Just a word on prices - if you are in Bangkok 2k should get you everything you need for ST, sometimes I tip 200, lots of time not. LT, sorry 5k is way too much would suggest 3,500 as a ceiling. With massage parlours yes some will charge you 2,500 up to 4k if you let them. Walk in to places and get 500/800 massage then negotiate 1000 for finish. The more you go the more you learn.
Also the way I cost a trip is to add airfare & accom & food & mongering & other expenses and divide by number of days. Its eye opening what this daily rate would give you if you spent it here but then the quality and quantity and sheer fun is not like LOS.
