For anyone visiting Pattaya/Bangkok for the first time, I recommend learning a few basic Thai phrases like 'hello' (sawasdee) and 'thank you' (khob khun krub/ka). Locals appreciate it when you make an effort to speak their language, even if it's just a few words. It helps create a friendly atmosphere and enhances your cultural experience.
