QUOTE(Stuart47 @ Mar 20 2015, 10:03 AM) May I know I'm bringing my 45 litre + 10 backpack to bangkok only. But back that time I would bought lots of things back. Can I use carton box put all things inside and check in as baggage? I bought the 20kg baggage thou. Pls advice and where can I find those carton box? Do I need to seal it? Or just use string tie on the box? Yes, I have seen many checked in carton boxes. Just ask from any of the shops whether they have any extra boxes. Better seal properly using tape or cling wrap.

Do I need to change my MYR to baht in malaysia first or change in bangkok? Any recommended money changer in bangkok like those mall areas? Prefer with worth value one.
Basically I'm staying bai yoke hotel. Rch around evening 6pm. What can I do on that day evening? Any great good street food nearby and nightlife recommend? Prefer no sex but want massage cheap and bone Kruk Kruk one. Any place can see pretty girls and having a drink solo? No sex pls!

You will be at risk if they ask you to weight both bag. If it exceed 7kg...they will ask you to check in the other one. Its will cst you a bomb. As for carton box you can go the the postal service counter at thedeparture hall in donmueng airport .

If the taxi willing to send you there...Im sure he will charge you both way fee. Its better you go there by van, taxi wont save you lots of time.

Example an average meal u spend rm5...chicken rice or noodle rm5-6 sightseeing...depend where youre going and. Mode of transportation.

Cuz I was thinking max RM15 per meal, that makes about RM30 per day for food and the remaining RM30 for transport and sight seeing.

If you feel rm60 a day is good enough for you then stick to your plan. Your money your call.

Flying to Bangkok tomorrow morning. Read a few guides in this thread on tourist scams.
In general, are the money changer rates for RM to Baht acceptable or really steep?
