    you can get your visa when you land there. queues can be long though. took us nearly one and a half hours to get through.

    the day i got my injections i felt sick that evening and i never ever get sick. wasnt a bother on me the next day though.

    enjoy the trip. its an amazing country.

    p.s. hope your going up north too.

    Thanks for that!
    Also how did u go about bringing money? i plan to bring about 1000E and not sure what is the best way to ensure security but easy access to cash.

    Any more travel tips? im travelling with one other girl so it'll just be two girls in thailand so wondering if theres anything thats handy to know!

    i brought mine in thai bhat cash. crime in thailand is low and from what i have heard theft is very low too. your biggest problem would be you losing it yourself. there are atm's every where so you can leave it in your bank account here and take it out at the cost of about 2 euro each time. if you withdraw the maximum each time it wont end up costing you that much.

    check out my blog from when i was there last march. you might see something you like that we did.
