gs4492 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Hello people. I thought id pop on here for some advise. I have recently relocated to thailand. Im currently in Chiang Mai. I like it a lot but im thinking of checking out the south when i go for my visa run in january. I was wandering if anyone had any good sugguestions. Of course i would like somewhere nice and cheap with a nice beach etc. I don't want it to be too quiet but at the same time i don't want to be surrounded by lots of drunk holiday makers. Im currently planning my visa run and i was thinking about flying to Hat Yai and then traveling to Pinang to get my new visa. Is this possible? If so how long does it take to get from Hat Yai to Pinang? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumball Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Why don't you just move to cambodia ? Nice beaches , more laid back and NO visa hastles . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gs4492 Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 Im actually tempted by that solution. :-) The only thing is that im a web designer and need I good internet connection. Also ive invested a fair bit of time into learning to read and speak thai but i guess thats not a major issue. Can you recommend somewhere in Cambodia? Maybe ill check it out. Thanks :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumball Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 The internet connection has been excellent for 4 years , had problems when the cable went down off Vietnam and some inconvenience with the latest cable up-date . For beaches that are clean and quiet you need to go to Sihanook-ville , have a friend who lives there could fill you in on what is what vis-a-vis accomodation etc .
