Im tossing between jobs in Taiwan and Thailand. Also Im woundering what clothing and personal belongins to bring over, as well as cost...what hiden cost will I be looking at? Once I arrive in my location, will I have airport fee's, transportation fee's??? how much should be set with?

I know that I should leave some stuff at home, but how much of my own clothes, persaonal belongines do I bring? such as toiletry, CD's, DVD's, VHS? Will my VHS work? my DVD's should work?. And clothes, do I leave my winter stuff behind?

Sorry I did answer this on Friday, but someone seems to have deleted i?

Let's try again!

Okay, it depends on how you want to bring you belongings over. Do you mean shipping them over or bringing them in by hand (i.e. in your suitcase) if it's the former, yes there will (generally) be hidden costs (tax etc.) if the latter you should be fine!

Yes, unless you plan on teaching up north (where it can get a bit chilly) you should leave you winter clothes at home.

I'm not sure about the VHS recorder as Americans use NSTC and Thailand uses PAL. To be honest tapes aren't very popular here, most people use VCD's and DVD's nowadays! I've got a couple of video players that I bought here and they only cost 4-5,000 Baht!

I hope this helps?

Buddhist lifestyle attaches little importance to objects, especially owned ones. The less you have the more free you are, to learn, to move, to think. The first time I went there I threw away more stuff than I brought back.
