Great topic. I intend on going there in January. Probably January 2017 though, doh.
From friends' experience - don't carry valuables in suitcase when traveling by bus, as you will be robbed.
And a few Thai friends advised that I should go North for nature/history attractions and also visit neighboring countries (as suggested in this topic).
I've an idea of taking a flights to Singapore and Hong Kong for a couple of nights each (local flights are cheap), since I'd be in the region already. This would offset the lack of visit to the Thai islands, that don't interest me too much.
