Hi traveler, as the person never been go outside Malaysia (exception Singapore 1 time) so i might want to go Bangkok by September by land (bus/train) backpack, what things i should do before entering Thailand as complete newbie?

Passport (obviously)
Insurance?
For paying stuff what card/app should i have? (TnG?/BigPay/Wise/suggestion)
Should i convert cash early before entering Thailand?
Should i book early the train to go Bangkok?
Is there other things i should consider?

Another notes that i will start from KL, so perhaps i took bus or train to Padang Besar i guess.
- and want to go Bangkok by land the cheapest way possible.
- I heard about the train from Hat Yai have direct to Bangkok. Anyone have this info

sorry for long post...
