What would you like to know? If you are coming to work you will need a non-immigrant "B" visa, if you just come and get a visa exemption on arrival in Bangkok it will make it very difficult for you to stay in Thailand and you will not be eligible for a work permit.

advice: go on a tour around the region. hike, trail bike, car trip, 4WD or whatever. understand and appreciate the beauty of the surrounding areas. it is diverse. i have been to chiang mai three times and each time it gets better. we hooked up with [moderated: no ads in your very first messages] and did a trail bike tour of the region over a week. fantastic. if biking is not for you, do a 4WD tour. at least then you will have a good appreciation of the surrounding country side and see great places for you to do weekenders in whilst in CM. You'll love the food, bars etc. by the river too. Chiang Mai rocks!
