Exchange rate depends on the currency you are exchanging. You can use this link to determine what the rate is for YOUR currency (whatever it may be.) The rate changes every working day but usually not by much. Wait until you get to Thailand to change any money over to Thai baht to get the best rate. Bank money changers available at the airport 24 hours a day. Hotels and stores usually have a lower rate of exchange. http://bankexchangerates.daytodaydata.net/default.aspx Not everyone spends money the same way. Some tourists think "cheap" is only $50 or $100 a night for a hotel and other think "cheap" means something much lower. Work up a budget and decide how much per night you can afford to spend on your hotel and then ask for a hotel recommendation in that price range. Roughly Thailand should be less expensive than the country you come from excluding the cost of your plane tickets. So, decide how much would a month cost in your country for "cheap" hotels and other purchases and use that as a base. Thailand should be cheaper. http://www.tripadvisor.com/SearchForums?scope=2&ff=3686&geo=293915&q=how+much+for+one+month+in+Thailand&sub-search.x=0&sub-search.y=0&sub-search=Click+to+search+forums&returnTo=__2F__ http://www.tripadvisor.com/SearchForums?scope=2&ff=3686&geo=293915&q=how+much+money+for+one+month+in+bangkok&sub-search.x=0&sub-search.y=0&sub-search=Click+to+search+forums&returnTo=__2F__ http://www.tripadvisor.com/SearchForums?scope=2&ff=3686&geo=293915&q=+currency+exchange&sub-search.x=0&sub-search.y=0&sub-search=Click+to+search+forums&returnTo=__2F__ Visit a local library and check out some Travel Guides.

Food won’t be more than about £10 to 15 a day. Assume 200 Baht (£3) for breakfast and lunch if you want a single dish and some coffee and juice, and 500 baht (£7) for dinner, if you’re dining out in restaurants. You can always get super cheap food from street vendors , like Pad Thai for around 30 baht (50 pence!), and you can dine permanently on their delicious food if you want to be super budget conscious and don’t mind eating on the street. Similarly, there are lots of supermarkets where you can buy bread etc if you want to make your own meals, although it’ll be difficult to store anything unless you have a fridge. for more info, read : http://travelerguideandlifestyle.blogspot.com/2010/05/how-much-money-do-i-need-for-thailand.html

the very bare minimum about 300 baht per day, your accomadation can be as cheap as 150 baht. (maybe less) and if your just eating and sleeping then that would be fine. it depends on what you wanna do and how you wanna live
