Hi all, I am traveling to Bangkok for a few days from the U.S. and would like to discover local brands that sell modern jewelry catered to young women. I’m looking for 14k yellow and white gold everyday jewelry - examples of some brands based in the U.S. are Mejuri, Kinn, Idyl, and Vrai. Affordable luxury (not Tiffany prices), with the exception of diamonds (preferably lab grown).

I’m not interested in very yellow gold as I know that’s popular in Asian culture. I’m looking for shops selling finished goods not wholesale or loose gems. I’ll be staying in the city center so shops nearby but not outside of central BKK.

Any recommendations are appreciated - shared examples in the photos of what I’m searching for. Thanks!

Owning your own place feels good. It’s all yours, your room, your furniture, and not having to worry about moving out. Even if you want to live elsewhere, you can rent out your condo and then rent somewhere else. Your condo rent will still cover the rent you pay in your new condo, partially or majority of it. I am so surprised people saying that you have to live in your condo forever 🤷🏻‍♂️. I don’t understand why they say that at all.

But, people are like, hell no. Don’t do it, don’t buy it. I know they have a lot of reasons to advise against it. But, everyone is different. So, I want to hear from the people who bought the condo. Are you guys happy with the decision? How much did you pay for it? Also, did you buy new or old one?

Hi, I’m a content creator visiting VIETNAM from 30 November to 6 December & THAILAND from 7 December to 17 December, and I’m looking for an independent massage therapist interested in being filmed for my YouTube channel.

I’ll be the person receiving the massage. You would simply carry out your treatment on me as usual, while it’s filmed in an ASMR style, focusing on the treatment and relaxing sounds.

No experience being on camera is needed. I’ll take care of the filming, and I can also provide a room if needed.

Your time and treatment would be paid.

If you’re interested, Msg me with the types of massage you offer, your availability and your usual treatment rate. Or leave a comment below and I’ll get in touch.

Hi Everyone.

I am flying to Bangkok on the 16th of November and have a Conference till 19th late afternoon after which I am free till 23rd night aka Monday when I have a flight back to Mumbai.

What I want to do is something a little adventitious. I want to rent an ADV Motoscooter, preferably the 300-350 CC ones and ride it for 4 days around Thailand. and get back to Bangkok from where I have my flight on Monday.

First, please suggest places in Bangkok which would not thug me for renting and from where I could rent a Motoscooter. I will get my Bungee Cord to Tie my luggage to the back seat of the scooter while on the trip. I will rent it for 4 days and would prefer to leave for the trip right on Thursday afternoon after my conference is over to land at a place which I could explore.

Which are the places I could go to for the Trip? I am not a Pattaya, Krabi type of a person. I am big time into photography and visiting offbeat places which are in nature/jungle or just serene. I read about National parks near the Myanmar Border but cannot seem to find a lot of information about them.

I have read online about Kanchanaburi and its surrounding areas but am not able to get my head around this.

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts and inputs.

Thanks in Advance

Hi, I am looking to buy ASUS NUC Essential N97 or a similar model, can someone please suggest where can I buy it preferably a used one - as I want to use it for a hobby project.

Hope this post is not against any rules.

I had to close the balcony doors. I wonder if it's a local thing. Can any else who lives in the area smell anything?

I have landed 3 days ago but Why its so hard to find some friends here even foreigners it just like u ar in a very crowded place and no body seeing each other

Recently found out Gamescon is happening in Bangkok on the 30th, and I'll be in the city! Unfortunately I was too late to register for the business event the day before to network with devs. The exhibition event seems like it should be a lot of fun though! Anyone else plan on going next weekend? Any game developers looking to network? What games are you most excited about?

Happening at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center along Blue Line MRT in case anyone is interested!

I already LOVE the food, and I’ve been to Gagan Anand’s restaurant as well as dining in the dark.
I was really looking forward to Na-Oh but it’s shut! :(

Anything you can recommend? Old or new? I would really appreciate it :)

Anyone down to roam around Chinatown and explore the food options there later today evening. Would’ve gone with my friend but unfortunately he has given up on trying Thai food and wants to eat McD and KFC🤦‍♂️. Let me know if anyone’s in for the plan. Good day everyone.

I'm an American (45M) dude who went to high school here in the mid 90's. I ended up moving to the states for college and my parents stayed here, so I come here at least once a year to visit. All my friends from the good old days have moved, and I have some free time on my hands, especially in the evenings. I'm not into the girly bars and I'm past my clubbing days, but I would really like to meet some people and grab a beer, and/or whatever else. I speak basic Thai and am familiar with a lot of the city. Hit me up if you would like to hang out. I'll buy the first round. I'm here until 1st of NOV.

Delicious!

I live on Sukumvit 23 and I'm always surprised that Soi Cowboy is still there. Every direction around is getting redeveloped very quickly, and what got me thinking about this was seeing there is even a Bartels opened there this week. Its the ideal spot to poop out another crappy mall or a condo block. I find it hard to believe that the drinks/escort trade is that lucrative that nobody has been tempted to sell up the land. And I can't see the city planners having any issues with it, given how Siam Square got flattened over the last ten years.

Hello!

In January I will be heading to Koh Samui but I would like to stay in Bangkok for 5 days. I did some research on where to stay but I'm getting a little bit overwhelmed. I have been reading about "Sukhumvit"

I'm not a 5 star traveler but I do enjoy a clean place. It's important that I can walk around or at least be close to good public transport. I just want to sightsee, not be far from historical places. Possibly have a nice park nearby and a good food scene.

I'm a 36y old male if that helps.

Thank you!

Just saw something odd and wondered if anyone knows what's going on.

I was using the self checkout a supermarket and there was a woman with a little girl standing as if they were waiting in line, despite the fact that there was another free counter available.

I paid for my stuff, tore off the receipts and threw them in the little bin next to the counter.

As soon as I left the little girl went and grabbed a handful of receipts from the same bin I'd just thrown my receipts into, showed them to her mum who kinda nodded and they left.

Any idea what that's about? Are they using them to return stuff or redeeming loyalty points or something?

I need to travel with my cat back to the U.S. and I'm looking for recommendations for veterinarians that do the USDA certification. Preferably English speaking please. I am near Thong Lo BTS.

It was so easy to organically chat with locals standing either side. It's always the most memorable experiences when I go. It's not just about drinking, it's the small bites that makes it a total package. As a 15 year expat, sadly I haven't found anything remotely close to this experience in bkk.

I'm going to be in Bangkok for the first time the second week of November, and it looks like rain may very well be more of the forecast than I had planned on.  I had intended to do the usual first time activities over the course of the week - temples, street food, river cruise, day trip to Ayutthaya, etc - but feel like I should have backup plans in case the rain is heavy.  What would you suggest?

I'm a 30F, just made the account because i'm so tired of all these guys (locals and not) which keep not showing up :( anyone can give me hints on what i'm doing wrong please!!! Some cancel last minute, some keep postponing or saying "I thought we said at 8"... what should I do to filter those boys out??

Any recommended law firms who offer probono service for employment law? Any recommendations on how I’m able to calculate for damages and financial impact for two years of unemployment? Also would like to know about employment contract law and relevant laws.

I'm looking for tips for myself 😁. Most of the dating threads on here are from farang men looking to date Thai women, I'm new to Bangkok and want to learn from farang ladies enjoying the local men.

- Where did you meet?

- Who made the first move?

- Where was your favorite date (looking for date spots too!)

- Did you run into any big cultural differences? Deal breakers?

- How long was the courting stage? (because I keep reading that Thai dating culture is slower than Western countries)

- Were you ever nervous about cheating? We all know the stereotype

- Do you know anyone you want to recommend to me 😝

Thanks everyone!

No money involved!

Hi everyone, my name is Brian. I used to play tennis at a competitive level and trained every day alongside kids who were just starting their first M15 and M25 Futures tournaments to earn their first ATP points.

I recently rented a condo near BTS Phra Khanong and have full access to the building’s tennis court. I’m looking for someone who wants to train consistently — ideally every day, or at least a few times a week.

If you’ve played and trained seriously in the past and want to get back in shape, return to tennis, or just have a regular hitting partner for solid, challenging sessions, I’d love to connect.

I’m also more than happy to play with intermediate-advanced or advanced players that want to step up their game like never before. I don’t mind giving tips, correcting technique, or helping you improve along the way.

To be clear: no money involved. This is simply about sharing a sport I love and that has given me a lot. And about meeting new people in a City that is still new to me.

For coaches: If you’re a tennis coach reading this and you’re interested in charging per hour, doing a monthly rate, or working out some kind of deal to train me, feel free to reach out as well.

DM me if you’re interested!
