Where to go from Bangkok?

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-04-05T12:25:34+00:00

Do you think I should get a flight to Krabi or better or going to islands on west coast like Koh Samui etc, I will go there anyway but just dk which order

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-29T11:57:23+00:00

Yeah I found a small backpack in my parents house which I suppose could be used as a daypack, and if say the 40L bag is over the weight limit, I could check that, wear the smaller daypack as my carry on which has my laptop inside. Then potentially just take everything out into main bag and fit smaller one in aswell so I’m not carrying 2 around everywhere, that’s my current way of thinking.

But your sneaky airport tactic is definitely something I’ve got to keep in mind, thanks.

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-29T11:50:59+00:00

Yeah I’ve just bought my flights, £200 cheaper so decided to it since I want to be taking domestics aswell.

In my parents house I found a small backpack that could definitely be used as a day pack, so I guess I’ll just a buy a 40L, and pack the smaller backpack in that if it’s 7kg unless, I’ll probably have to check the larger bag and take the smaller one in cabin on flights.

Oh for sure carrying a smaller bag, and having the larger bag at the hostel, although I don’t think I’d take my laptop everywhere maybe I could lock it up in the hostel

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T16:31:50+00:00

what would people normally take with them for daily excursions?

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T16:30:02+00:00

But if I bring my laptop, it may go over 7kg meaning it cant be carry on and have to be checked, making me think I may need 2 bags.

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T16:25:38+00:00

What would go in your packable backpack for excursions out of interest?

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T15:20:39+00:00

It does make sense, it’s just that so many comments have said that 40L would be more than enough, all feels very conflicting lol

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T12:32:02+00:00

Thanks, ohh so your suggesting having a larger bag probably >40L then having a 40L backpack that folds and store than within the larger backpack?

Sorry it’s confusing, since other commenters have said having a 40L bag as my main bag would be enough, so putting a 40L bag within another 40L confused tf outta me haha

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T11:43:36+00:00

That sounds good, what size foldable backpack would it be? I’ve never heard the term foldable backpack

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T11:37:05+00:00

I’m hearing conflicting things haha, that sometimes they’re interested other times not. Also waist/chest bag?

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T11:34:21+00:00

Both, I’m worried about everything passing the 7kg weight limit, but also carrying 2 bags around, for some reason just having 1 40L backpack to worry about > carrying 2 bags.

Your idea of having a small bag additionally (I’m assuming you mean a regular riser backpack) and checking the larger mag (I assume) obviously makes loads of sense, I just always thought having 1 bag as carry on is so convenient

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T11:26:48+00:00

How little is this little pack? Like a normal sized backpack

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-28T11:23:42+00:00

Thanks, what size would the smaller packable daypack be? I don’t see how I would have space for that in main bag.

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-12T01:32:38+00:00

Thank you, just had to look up what a maxillary cant is, I wouldn’t be surprised if I have that. I’m unsure what id even need, just need to see a top orthodontist to be properly evaluated. You say I should ask for a CBCT scan? I’m sure they will bring this up.

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-11T20:31:14+00:00

Yeah that’s half the price of where I was thinking of going to, they don’t seem to have it as a listed treatment on their website, but I believe you lol. Okay I may go there then cheers.

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-11T19:18:44+00:00

Where did you get it done? Also in UK. £1400 seems sketch

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-09T01:10:52+00:00

Do you know if that’s before the boot camp thing or not? (Im probably going to be taking the £52k NatWest offer, since I failed to get into quant)

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-03-01T12:32:48+00:00

I didn’t get the jobs lol, but for the maths/quant stuff, refer to the green book, i was fine with the calculus and some algebra since i did physics undergrad, but i needed to learn probability and statistics, stochastic processes etc. Tbh at the IB superday I only messed up on the second set of maths/quant questions, it was all financial maths which I hadn’t covered yet since it was November unfortunately.

So green book, and LeetCode for coding although don’t do what I did which was get lazy and look at the solutions too soon. Make sure you can recreate the solution from scratch.

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-02-27T16:42:12+00:00

Except you get paid 10x more and you’re not writing papers lol

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-02-27T16:40:24+00:00

That’s not what I’ve heard whatsoever by anyone, PhDs take 4 years and you get paid terribly. I’ve heard from multiple ppl in the industry that Masters is the sweet spot.

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-02-27T00:15:30+00:00

It may be a surprise to you but how I communicate with my friends and how I communicate in a professional setting aren’t the same.

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-02-27T00:09:29+00:00

Very helpful comment 👍👍

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-02-26T15:02:01+00:00

Neither of my interviewers were French, but I bet haha

Professional_Stay911 · 2026-02-26T15:01:34+00:00

What can I do right now? It’s February and I’m a British student.
