TRAVEL TOOLS
We couldn’t do without these following resources while living in and traveling around Thailand.
Agoda
Agoda is a great resource for booking hotels, guesthouses, and hostels in Thailand. A free membership also allows you to earn points from your bookings, which can be later applied for a discounted rate on your next room.
World Nomads
Excellent traveler’s insurance that goes beyond covering getting sick. Lost luggage, accidents, or canceled flights, World Nomads Insurance is perfect for the long-term traveler.
GrabTaxi
Use Thailand’s ride-share app for safe, convenient travel around cities such as Bangkok, Phuket, Pattaya, Udon Thani, Chiang Mai, and more. New users can get up to 150 THB off your first ride using the code GRABTIETOTHAI.
Pure VPN
Have you ever tried streaming Netflix in Thailand? Well, you can’t unless you have a VPN. Traveling abroad can often lead to online content restriction such as this. Browse the internet securely and anonymously.
Mister Prakan
This tool is great to compare health and travel insurance plans for Thailand. There are many out there with varying degrees of coverage, but Mister Prakan provides you with a broad overlook of available policies and makes the information easy to understand.
SEE TEFL
This effective teaching training course offered by SEE TEFL prepares you for teaching English as a foreign language. This four-week course also offers paid internship opportunities and assists graduates with job placement.
Lazada
Don’t want to pay international shipping fees for your online purchases? Lazada.co.th opens the world to online shopping in Thailand. Gone are the days of asking visiting friends or family to smuggle goodies in their luggage.
Trail Wallet
We keep track of our budget using this app, and have been for two years. It keeps track of our expenses, adjusts to local currency, has daily and monthly spending goals, unlimited categories, and exporting options.
Wongnai
Forget TripAdvisor or Yelp while in Thailand. For authentic Thai restaurant reviews written up by local Thai clientele, use this site. Reviews, pictures, and accurate locations of everything from five star restaurants to even street stalls!
NOTE: This is a Thai site and requires Google translation

A2 Hosting
Having a good hosting platform is essential for your site. A2 Hosting is great if you’re more established and will give you the disk space and bandwidth you need for a well functioning site.
