Travelling abroad is a huge undertaking, and can be very intense depending where you are going, how far away it is, how long you will be staying, and how different the language and culture are. We are visiting The Kingdom of Thailand (a monarchy) which is on the complete opposite side of the world, with exactly a 12 hour time difference, and sooo many other differences! It can be both exciting and overwhelming, but mostly exciting!!
There are lots of great resources out there to help you learn about experience and integration into other societies, especially webpages, travel books, and blogs!
Here are some that I have found particularly useful while researching Thailand:
- Virtual Tourist, Thailand-blogs, Bangkok.com
- Foreign Affairs Canada, Royal Thai Embassy ,
- Buddhist Travel
- Lonely Planet's 'Thailand' by J. Cummings, S. Bao, S. Martin, C. Williams
- Moon's 'Living Abroad in Thailand' by S. Nam
- A Valid Passport
- A Thai Visa
- A flight to Thailand
- A return flight/ongoing flight out of Thailand
 |
| Our Visa Applications, Passports, and Travellers hand books. |
Its also a good idea to have:
- Travel Insurance
- Up-to-date vaccinations
- Copies of all documents-Paper and electronic
- A Hotel Reservation for when you arrive in Thailand
- Thai currency
- Credit cards or emergency money
