Hanging out in Chiang Mai - Just landed!
This is supposed to be a better City in Thailand. I hear it's very walkable unlike Bangkok which is 10 million people and takes forever to get anywhere
Not bad for $30/day!
$3 dinner

Yes, that is exactly what you need. Cheap budget accommodation and $3 rice and papaya meals being the "millionaire" that you are.GerardButler wrote: ↑March 24th, 2023, 2:41 pmThis is supposed to be a better City in Thailand.

Enjoy. Be happy.GerardButler wrote: ↑March 24th, 2023, 2:41 pmThis is supposed to be a better City in Thailand. I hear it's very walkable unlike Bangkok which is 10 million people and takes forever to get anywhere
I prefer BKK though. Las Vegas in Asia.
There's Tiger Kingdom which I went to and it was awesome to see the tigers. But afterwards I felt sorry for them because they're all heavily sedated on drugs.

It is evident that you do not know much about this city, as the majority of housing costs around that amount being a college town. You wouldn't know anything about that, being a 3rd grade dropout

It's all about mixing it up. Here's a nice report on Bangkok: https://culturewhiz.org/trip-reports/ba ... rs-singleskangarunner wrote: ↑March 24th, 2023, 5:14 pmEnjoy.

Tigers would be nice for social media posts!

Good luck with your rice and papaya based dishes

Northern Thailand has been always cheaper for a living as a foreigner than other parts of Thailand.GerardButler wrote: ↑March 24th, 2023, 2:41 pmThis is supposed to be a better City in Thailand. I hear it's very walkable unlike Bangkok which is 10 million people and takes forever to get anywhere

$3 dinner
Also the area is nicer compared to Eastern Thailand (Isaan)
Now is end of winter season, many foreigners are leaving and nice hotel rooms are quite cheap. Baht 1000,- or so...
Walkable? Not really however, this is not such a small area with more than 1 million people around.
Chiang Mai city itself has only about 150.000 people but traffic is quite dense in the inner part - often pollution is a problem too.
If you want to go around Chiang Mai area for sightseeing you better rent a motorcycle (however you need a driving licence for motorcycles and a helmet and police now is checking about it frequently)
-----
Dinner for USD 3,-? For 100 baht?
The menu you show us indicates otherwise - USD 10, 12, 13 for a simple meal

Yeah, when you're physically fit, your body doesn't crave a lot of unnecessary food.
You, on the other hand, could probably not walk five minutes without requiring medical assistance.

I think you're BS'ing us. I think a millionaire would stay in a much nicer place like the Tolani Northgate Villa Chiang Mai. (5 star, .8km from centre).GerardButler wrote: ↑March 24th, 2023, 5:56 pmIt is evident that you do not know much about this city, as the majority of housing costs around that amount being a college town.

I enjoy having an assortment of modest dishes and options.
Many foreigners are also fleeing Phuket, and prices are falling rapidly. Phuket, unlike Chiang Mai, has a beach and clean air. Chiang Mai is amidst the smoky season. The air quality in northern Thailand, particularly in Chiang Mai, is at an all-time low now.

This one looks nice too. The Inside House. https://www.the-insidehouse.com/gallery/
Junior Suite with Private Pool - Full Bed. $300/night. Way above his budget.

Re: Hanging out in Chiang Mai - Just landed!
Right, that room is smaller and presumably has a lot of mosquitoes due to its proximity to the ground floor. There is also no exercise center with a sauna, 24-hour room service, a Jacuzzi bath with a separate shower, or a business center with secretarial services.Voyager1 wrote: ↑March 25th, 2023, 8:30 amI think you're BS'ing us.

Another shitty deal. I have a king-sized bed and the pool is on the seventh floor a long with two restaurants over looking the city.Voyager1 wrote: ↑March 25th, 2023, 8:40 amThis one looks nice too. The Inside House. https://www.the-insidehouse.com/gallery/

No need for millionaires to travel up to the cheapest region of Thailand.
I recommend for true millionaires only (not suitable for PAG) after arrival in Bangkok a VIP transfer straight to the Royal Wing Suites & Spa in Pattaya, PRESIDENTIAL PLATINUM SUITE, 336 m2 = 3,616.7 ft² - it is about USD 3200,- per night.
