Bonjour,
je me rends dans 1 mois en thailande et je cherche a acheter pour ma maison qui est vide la-bas des meubles a bangkok ou a pattaya
Je cherche également transat et meubles de jardin bref il n'y a rien dans la maison elle est neuve donc j'ai tout a acheter!!!
Si quelqu'un a de bonnes adresse ?
merci d'avance
Pour la maison, tu as les chaines "Home Work" et "Home Pro", tu y trouveras un peu pres tout ce que tu veux pour l'ammenagement interieur et aussi exterieur.
Pour les meubles, dans le classique tu as HB Fourniture, Index, Koncept ...., tu dois pouvoir trouver tout cela sur Pattaya egalement.

merci pour ta réponse
je cherche plutot des meubles " exotiques" que des meubles classiques
peut être une adresse sur bangkok pour HOME WORK et HOME PRO?
merci
Pour Home pro et home work, fait une recherche google, il y en a un peu partout ..., si tu veux du meuble exotique, va plutot sur Chatuchak dans ce cas ou Sanam Luang 2 ....
il y a une rue pres du metro Bang sue , soi pracha naruemit .
si tu cherches des meubles en bambou , je connais un coin .Pour te situer c est a 70 100 km de Saraburi ee allant sur l est , la route qui mene a Poipet ( Cambodge )
Pour moi , ce qui se fait de mieux et la ou il a le plus de choix c est Chang Mai et sa region .
Je connais un magasin avec beaucoup de choix aussi et possibilites de commander sur catalogue. Le patron est de Chang Mai . C est avant Lopburi

Bjr,
Vous prenez n'importe quelle highway en sortant de BKK, et sur 10 ou 20 km vous trouverez des petits fabriquants de meubles de toutes sortes sur les bords de la route: bois locaux, aluminium, contreplaqué, etc...

chatuchak market je connais , je vais essayer d'y passer le dimanche, mais sanam luang 2, c'est également un marché ou un centre commercial?

Bonjour Thuan, Et certains y ont meme le "bam... " !!!! ( ci-joint article de liberation.fr que j avais mis sur le forum mais qu'un "ayatollah "moderateur n a pas du apprecié et me l'a censuré. Vu le contexte , le lieu et la nationalité inattendue des participants, la modicité de l'amende je trouvais celà assez marrant mais bon certains n'ont pas d'humour. La police thaie s'est montrée indulgente et comprehensive , les malheureux iraniens n'ont guére l'occasion de se defouler chez eux.
Bonne semaine . jean
Thaïlande: une amende de 10 euros pour avoir fait l'amour sur la plage La ville thaïlandaise de Pattaya, connue dans le monde entier pour ses excès en tout genre et son industrie du sexe, a sans doute fait perdre la tête à un couple d'Iraniens, surpris vendredi au petit matin en train de faire l'amour sur la plage devant des spectateurs ravis. «Je faisais ma tournée en moto quand j'ai vu une vingtaine de personnes dont des touristes rassemblés sur la plage. En allant voir ce qui se passait, j'ai constaté que deux Iraniens nus étaient en train de faire l'amour», a expliqué à l'AFP Jamras Thongjinda, capitaine de police à Pattaya. L'homme et sa compagne, respectivement âgés de 28 et 25 ans, ont payé une amende de 50 baht (10 euros) pour acte indécent dans un lieu public. Titulaires de passeports de la République islamique, où ce genre d'excentricité leur aurait coûté certainement beaucoup plus cher, ils ont avoué avoir commis leur forfait après avoir vidé ensemble une bouteille de vodka.

Des parents ont fait leurs achats sur Ban Tawaï ( articles de magasin et certains meubles sur commande ) près de Chiang Maï et ont été livré sur Hua Hin.
Intéressant puisqu'ils ont meublé toute leur maison en une seule livraison.
Le " cri tiqueur " est le rêveur qui ne s'assume pas !
Special dedication ;)

merci sawadee mais je ne désire pas monter sur chiang mai
bangkok ou pattaya je pense que ce sera suffisant
De plus j'ai 3 semaines donc besoin des meubles de suite et pas sur commande
en tout cas merci encore pour ta réponse
bonjour en regardant sur internet j'ai vu MBK center, cela vaut il le coup pour des meubles?
A mon avis , ce genre de centre commerciaux , ça doit couter plus cher que si tu vas dans un magasin en bord de route ou ils ont moins de frais et donc les prix sont plus interessant ...
Lopburi , est ce trop loin ( c est a 160 km au nord de BKK ) ???
Lopburi , est ce trop loin ( c est a 160 km au nord de BKK ) ???
Bonjour,
oui c'est trop loin car ensuite je descend sur pattaya qui par contre est tout près de la maison de ban phé,
je ferais des recherches par la également
salut es que le breton a un pic up car sa change les donnees ...... 😉
tiens pour les amateurs de bambous ceux simples que on vois dans certains restos de plein air ..
4 chaises 1 table 1, 000 bt ( juste pour donner une idée des prix )

je suis un particulier qui viens juste d'acheter cette maison, je vis en france,
j'ai moi même créer ce site, avec mes petites connaissance limitées en internet.
Non je n'ai pas de voiture car je pense me rendre 3 fois par an 2 ou 3 semaines, et louer la maison le reste du temps Mais plus tard pour ma retraite, bien entendu je passerais le plus clair de mon temps en thailande et la l'investissement d'une voiture sera necessaire
Voila tu sais tout, ou presque, je pense que cela t'a éclairé sur moi
pour le sawatdee khraa je dois marquer quoi alors?

Si tu n'as pas de voiture, regarde plutot sur Rayon, comme tu es an Ban Phe (embarcadaire de Koh Sameth), tu trouveras certainement ton bonheur egalement. Au pire tu vas sur Satahip, voir Patapouf .....
Merci pour tes explications.
Vu que sur ta photo c est une femme qui dit sawadee alors c est ka ou kha . Sawadee ka
les hommes disent sawadee khrup
c est un peu plus complex que ça , mais je te laisse le decouvrir quand tu apprendras le thai...!!!

Bjr,
je ne peux confirmer que mes précédents messages;aux bords des routes, c'est là que vous aurez le plus de choix. Il y en a absolument partout, donc cherchez en partant de votre maison à louer, ça vous reviendra moins cher pour la livraison.
PS: vous faites un site de prestation commerciale, évitez les erreurs qui font vraiment "amateur"...😉

Si tu achetes pres de chez toi , il n y a pas de livraison a payer. Je n ai jamais payer de livraison , ni quand on nous a livré notre salon , ni pour le frigo , ni pour les 2 chambres et ça que se soit un petit ou un grand magasin.

...c'est exactement ce que je laisse entendre dans mon post...parce que si vous achetez à Bangkok et que vous faites livrer à Khon Kaen, je peux vous garantir que vous allez payer la livraison. Quand on vous dit "livraison gratuite "(ici comme partout!), c'est près du magasin, et si c'est plus loin, c'est que les frais ont été reportés sur les prix!...

Effectivement l'article n'a pas de quoi faire la une de l'information et est plutot banal de nos jours .
Mais compte tenu du lieu "sulfureux" ( Pattaya ) , de l'epoque ( ramadan) , de la nationalite inattendue des "acteurs" ( iraniens) et du contexte Politique actuel en Iran ( jeunesse bridée ) celà m a bien fait rigoler .
On s'attendrait plutot à trouver des anglos saxons bien imbibés à participer à de tels ebats.
Les flics thais doivent etre blasés ...
Ayons quand meme une pensée pour le peuple iranien qui vaut bien mieux que ses dirigeants actuels .

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for addresses for guesthouses or, even better, houseboats or rafting houses on the River Kwai, between Kanchanaburi and Sangkhlaburi, to spend a few weeks contemplating this beautiful river.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi there,
we’re currently in Mai Chau and tomorrow we’re hitting the road back to Hanoi to head up toward Bac Ha and Sapa.
We haven’t really had a set plan since we arrived—we’ve already done the Halong Bay on land and by sea.
I’ve got 2 free days before heading to Bac Ha and Sapa.
Any tips?
Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from you.

Hey everyone,
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip? I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
Thanks! 🙂

Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Thanks, friends, if you’ve got any suggestions.

Hello.
In 1996, we crossed Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi by motorbike—Minsk bikes we bought in Saigon. I haven’t been back since, and it seems like a lot has changed.
- We’re heading to the south (well, the north and center) with the family in July-August (3 people).
- Is the road network more developed now? Back then, there was only National Route 1 from south to north. I’m thinking of renting a car this time (no motorbike with the family—though in ’96, they had a Jawa sidecar for sale, and we hesitated… maybe it’s for the best).
- Is Halong Bay really something to avoid because of overtourism? Even back then, it was pretty crowded. Is there a less touristy alternative?
- We’ll be traveling from Hanoi down to Danang (the only city we didn’t stop in back in ’96). Even though it’s a bit overhyped in a Chinese-tourist kind of way (from what I’ve read), we’re only going for the beach—pure relaxation for 7 days. The beaches are stunning, and I know the South China Sea is warm like coffee.
- Then, we’ll visit Hoi An, where I stopped in ’96. It was already popular with backpackers back then, but no glowing boats or all the touristy fuss!
- After that, Hue, where I have great memories—it’s a beautiful city.
- And also the nature around Ninh Binh, followed by 2-3 days in Hanoi.
That’s the plan. I’d love to hear any tips to avoid mass tourism, and if anyone’s done this before: - Is it possible to rent a car in Danang and drop it off in Hanoi?
Thanks, and long live the Nam! !

Hey everyone,
I’m over in East Borneo in mid-July.
I’m struggling to wrap up the end of my itinerary, even though it’s pretty straightforward (long but simple).
Last year, we did Malaysia (KL and the mainland + around Kuching).
Day 1 – Arrive in Kota Kinabalu early, stroll around town and hit the must-sees. Day 2 – Excursion to Tunku Abdul Rahman Park, snorkeling at 3 islands. Day 3 – Hike around Mount Kinabalu without summiting (450 per person, no way). Day 4 – Poring Hot Springs + evening flight to Sandakan. Day 5-6-7 – Kinabatangan River (still looking for the right guide). Day 8 – Sepilok for the orangutans, the Sun Bear Centre, and Rainforest Discovery Centre. Day 9 – Selingan, turtle island. Day 10 – Head to Semporna. Day 11-12-13-14 – Sipadan, Mabul, Kapalai. Day 15 – Bohey Dulang. Day 16 to Day 25: I’M STUCK.
I looked into Danum Valley, but for 3 days/2 nights, they’re quoting 650 € per person—come on, that’s ridiculous. I checked out a detour into Indonesia (still East Borneo), but I’m having trouble deciding what would be amazing. I read about Sangalaki + Kakaban (2 islands, 1 base) / Mahakam Delta - Kutai (orangutans and river) / Sungai Boh (Dayak Kayan) – jungle & culture. But honestly, I’m struggling to finalize this itinerary. If we venture that way, we’d head back to KK from Balikpapan.
What do you all think? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,
For a 4-month stay in Egypt, I had ENORMOUS problems. The regulations are very bureaucratic and extremely nitpicky there. For a 4-month stay in the Philippines, I was wondering if the procedures are just as complicated? I’m bringing my cell phone with an eSIM. Should I choose a plan from Canada for use in the Philippines, or should I get a plan only once I arrive? After 30 days, do I renew with the Canadian provider I chose before leaving, or do I switch to a local company? Do I need to register my phone with the authorities in the Philippines? (That was the case in Egypt.) For the 3rd and 4th months, will it be just as simple—renewing with a Canadian or local provider—or should I expect problems?
Thanks for your opinions/answers! Marc Lamarre

Hello,
I’ll be in Malaysia with my wife, mainly in Langkawi and Penang for Christmas and New Year’s at the end of 2026.
If you’ve had the experience—and since I’ve read (though it’s not very clear) that these two islands get quite crowded during this period—would you recommend booking accommodation well in advance, or is it easy to find something on the spot?
Hotels or Airbnb?
Do you have any great tips for accommodation or any practical info to share?
We’ll be staying 5 to 7 days on each island.
Thanks in advance for your replies

Hi. Is it possible to take the train from Malacca to Ipoh? Thanks for your feedback.
Hi there,
We’re heading to Vietnam as a family on July 8th for a little over 3 weeks (north and center). We’ve only booked the first 3 nights in Hanoi, and nothing else after that. We like to decide things on the spot and go with the flow, without rushing everywhere. But I’m still a bit unsure: when heading down to the center (Hue), is it better to book the overnight trains in advance? We don’t want to take any flights while we’re there—just use the overnight train for the long trips. But I’m worried we won’t get seats if we buy the tickets on the spot, say, 2 days before. What do the experts here think? And which website can we use to book the tickets? Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hi everyone!
I’m heading back to Thailand in July 2026 with a stopover in Cambodia to visit the Angkor site.
After Angkor, I’ve booked a stay on Ko Chang island. Does anyone know if there are direct transport options from Cambodia to Ko Chang without having to go back through Bangkok? That would be amazing!!
I think there are, but I’d need more details!!
I went to Thailand in February 2025 and don’t remember having to apply for a visa—is that still the case now? And for Cambodia too?
Thanks so much!!!

Hello,
We’re a couple looking for a driver for 10 days to explore Northern Vietnam in April.
Best regards,
I’d love to get some feedback on our itinerary—it’s probably pretty basic! This is our second trip to Asia and our first to Indonesia. We have three kids aged 20, 18, and 12. We land in Jakarta at 4 PM, spend 3 nights/2 days there, then take the train to Yogyakarta for 3 nights/2 days, followed by the train to Surabaya for 2 nights/1 day, then the train to Bromo for 1 day/1 night, a private driver to Ijen for 2 nights/2 days, then on to Bali (Ubud) for 4 nights/3 days, followed by Gili Air for 3 nights/2 days, Senggigi (Lombok) for 2 nights, and finally 5 nights in Kuta. I’m considering cutting the 2 nights in Senggigi to just keep Kuta and extend it to 7 nights. In Lombok, I’m not sure how to get around since I’m not comfortable with scooters... Your thoughts on all of this, and any advice, are more than welcome—don’t hesitate!
For those wondering why cities like Jakarta and Surabaya: we don’t often get the chance to visit big Asian cities, so we wanted to include that discovery in our trip. The trains between Jakarta and Yogyakarta, Surabaya and Probolinggo are booked. The return flight from Lombok to Jakarta is also set. Accommodations are booked but flexible (same for the trains).
Thanks!

hi
I’ll be on a cruise on January 11, 2027. We’re stopping in Ho Chi Minh City (Phu My).
I’d love to see something other than the city—anyone have recommendations or a guide for 6-8 people with pickup at the port?
I’d really like to visit some rice paddies.

I’m traveling with my partner and our 16-year-old son.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Hi,
After our trip to China, we want to spend a week in the Philippines for some beach time and snorkeling.
We're looking for the best spot to settle in—nice beaches, great marine life, and short transfer times.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Hi there,
Does anyone know of a private transfer or taxi company that organizes transfers from the Sukhothai area to Chiang Mai? Our routes are Sukhothai-Lampang, Lampang-Chom Thong, and Chom Thong-Chiang Mai. My searches on Google Maps, 12Go, and others haven’t turned up much...
For our Bangkok-Sukhothai trips, I use a company I’ve already tried, but they don’t have a fleet available from Sukhothai and have to go through third-party companies—which, understandably, take their commission. This nearly doubles the prices...
There are four of us, and we’re not traveling light, so a minibus isn’t an option. ;-)
Thanks for your tips! DrSnuggle

Hello,
While traveling in Thailand, I’m looking for a Buddhist kumlai reed bracelet.
Does anyone know where I can find one?
In Bangkok, I visited a few temples but didn’t see any in the nearby shops.
If you have any ideas, I’d love to hear them! Have a great day! :-)
Hi there
My trip’s coming up, and I’m having a bit of trouble with three bus/minivan routes. Usually, I find everything at this time of year, but this time—yikes!
Sandakan → Sepilok: No app for this one—you just hop on bus #14 at the local terminal (pay cash on board). But where do I catch it, and where’s the stop??
Sandakan → Semporna: From what I’ve heard, it’s the Sida Express company (great name, right? 😄). Can’t book online, but apparently, you *have* to because there’s only one bus at 8 AM. Where do I board, and where does it drop me off?
Semporna → Tawau: Found this via AI—is it legit? No online booking, as far as I can tell. Minivans leave from a stop in the Jalan Hospital area, near the Milimewa supermarket, supposedly???? And when you arrive, does it drop you at **Sabindo Square** in Tawau?????
Thanks for any tips—I’m stuck!

Hi there,
we’ll be in Mai Chau in June and we’re thinking of heading to Sapa, but first spending a few days in Bac Ha to do some hiking and explore the area.
Is this a good idea for those who’ve been there?
How do you get there?
Thanks for your feedback.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cédric.
Hi everyone. As I’m planning my trip for next winter, I’m looking for hotel suggestions in Camotes, Bantayan, Malapascua, Bohol, and Siquijor. The ones I had in mind seem to be fully booked (unless it’s too early?). For those familiar with the area, is it easy to find accommodations on the spot in January/February? I’m specifically looking for hotels with a pool, beachfront, air conditioning, and easy scooter rental nearby. Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
I’m planning an itinerary and would love some feedback on whether it’s doable and if the number of days per destination is enough—or too much. I was also debating whether to add an extra night on an island or spend an extra night in Kampot to visit Kep or Battambang.
March 23: Arrival in Phnom Penh in the morning March 24: Phnom Penh March 25: Phnom Penh March 26: Depart for Kampot March 27: Kampot March 28: Depart for Battambang March 29: Battambang March 30: Tonlé SAP to Siem Reap March 31: Siem Reap April 1: Siem Reap April 2: Siem Reap April 3: Siem Reap April 4: Siem Reap April 5: Departure
Thanks for any suggestions or help!

Hi there,
Yesterday in the Thailand section, 100% of the new threads were just about beach destinations 😕...
So here’s the counterattack in the form of this photo thread, dedicated solely to the countryside: the locals, their livestock, fields, farms, rice paddies, small rivers, and agricultural machinery. If you’ve got any pictures that fit these categories, feel free to add them!
Comments welcome.
For each photo, I’ll (or you can) indicate the area where it was taken.

🙂 Hi everyone!
Hope you're all doing well! It's been a while since I last traveled, but I'm finally heading out again soon!
For those familiar with SOUTHEAST ASIA, I'm planning to leave in mid-June (with the trip ending at the latest in November), and I don’t have a precise idea of exact places or itineraries yet. The thing is, this period is usually the rainy season...
Any advice? I was thinking of Malaysia or Indonesia, like Sulawesi, for example (all countries and islands in Southeast Asia interest me except Bali).
Any recommendations? I’m doing my research online, but if anyone here has the time and knowledge, I’d love to hear from you.
Thanks everyone, take care and stay happy! ❤️

Hi there,

Hi everyone,
My girlfriend and I booked our tickets with Saudia Airlines for a trip to Thailand this summer, from July 5th to August 3rd. Given the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, we’re keeping a close eye on the news.
I was wondering if anyone here is in the same situation as us?
• Have you heard anything about possible mass cancellations or if the airline is still maintaining its routes to Asia?
• Are there any travelers who’ve recently returned who could tell us if air corridors have been changed (longer flight times)?
The idea is to know what to expect so we can prepare as best as possible. Thanks for your replies! !
Hi everyone,
Thanks for all your contributions on the forum—they’ve really helped me plan my trip. There are four of us friends heading to Sulawesi for 20 days. Based on all your advice, I’ve put together the following itinerary:
July 30: Makassar – sightseeing July 31: Makassar – sightseeing + overnight bus to Rantepao August 1–7: Tana Toraja with a guide August 7: Tana Toraja to Tentena + visit Tentena August 8: Early departure with a private driver to Ampana, then ferry to the Togian Islands August 9–15: Togian Islands (2 different resorts) August 15: Depart Togian Islands for Luwuk August 16: Flight Luwuk to Makassar August 17: Rammang Rammang August 18: Stroll in Makassar, then return home
Overall, what do you think?
I also have a question about the connection between Tentena and the Togian Islands: Is it doable to leave early in the morning as planned and still be sure not to miss the ferry?
Thanks in advance for your feedback! :)

Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on a 30-day itinerary for May/June 2027.
10 days in eastern Java (Malang, Bromo, waterfalls, Meru Beriti Park, Banyuwangi, and Ijen), a short transit in Ubud for a few days, then Flores before heading back to Jakarta.
We’ll spend 15 days in Flores (the classic route: Moni, Bajawa, Riung, Ruteng, ending in Labuan Bajo).
I’d love some firsthand feedback on flights to Maumere or Ende from Bali Denpasar. I know there are no direct routes and that you have to connect through Labuan Bajo or Timor (I think), which isn’t an issue in itself.
But I’ve read here and there that flights to these destinations can be delayed—or worse, canceled—and that it’s better to fly in and out of Labuan Bajo, which isn’t exactly ideal...
Thanks for any tips or experiences you can share!
