1, get dressed

Thailand is located in the tropics and subtropics, and most of the country has a tropical monsoon climate, which is divided into three seasons: cool, rainy and hot. The temperature difference in Thailand is very small throughout the year. Even in the cool season, the monthly average temperature is not lower than 18 degrees Celsius. April is the hottest month, the temperature is generally between 33 and 38 degrees Celsius, and it is a little cold at night.

International students living in Thai universities need to bring their own bedding such as mosquito nets, towels and pillows. Bring your own electric fan, thermos, table lamp and other daily necessities, but the price in Thailand is not expensive, and you can also buy them locally. Full-lined tunic suits and suits are not applicable, and semi-lined suits are generally brought for major events; Short-sleeved shirts and dresses are more suitable, need to be worn more, and the colors should be diverse.

Step 2 prescribe diet

Thailand's diet is dominated by rice and vegetables.

In Thailand, you can eat delicious dishes from many other countries. Countless restaurants offer all kinds of possible Asian cooking styles. Chinese restaurants can be seen everywhere in Thailand, so don't worry about not eating home-cooked meals.

Step 3 transport

Thailand has four national railways: the northern line-from Bangkok to Chiang Mai, the eastern line-from Bangkok to Aranya Jutodo near Cambodia, the northeast line-from Bangkok to Kai Nuo, the border city of Laos, and the southern line-from Bangkok to the south of Malay Peninsula.

All counties are connected by highways, extending in all directions. It should be noted that taxis are often not charged by the meter, and the price needs to be negotiated in advance. There are many taxi drivers who know English. If you want to go a distance, you can rent a car, and the price needs to be negotiated, which is about 10-20 baht. Green bus: There are green buses in some major places. Some buses have the same number but different routes. You can check the bus route map or ask the hotel service staff to sit (3 baht short distance).

2. Guide to Studying in Thailand

First, streamline luggage.

Tourist flights will set strict requirements on the luggage that passengers can carry, especially when going abroad. Because it involves a long flight distance, the weight of luggage will be controlled more strictly. The check-in limit for ordinary flights is 40kg, and the luggage cannot exceed 30 inches.

Second, valuables

As with flying in China, passengers are advised to take valuables with them. For international students, these are mainly computers, mobile phones and other electrical appliances. These will be more expensive, so it is more beneficial for everyone to carry them with them.

Third, carry-on change.

You still need to bring a few hundred dollars in change in your pocket. You can directly change it into Thai baht and take it with you. You don't need to change it after you get off the plane. After all, the handling fee at the airport exchange point is relatively high, so it doesn't need too much. Just save it and there won't be too much expenditure.

Fourth, bring a pen.

You also need to fill out the disembarkation card on the plane. If you have your own pen, you can start charging it directly, and don't bother the flight attendant to prepare it for you. Moreover, when entering or leaving the country, you may need to fill out forms and fill in information. If you bring your own pen, you don't need to wait for others to use it, saving time.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) do a good job of getting started.

After getting off the plane, students need to go through a series of procedures. You must finish them before you leave the airport and enter this country to make sure that you haven't done anything wrong. After the formalities are completed, subsequent troubles can be avoided.

The main thing is to check and verify the luggage and information, and then contact the airport pick-up staff after confirming your identity. You can wait patiently and it won't take you too long.

Visa application for intransitive verbs

The validity period of the visa for new students studying in domestic classes is only 90 days, so you need to go to the immigration office as soon as possible after arrival to renew it, so as to ensure that you have legal status to live here and go directly to the immigration office with your visa, passport and admission certificate.

3. What should I pay attention to when studying in Thailand?

First of all, in life

Thailand has hot weather and strong solar radiation all year round. When studying in Thailand, you should pay attention to sun protection, and take some sun protection clothes and sunscreen when preparing your luggage. In terms of diet, Thai people like to eat sweet and spicy food, so almost all meals are sweet and spicy. They eat three meals a day, but they eat very little. If they are not used to the food here, they can cook in the dormitory by themselves. Dressing is usually short sleeves, shorts and sandals in Thailand. In order to prevent the air conditioner from being turned on too high, you should also bring a coat. Studying in Thailand requires wearing school uniforms and black shoes. Pay attention to the time difference. Thailand is one hour behind China. Remember to adjust it when you arrive in Thailand. Traffic in Thailand keeps to the left, which is completely opposite to that in China. Cross the street and watch the traffic lights.

Second, local customs.

When entering a temple in Thailand, don't wear shorts, dress neatly and take off your shoes. In case of monks, avoid contact and be polite to others; Say hello, put your hands together and don't touch other people's heads at will. The head is a sacred part in Thailand. You can't point to people or things with your feet. This is the dirtiest part in Thailand. Tipping is very common in Thailand. Don't tip with coins because in Thailand, coins are for beggars. Gambling is forbidden in Thailand, so is playing cards and mahjong. Don't touch the law

Third, in learning.

We must be patient when learning Thai. We see that Thai words are long and difficult to write, and there are many words with the same pronunciation. In Thailand, if you are caught cheating in the exam, it is very serious. The school attaches great importance to honesty. If you are caught cheating, you will postpone your graduation. The score of the final exam depends on your usual academic performance and attendance, which usually accounts for a large proportion. If you skip classes in Thailand, it will also affect your final exam results. In school, don't address the teacher directly, but the professor. Don't call the teacher by his first name. It's impolite. You can call the teacher's surname+professor.

Fourth, pay attention to safety.

When studying in Thailand, you must pay attention to personal safety, chat with people more, don't reveal too much personal information, don't go to remote places, and don't hitchhike.
