Thanks for the reply Emil :) I have to go to bed now. Up working tomorrow morning.. But when I come back home, I'll see what's covered, and what's not. Cheers mate. Have a good night. Norty.

Ohhh, damn it..... The more I learn about this region, the more I want to go TODAY !!! :) raykaytat: I've been reading on that site you recommended.. Very informative. carcareers: A few days ago I saw a documentary from Angkor Wat on Discovery Channel. It was fantastic... An absolutely MUST SEE !! Unfortunately I can't go until October.. After a search on Google, I found a small studio at View Talay for 9350 Baht pr.month. That's not bad is it ? But... There's a but here Is that a gay place ?? It seems like it on a few sites.. I ain't too keen on that. Take care mates. Northy.

Lemon: Thanks for your reply... Yeah, I know that area isn't very safe.. I heard flights were very cheap down there?, so incase, I'll jump on a plane to Malaysia.... In Cambodia I would love to go see Angkor Wat.. Anybody been there ? By the way, what does p4p mean ?? Take care, Northy

Thanks Raykaytat. Been looking a little around. What is this View Talay ?? It's a building ? I also noticed there were two of them... Project 1 and 2. One in Pattaya and one in Jomtien.. It's far from Jomtien to Pattaya ? Thanks, Northy.

Hi there mates.. Thanks for all your reply's.... It's a great thing newbies like me can ask "veterans" for advice's. Hehe, I don't think I would like to live in a ghetto.. I have applyed to the members section, but have got no reply yet. Actually, I would rather live somewhere Thai owned... I figure they need my money more than people from Europe. Carcareers: My daytime plans ?? Hmm, not sure... Guess it will be tourist stuff. IE one day relaxing at the beach, the other day go see a temple, the tiger park etc. Would also love to go look around in that region. Perhaps go to Cambodia and Malaysia.. And of course, would have to spend some days in Bangkok. Take care. Northy.

Thanks again for your reply... Well, yes, it might be better to pay a little more, and live decent while there... Another question... Is there much bugs there ? Do I have to expect having my room full of those ?? And also, is there much crime ? Or can I be relativly safe walking arond "drunk & happy" alone at night ? Cheers, Northy

Cheers mate !! I was thinking about spending around 6000 THB a month... I figure I'll spend my money on other things than a place to live.. Where's the soi buhkao area at ?? Far from downtown ? By the way, being a newbie and all.... What does soi mean ?? Thanks alot for helping out. Northy

Hi Ting Tong. Thank you very much for answering... I have really no idea about the prices there, but I heard it's cheap... Would I get a decent place with a maid twice a week for around £100 a month ??? Take care. Northy.

Hi there.. I'm thinking about spending this winter in Pattaya. Does anybody know where to go, for renting a cheap, but clean place to camp while there ??? I would need something like a studio.. Was thinking from around after the monsun (September????) and till mid December.. Then again from mid January till late April if I like it there. The place should be near the beach, near or in downtown Pattaya. And yes, of course, they would have to accept overnight visitors every now and then Hope somebody would help me recommend a place. Take care. Northy
