Is August a good time to visit Thailand for good weather?

Darren *******

It will most likely rain at some point but it's not going to be monsoon style rain. It might rain for an hour or so then the sun will be back out. Likewise there will be days where there's no rain. Very unlikely that you'll have an entire day washed out.

Can I exit and re-enter Thailand on a student visa, extend it for years, and apply for a Schengen visa from there?

Darren *******

1) re-entry permit

2) if at university yes, if doing non-university course then it's much harder and unlikely

3) yes but you need to be attending class in Thailand or your student visa will be cancelled by the institution. Unless you have a dodgy visa of course...
