Hi Michael – greetings from Northern Kyrgyzstan at the moment. Excellent, I always miss Thailand when I’m not there. When will you be in the Kingdom? Be nice to meetup if possible – I might be there after you are, I’ll be in Thailand again from sometime in December through February. Emirates is a very nice airline. I was just watching a video of the new Sky Apartments on Etihad. Some of these Middle Eastern based airlines sure have the wow factor!

Thanks for your response and all the information. Just a few days ago we decided on returning to Asia and Bangkok. So, it’s another down to the wire scramble to find a home base (apartment) in Bangkok, maybe for 1 month. Then, move on to Chiang Mae for 2 months. While we are in Bangkok we’ll most likely search for an apartment in Chiang Mae. We have a few more days in Zagreb to do it before shoving off to Manhattan. Thankfully, we already purchased discounted flight tickets from JFK to BKK on Emirates Airelines.

I’ve been to Tokyo a number of times, always quick jaunts into the city so unfort don’t have any neighborhood suggestions – certainly the most expensive of the three cities.

Many expats in Bangkok either live in Silom area (more upscale) and can be quieter at night – or Sukhumvit (which is another major blvd with apartments up and down its length on small sois or streets located off its reaches. Sukhumvit perhaps would be a bit cheaper – as you get farther away from say the low Sukhumvit Soi numbers you will find things get cheaper – so Sukhumvit Soi 60 for example would be a cheaper area then say Sukhumvit Soi 5 (which is a major nightlife area, busy etc). My friend Zoe Goetz is an expat in Bangkok usually for a few months of the year – you should be able to contact her via one of her social media outlets here: http://www.davestravelcorner.com/author/zoe-goetz/ – I know she usually stays somewhere off of Sukhumvit. Hope this helps.

We are planning 3 trips – – (Tokyo, Buenos Aires or Bangkok) leaving Manhattan from JFK on October 1, 2014. We’ll be doing a search for fully furnished rented apartments not hotels. Regarding Bangkok, do you have recommendation for a good and safe neighborhood where we can rent an apartment for 1 or 2 months? Thanks, M
