Thailand will always have a special place in my heart, as the first country I backpacked across. There are so many places to see and so many things to do. Not to mention, the food is phenomenal! Although I spent quite a while there, I would gladly come back and explore more of it. The country is an amazing place to start out, for anyone looking to explore the region of Southeast Asia.
Budget (2014): Most of Thailand is very affordable. As long as you stick mostly to street food, stay in budget hostels, and use public transport $20 per day is entirely possible, with $25 being perfectly adequate. The only exception is the south of the country. Many islands there are very expensive, though those tend to be the ones most unbearably crowded with tourists.
