Daily Thailand Budget April 2012

Hi guys, we've just visited Thailand and we kept a record of daily living costs and spends. From budget rooms to splurging on Starbucks, it's all there. Hopefully it will help people plan their trip a little.

Read our daily Thailand budget over at our blog

Cheers guys, happy travels

Maybe the OP meant this

This is pretty poorly written. Some of the prices are wrong. It isn't inclusive of very much. It is pretty much useless. A guidebook goes into much more detail.

It could be the wrong one, but it is all I could find on the site along the lines of what the OP posted.

ack! :/ Bottles of water and Chang haven't really gone up that much in price? Chang was 38 and water (usually bought the green one whichever that was :) was about 11. It's been 2 years but feels like just yesterday.

Just the mention of "splurging at Starbucks" is a worry. Even the most ignorant coffee drinker would disregard the OPs integrity

^^ Er, they think the rest of the world will be fascinated with what they're doing! And 1 per cent of the time they are quite interesting reading. Which leaves an awful lot wanting.
