If you come to Hua Hin, maybe we can all sit together over this topic. I have two daughters and might be interested in international school education for them. I'm also an educator, with M.Ed although I haven't taught for years.

Every Thursday, starting at 9 p.m. there's a Nordic Ballroom dance night at Grand Sport, in front of the Grand Hotel. Mainly Finnish and Swedish people attend it at the moment but everybody is welcome. You can take your own music there as well, if there's a special kind of dance you like to do.

Guess wrote I agree that none of them have anything to offer that we can not get already in Hua Hin. It's very difficult to get good quality beef here in HH. Hopefully the new establishment will change this. At the moment I "import" all my beef from Bangkok. In Hua Hin they end up in the m...

What I've been more worried is the similarity between the 20 Baht and 1,000 Baht notes. I sometimes wonder in the mornings how I've possible spend that much money the previous night. The only thing that comes to my mind is that I've given the motorbike taxi the 1K note instead of the 20. :cuss:

HH is about 250 km from the airport and about 220 from downtown Bangkok. Taxis cost about 2,000 baht one way. Since you coming in here for the first time, take a taxi. Trains are slow and most of them will leave in the afternoon or early evening. Taxi is also a good option if you don't have a hotel ...

One of the worst areas in downtown is the intersection leading to the public beach (it passes Sofitel). Sofitel itself shouldn't have big problems as it's on higher ground. It may be difficult to move around, though, if there's a lot of water in that particular intersection.

Happened to me quite often in China. I was in my late 20's and not married. The Chinese just couldn't understand that. In the end I started telling them that I was married. It was easier that way.

Mind you, I was once a manager in a bar called Texas Lone Staar (yes, with two a's) in Bangkok and we had a darts team called Lone Star Rangers but actually I meant Rangers FC. :P

There are plenty of places renting motorbikes in Hua Hin. Daily rents start from 150/180. For three months you should be able to negotiate the price to 3000-4000 baht per month.
For fishing look for the link to Mermaid Cruises at our sponsors list.
