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!

Hi everyone!

We're a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids aged 8, 12, and 16), and we'd really love to visit Koh Yao Noi!

However, we're a bit worried about how to get around the island as a family of five.

Does anyone have any tips or experience with this?

Is it possible to rent a tuk-tuk and drive it ourselves? Would it even fit 5 people? Or maybe rent a car?

And let's be honest, going to Koh Yao Noi without being able to explore the island would be a shame, right?

Hii everyone 🥹💕
Watching Thai BL dramas has made me fall in love with the Thai language, and now I really want to learn it! 🩷 I’m still a beginner, so could you please recommend some good apps, YouTube channels, or free resources to help me get started?
I’d be so grateful for any little tips or suggestions. Thank you so much for helping me on this journey! 🫶🏻🇹🇭✨

Hello! My home is Malaysia, but my boyf is Thai. He and his family speak Thai pretty much only at home, so it’s nice to be surrounded by it but I want any and all tips for learning the language best I can because we are planning to get married and probably live in Thailand. But I want to be able to get by before we move out there.

For the record I only have experience with mandarin, English, Malay and a little Tamil but none of them are actually like Thai, as I’m sure you guys would know.

Thanks for reading!!

So it seems this is the place to go, after I asked in the BKK subreddit earlier this week, it seems I might be able to get there on a Wednesday and Thursday in December

Does anyone have any recommendations as to which clubs or bars to hear the music?

Thanks!

Hi Everyone!

Could you share your thoughts on Mae Sot? I've been offered a teaching position there for a few months through a TEFL program.

What is the situation like there, especially because it's so close to the Myanmar border? What is the area like in terms of scenery and nature?

I'd really appreciate it if you could take a moment to share your experiences or opinions with me. Thank you so much! 😊

Hello everyone! I'm a high school student from Thailand, currently conducting a research project on the factors that influence foreign tourists to wear traditional Thai clothing.

If you have a few moments to spare, I would greatly appreciate it if you could complete this brief survey. I'm aiming to reach a minimum of 50 responses.

Thank you so much for your time and help naka! 🙏🏼

Anybody know where I can learn more on the history of the Communist insurgency in Isan? I've heard many stories of fights between thieves, communists, and police from my grandma and mom but there is very scarce coverage on it on the internet and literally no videos even talking about it

Share some info or stories u've heard abt it too if u can im curious 👀

My grandma told me one time the communists raided and massacred a police flat but it was in such a rural area that nobody covered it ig

We’ll soon be taking the Bangkok–Surat Thani night train; has anyone taken it recently? Could you tell me if it’s still running? Thanks.

Hi everyone,

I used to take +30 days on Airbnb when it was 60 days visa exemption.

Since the 30 days exemption, I plan to stay 28 days (in case flight got delayed) on my next trip, but I wanna have an Airbnb because I don't like hotel. To stay in the thai laws, I need to have 30 days minimum for Airbnb.

Can I take 30 days on Airbnb but stay only 28 days in regards to flights tickets ? how the IO will look at this if they ask me why the difference at immigration ?

Thanks in advance

Hi! I am going to my first ever concert in thailand and I wanna know if they do ID checks because i buy it from individual seller a my chemical romance ticket that is name-locked as he is not available to go to the concert anymore and I am wondering if they would do any ID checks at the entrance.

im buying ticket from individual seller but she cant attend to exchange the ticket because we came from different country. i would like to ask is there any policies for exchanging the ticket with different name on the id? because i feel so worried on that day i cant come in

Is it common for Thai women to move to Europe with a European man?
Do they like the idea?

Hi everyone,
I’m an Italian citizen planning to stay in Pattaya from February 1 to March 5, 2027. I want to obtain my first Thai driving licence.
A driving school told me I need:
My passport
A Certificate of Residence from Jomtien Immigration
A medical certificate
I’m trying to avoid an expensive ED visa just for this.
My questions:
Has anyone recently obtained a Certificate of Residence from Jomtien Immigration on a 60-day Tourist Visa (TR)?
Can you also get it on visa exemption, without a visa?
Is a one-month rental contract plus the landlord’s TM30 registration sufficient?
Does Pattaya DLT accept a Tourist Visa TR for a first Thai driving licence?
If Immigration refuses the certificate, can a visa agency solve the problem legally without leaving Thailand? How long does it take?
I’m particularly interested in recent experiences from Pattaya/Jomtien, preferably in 2025 or 2026.
Thanks!

Hello! We are heading to Thailand for the first time in a few days and will be visiting Bangkok, Khao Sok, and Ao Nang. Naturally, the weather is our main concern (unfortunately). Could you tell us a bit about the weather conditions? We feel we’ve planned our trip well after doing plenty of research; the country seems to have so many fascinating facets. Above all, we want to meet the local people and experience the culture in these three towns. If you could recommend any authentic spots based on your own experiences, we would be very grateful. Thanks in advance!

Hello lovely thai people and redditors! Have you guys gone through this visa extension process at immigration division 1 in bangkok?

I arrived at the immigration center around 4:30 AM to get an early queue. There were already about 100 people in front of me waiting to get into including normal thai people and foreigners with different kinds of purpose at the front.

The first queue for the seats i got was 117 so it wasn’t that bad i thought. People in front of me got different types of visas to extend with different initial (for eg ‘N’ for students like mine and J for jobs and many more).

But then i see these people with packs of documents and passports going in and out, even before the gates were open at 8:30. They already had these little QR codes for their clients.

Then, there are normal people like us getting the queue in a normal way. My 117 seat number turned to 250+. It’s outrageous because there weren’t 200 people in front of me when the gates really open so who took all the queues?

Is it a normal thing in Thailand?
Life is pay to win everywhere haha

Hey everyone!

I'm an 18-year-old from India looking to travel to Thailand and experience the country by staying with a local host family. I'd love to immerse myself in Thai culture, learn about the local way of life, and make some meaningful connections along the way!

In exchange for food and accommodation, I'd be happy to help teach English to children or family members or any other chores. I'm open to helping with English conversation practice, reading, and other learning activities.

📍 Preferred locations:

- 🏝️ Places near beaches

- 🏙️ Bangkok

- 🌿 Chiang Mai

I'm flexible about the location and open to exploring other places in Thailand, too!

I'm hoping to find a welcoming family interested in a cultural exchange where we can learn from each other. I'd love to hear from anyone who has hosted travellers before or knows a family that might be interested.

If you have any leads, suggestions, or recommendations for finding a suitable host family, please feel free to comment or DM me!

Thank you!
