too as i' m usually the first one getting bitten...

Hi Sarah,

AA House seems quite popular although I’m not qualified to give a personal recommendation. http://www.mrroomfinder.com/detail.php?id=461

I believe there's also a place in Sukhumvit Soi 40 (BTS Ekamai) at around 5,000 THB/Mo. but I have no details on that one I'm afraid.

There's also a couple of places right next to Thonglor BTS (even numbers) One is a spit from Soi 38, and another is a brand new construction (should be open now) that you can almost touch from the platform. Both of these places look as though they have small studios available.

Maybe some other members can pass on a few recommendations.

Good luck.

Hey, thanks a lot for your help Aitch!

Will go to AA House tomorrow and have a look, sounds good, as well as C-One Mansion and River Place which I found in Mr. Roomfinder, thanks for you recommandations!

Hey, thank you guys for your help!

Think I will go to California, sounds good if it costs only 1200 B/M and if you're quite pleased with it. ...really have to do sports as food is just so good here;-)...

Does Fitness First costs everywhere the same (in each location here in BKK)?

Hi, I am looking for a cheap room or apartment from November on for four month which should be close to an BTS Station. Can you recommend any hostels, hotels or apartements? What is a usual price per month?

I have already heard of Sathorn View which also offers apartments for longer stays, any experiences with that one?

Thanks a lot in advance for any help and information!
