No wonder people love to travel to Thailand these days. It's
hot. It's fun. And it's cheap. Everything here is cheap --
hotels, food, shopping -- you name it. A coconut costs 20 baht
(that's around 50 cents -US). A bowl of noodle costs from 30 to
70 baht (depending on how nice the restaurant is). Hotels in Thailand are cheap. They have hotels to suit any
budget you have. If you're a backpacker and want to stay in
Bangkok, Kaosan road is your ideal destination. It's dirt cheap.
If you have deeper pocket, you can stay in a small hotel for
$40. But if you have $100 or $200, go for a nicer hotel. It's
all worth it. You can be sure that the service is second to
none. When you leave Bangkok for the beach, you have the choice
of cheap bungalows or prettier resorts. You can book a room in
advance or you can just walk in. Feel free to a look around and
pick the resort you like once you get there. You'll have a great time in Thailand. Bangkok is the capital.
And you shouldn't miss it for the world. Dress politely and take
a taxi to the Grand Palace, Wat Pra Kaew ("Wat" means temple in
Thai) and

Some are even fortunate enough to meet someone with whom they intend to spend the rest of their life. It often becomes necessary to bring this special someone back to the USA.
