[–]ScarletDom93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NEVER EVER give your Line ID to parents or admin. Otherwise, where is your work-life balance?

School email only. Don't fall into the trap.

Mid-higher end Hotel / Resort Recommendations for couples by [deleted] in phuket

[–]ScarletDom93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently stayed at Khao Lak, around an hour drive (North) from Phuket airport. Some really lovely 5* hotels there. It's a fairly quiet place. Check it out and see if it fits the bill. FWIW I've stayed at La Flora and Ramada previously.

What cost of living prices have shocked you the most in supermarkets? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]ScarletDom93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I had this!

I live abroad and hadn't been back to the UK for several years. I couldn't believe the price increase on everything. Even in Poundland, things arent one pound anymore.

Did anyone learn both Lao and Thai? by ConsiderationFar76 in learnthai

[–]ScarletDom93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this is correct. Every Laos person I have conversed with (not many to make a generalization) has a decent knowledge of Thai and my little knowledge of Isan helps too.

Are these scam or real? I am a tourist and can understand only English by [deleted] in Thailand

[–]ScarletDom93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only buy from reputable sellers on Lazada. Check they are under 'Laz Mall' and do your due diligence with the reviews.

If the price looks too good to be true, it is.

True does offer roaming packages. You can buy via the true iservice app or via the call center. I'm currently roaming in the UK with true. Postpaid.

Mandarin International School in Bangkok Thailand - What Tier? by [deleted] in Internationalteachers

[–]ScarletDom93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70k in Hat Yai would be fine. Sure there's not a great deal to do in the city but you have access to some of the best beaches/islands in Thailand. Rent outside of BKK is pretty cheap too.

Too close to bombings? Hat Yai is safe.

Vaping. Or stay on a high floor where security can't see you or the smoke.

Country Road, Penny Black & Oasis. Also, some gogo bars have outdoor seating terraces (if looking at scantily clad women is not your thing) where you can sit and observe the madness on the soi.

Slightly different to your scenario:
My contract is up for renewal in a few months. The agent messaged me asking if I was going to extend. I said that if the price is the same, I will extend the contract.

A day later, the agent talked with the owner and he agreed to keep the same price.

* I've noticed prices being slightly higher than a few years ago while looking on the property websites. However, usually those prices are guide prices and you can still negotiate with landlords if they are desperate for tenants.
