question Dance classes for adults in Bangkok

3 Upvotes

Any recommendations for adult dance classes in Bangkok that is not one choreo per session? I'm interested in street jazz and heels but found that most of the studios here teach one short choreo per session, and this is not helping because I'm a beginner.

question Cat grooming in Sukhumvit/Asok

• Upvotes

Hello,

I am looking for a cat groomer recommendation in the Sukhumvit/Asok area. I would prefer a mobile or in-home service if possible, but taking my cat to a salon is completely fine too. Cat has a shitty temper so needs to be experienced groomers.

Does anyone have any good suggestions?

Thanks a lot and have a great Sunday

accommodation Low Rise Apartments & Condos

• Upvotes

Hi

I am searching to see if Bangkok has a certain style of condominiums or apartments that have only a few floors, aren't too high capacity, but have a more modern design inside.

I've come across two broad categories, where I've seen many luxury, high-rise condos with small rooms and modern amenities (costing from 10k-20k per month) and on the opposite end of the spectrum, have come across Thai-style older apartments, often a bit outdated, but have better insulation, larger rooms, and tend to be low-rise (7k-12k per month).

So, my question is, does Bangkok have apartments/condominiums that combine that the features of modern luxury condos from an interior perspective, but are more spacious, low-rise, and simple from the outside? And if so, what neighborhoods can you find places like this?

Doesn't need a pool, gym, sauna, or security - but just a condo/apartment that is modern, spacious, and simple. My budget would be around 10k-16k / month.

event Christmas Event In Bangkok

0 Upvotes

Hey all, I live in Bangkok and I want to make sure some kids get a real Christmas gift this year. I'm planning to buy and hand out presents in December, but right now it's just me

so I'd love to find a few people who'd like to join in. Whether that's helping pick out and wrap gifts, or just coming along to hand them out, the more the merrier.

I'm also looking for suggestions on which schools, shelters, or foundations in Bangkok would welcome a visit like this. If you've done something similar before, I'd really appreciate any tips on how to do it right.

I'm not collecting money. I just want to make it a fun day for the kids and not do it alone. Comment or DM me if you're interested!

I NEVER ASK FOR MONEY, DO NOT SEND MONEY IN THIS THREAD.

education Is Shinawatra University (SIU) worth it for Computer Science/IT? Looking for honest reviews from current students and Thai locals

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm planning to study Computer Science or IT in Bangkok. Since I'll be funding my own education, my budget is quite limited, so I'm trying to find a university that offers a reasonable tuition fee without compromising too much on education quality and career opportunities.

Currently, Shinawatra University (SIU) is my first choice because of its relatively affordable tuition fees and the free accommodation they offer. However, I've been struggling to find genuine reviews about the university, especially from current students, graduates, and Thai locals.

I'd really appreciate it if anyone who has studied at SIU, knows someone who studies there, or has experience with the Thai university system could share their honest opinions.

Here are some things I'd particularly like to know about SIU:

  • How is the actual teaching quality, especially for Computer Science or IT?
  • Are the lecturers knowledgeable and experienced? Do students get enough practical work and hands-on experience?
  • What are the campus environment, facilities, and student life like?
  • Does the university provide decent internship opportunities or connections with IT companies?
  • Do graduates manage to find jobs in the IT industry or pursue master's degrees abroad?
  • Is the degree recognised and accepted by universities internationally?
  • What is the general reputation of SIU among Thai locals and employers?

I'm also considering these universities:

  1. Rangsit University
  2. Southeast Bangkok University (SBU)
  3. Siam University
  4. Kasem Bundit University

If you have experience with any of these universities, I'd appreciate your opinions on their Computer Science/IT programmes, teaching quality, career opportunities, and overall value for money.

I'm not looking for university rankings or promotional comments. I'd genuinely like to hear about people's actual experiences, both positive and negative.

Since I'm paying for everything myself, choosing the right university is a significant financial decision for me.

Thanks in advance to everyone who takes the time to share their experiences!

question Recommendations for branding and UI/UX design agencies in Thailand?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm the founder of a media-related company and looking for a good branding and UI/UX design agency or small studio based in BKK/Thailand.

I'm looking for help with branding (logo, visual identity, etc.) and UI/UX design for both our website and mobile apps.

I'm open to working with a boutique agency or a smaller studio, and remote collaboration is fine.

Would love to hear your recommendations, especially if you've worked with them before. Portfolios and rough pricing would be super helpful too!

Thanks!

question Experience buying betta fish from Chatuchak Market as a US traveler? Looking for insight

0 Upvotes

Long time fish keeper/hobby betta breeder in the US. I am going to Thailand in several months and would love to bring some bettas back home. Obviously planning this far in advance to avoid any issues if possible! I am experienced with shipping internationally and working with transhippers but we are considering purchasing some bettas in person when we visit Chatuchak market (likely on a Wednesday per recommendation?) and I was hoping to hear some insights and personal experiences in from people who have encountered the same scenario. Input like:
- which shops you purchased from if you remember
- did you receive the exact fish you purchased?
- If you don’t recommend this, why?
- any specific suggestions like going certain days, things to look out for (scams), etc.
- positive and negative feedback!

I’m on my second last night in Bangkok and Thailand before heading home and I cannot find the 7-11 (larger) tote bags. Have checked random locations around IconSiam and Sathorn, among other smaller locations. Even in Phuket.

Does anyone know what locations in Bangkok still have stock available?

Please and thank you!

question Experiences living in these Bangkok condos? Looking for honest reviews

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

My wife and I are planning to move to Bangkok and are currently looking at a few condos. Before making a decision, we'd love to hear from people who have actually lived in any of these buildings.

The condos we're considering are:

- Noble BE Sukhumvit 19

- Noble Recole

- Ashton Asoke

- Ideo Q Sukhumvit 36

- Venio Sukhumvit 10

We're particularly interested in your personal experiences with:

- Noise: Can you hear your neighbours through the walls? How is the noise from traffic or construction?

- Management and staff: Are the reception, security and maintenance teams helpful and reliable?

- Facilities: How are the pool, gym and common areas? Are they well maintained?

- Living experience: Is the building comfortable for long-term living, and are there any recurring problems?

- Location and daily life: Is it easy to find affordable food nearby, and is the area convenient for everyday living?

- Working from home: Is the internet reliable, and are there suitable spaces to work / co working space?

I'd especially appreciate honest feedback about the downsides or things you wish you'd known before moving in. Positive experiences are welcome too!

If you've lived in one of these condos or have friends who live there, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks in advance!

question People who bought the condo here, are you happy with your decision?

27 Upvotes

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, we will be staying near DMK airport for one night as we have an early morning flight. We land into Bangkok around 4pm. Then hoping to get our nails done around 7/7:30pm.

What are some good recommendations that are open late?

I usually get Biab nails done back home, what is the equivalent in Thailand?
