- About souvenirs, it isn’t serious topic. It doesn’t need to be expensive (around 100 yen or less than). Anime or small snack are also okay. It is better to prepare one souvenir for one.
- If you have congenital disease, please prepare your own medicine. Moreover, if your stomach is sensitive, please prepare medicine for diarrhea (because Thai food is quit spicy). Just in case, for general disease (such as headache, stomach ache and so on), we can buy medicine easily and cheap.
- March is Thailand summer season. Generally, it is hot and dry. Umbrella is not necessary. You can ware casual style (T-shirt and jeans) but not short and not sandal. Suit is not necessary. For woman, very short skirt, very short pants (shorter than knees) and sleeveless shirt are not polite. CAUTION: you cannot enter temples if you are in not polite clothes.
- In Thailand, sunshine is stronger than in Japan. Thus a hat, cap or parasol is useful for you.
- We cannot drink water from tap in Thailand. But we can buy drinking water easily and cheap (around 60 Yen for 2 liter).
- During city survey, all bag type is okay (depends on your favorite). But rucksack may be more convenient.
