Just came back from a month long solo trip to Thailand. Covered Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai and some more of the north + Bangkok, Pattaya and neighbouring areas.
Got flights super cheap around 15K return from Kolkata that too during Songkran. Stay was around 2.5k average per day. Chiang Mai was cheap, Bangkok slightly expensive. I used credit cards so got 30-50% value back in points.
Food per day can be done for around 500-600. For me it was 1k average since I ate whatever looked interesting irrespective of budget. Used grab bikes or bus/BTS for intra city travel generally around 50-150 per ride depending on distance.
The major expense was on alcohol and parties as I went out on 70% of the nights.
Loved Chiang Mai (will go back again and live longer even thinking of shifting their permanently on DTV), hated Pattaya (too intense NSFW scene), neutral about Bangkok (cool city but noisy crowded and April was too hot).
Chiang Mai to Bangkok flight was 4k.
If someone is conscious about the budget, 1 month can easily be done for 80K-1L including flights. I overstretched a bit but no regrets with the memories I created.
