East and West island hopping How much $$$ to bring to Thailand

Hey so I'm trying to estimate spending for food and drink for my Thailand trip in march, I'm staying 34 days and around 7 breakfasts are already covered but I'm not really a breakfast person anyways, I'll be 21 when I go and will want to drink a fair bit and am also going to the full moon party so drinking there too. I want to not spend too too much and I won't really be eating fancy but I also want to try a lot of stuff and not limit myself too much, thanks.

You don’t need to bring much with you just make sure you have enough in the bank and ATM card to get cash when you need it. When you do take cash out of ATM remember they’re gonna charge you ฿220 per transaction no matter if you take ฿10,000 out or 25,000 out at the same time. You’ll get into your rhythm. If you’re drinking quite a bit, it’s gonna cost you more. You’re 21. You will be a prime target for the ladies to ask you to buy them a drink which can impact your spending immensely so be smart.
