I would definitely recommend going. It's also cheap in Thailand and dope as fuck. I spent about $2500 for the whole trip. And that included the $1100 for the round trip flight there, about $400 for flights within Thailand, and maybe $600 on hotels. But we splurged on the hotel for our Koh Samui leg. But I spoke with a handful of people who were traveling all SE Asia (Cambodia, Thailand & Vietnam), and they all said that for as beautiful as Cambodia was, there was still a lot of anti american propaganda, and lots of the country was still a disaster. Phnom Penh in particular. But I do hope to revisit with more time to explore other countries in the area. We're planning on doing India next year.
We almost did. It was at the bottom of our to-do list while we were in Chiang Mai, but it just didn't end up happening.
Where did you go in Thailand? We skipped Phuket cause we were told it was a dirty tourist city, and if we stayed in Bangkok, we really didn't need to stay in Phuket too. So we opted for Koh Samui for the last leg, and it was amazing there. I think I'd like to spend more time in Northern Thailand if I went again.

I've been a few times, it's close to Australia so you can go for like $500 return if you catch a deal. I've been to bangkok, chiang mai, koh samui, koh phangan (you missed the full moon party which is dope), phuket (yes, koh samui is 10x better and I prob wouldn't go back to phuket), pattaya. I'd like to see more of the north and center too but once you hit the beach it's hard to leave.
