I’ve been traveling through Thailand, the last three weeks. I have decided not to bargain with anyone because from my home country the currency here is extremely cheap. I’m not rich man in the United States, but I can easily afford Thai prices without bargaining. It makes me happy to be able to support local thais and be an ecotourist

@jamalgreen3056 3 ай бұрын

U can bargain and still live good the fact that all of u are trying to live luxury just because things are cheaper doesn’t make any sense because u aren’t lowering your cost of living that way🤔.

# 00 It is very important for everyone to respect their currency. The currency in Thailand, both paper and coin, bears a portrait of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej or a deceased relative. Do not step on a coin to stop it from rolling away or step on a Thai banknote to stop it from blowing away.

He hasn't been king for 6 years and his picture is no longer on the currency. Rama X is. Other than that, you're right about respecting the currenccy.

I spend the majority of my time in the night life areas and I see many farang make the same mistake over and over again. When it comes to bar girls, just because you buy them a drink DOES NOT mean you own them! They are there for WORK!. If she gets up to greet another farang, and she then sits with him, Do Not get upset! She is WORKING!! Understand? Don't let that self righteous, self entitled fragile ego put you on the wrong foot over $3.00.
