Linda,
I would have to agree with Mel that the question is extremley general. Much like if I asked what to do in Ireland.
Here are a few things to consider for additional research:
-- Experience Khoa San Road in Bangkok--Insanity at it's finest
-- Take the river taxi in Bangkok for 10 or 15 Baht--cheap entertainment and a good way to get around.
-- Experience the complete massage deals--cheap and effective
-- Chaing Mai offers a whole new world. Trekking, massage classes, cooking classes, cheap dental work, great night market, Sunday market. Wait until you get there and figure out what to do. Plan on extending your trip here.
-- Take full advantage of the southern beaches and islands--stay in a bungalow.
-- Eperience the Full Moon Party on Ko Chaing
-- Ride in a tuk tuk, just once--beware of deals too good to be true unless you want to be taken "for a ride"
-- Experience the hippie/zen scene in Pai and Tonsai
MY best advise is to read the journals from Thailand and see what other bloggers are saying about Thailand. These are first hand accounts of our experiences from the road. Guide books are great information, but I rely more on first hand accounts from fellow travellers.
We have spent 30 days in Thailad and head out to Vietnam in the morning. n We will be returning for another 30 days after Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.
So much to do, so little time.
Happy research and Happy tails.
