    Very helpful Wayne, thanks. As far as shopping, two direct from China stores are getting real popular in the U.S., Temu and Shein. I use Temu frequently, this stuff is not only dirt cheap, but it is also pretty decent quality. I def. recommend.

      Nice one Dan, I will have to look into Temu.

    I'm sure you're onto exchanging your pound at the best times of the year due to the fluctuations of the Thai baht? I hear you can save 7-10% by knowing the best times? Seems the trend is similar yearly? Cheers👍

      I’ve never seen any pattern in changing money mate, so that’s not something I’ve seen. Interesting if that’s right 👍

    Great work. I definitely would say Bolt is cheaper than Grab for transportation. I used it exclusively in Chiang Mai when I was there last time. Although it isn't available in all parts of Thailand, and Grab seems to be more universally available. Also, in some cases I've had more trouble finding a driver with Bolt and when I used Grab I haven't had the same problem. Perhaps having both and comparing would be helpful. I definitely disagree with your assessment of Agoda. But I found something unusual last time I was in Thailand regarding Agoda. When I used my phone from home with a US number I got some super deals, picked a hotel and paid with a CC, no hassle, but when I switched out the SIM with a Thai one, the super deals disappeared and I got hit with these "coupon" type offers that seemed to force me to pay a high price up front and somehow get reimbursed later. Needless to say I switched back to my US SIM card.

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Nice! I’ve never used Bolt but Grab always seems to be reliable most of the time . Agoda and Booking no different really. Both with have better deals on certain days. Booking has always been my preferred but both do the job. Cheers 👍

    Looking at your example of Wise, that looks like an expensive way to send money.
    Western Union from my debit card to the bank costs me $1.99 no matter the size of the transaction.

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I’ll have to look into that. I’ve never been a big fan of Western Union but I’ll give it a look. Wise is really convenient with so many other things , so not sure what else western Union can do. I’ve got no problems with the wise fees, still cheap but WU does sound cheap, I’ll look it up.

    If your in a big city many times grab will fail if it’s busy , so bolt is a good back up

      Chloe is always my top recommendation mate. She doesn’t have a shop so need to contact her on Facebook. I’ll leave the link below. She’s a Farang so she’s straight down the line and never no problems with Chloe. Or if you prefer a shop, there’s many popular ones. Mango Scooters, D2 and Mr Mechanic are sone of the good ones.
      Here’s Chloe’s page - facebook.com/share/zRLGyDGZ4vVf69tW/?mibextid=LQQJ4d
      She delivers to the hotel and picks up again also.

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh, I just realized you probably won't be here for a month and Chloe normally only does long term. So any of the other shops will do the trick mate.
