I see there are experts on Thailand here, advise what you can take with you on a trip? Except banal things
Well, for example: is it worth stocking up on medicines before leaving, or are they available there without a prescription? Is it possible to pay by card in stores everywhere in cities? Do you need a license to drive a bike?

rights are needed. As far as I remember, you can't rent without a license.
You can pay with cards, if you take cash, take large bills
We took our medicines with us. there were pharmacies, but the letters are non-Russian)))

It is better to take medicines with you, proven and familiar.
Rights are needed.
You can pay by card, except in small souvenir shops you need cash

About medicines: if you constantly take some drugs, it is better to take them with you, chronic diseases are not the situation when you want to run around pharmacies in search of the right drug. If there are no special health problems, then everything can be bought on the spot in resort places. Thailand will not require a prescription for antibiotics, painkillers or antipyretics.
Shops, hotels and cafe-restaurants mostly accept cards. In the markets and in small shops cash.
A bike license is needed, but a scooter will be rented without them. Most tourists drive without a license, but at their own peril and risk, because at any moment they can be stopped by local traffic police. And, unfortunately, I don’t even know the measure of punishment. Maybe a fine, maybe worse.

Yes, it seems, everything is there, you don’t need to take anything special :)))
Rights are needed.
Medications are only permanent medications prescribed by your doctor so as not to run around pharmacies there and waste time. In the event of a sudden need in Thailand, you can buy any medicine or get them in a bag in a hospital in case of an insured event. By the way, insurance! This is what a tourist must have. Good, correct - no deductible and decent coverage. Do not rely on a travel agent in this matter, read the conditions of the one in the package and, if something does not fit (and usually package insurance is very frail), buy it yourself from the insurance company.
Be sure to take cash. Around the third day, you will realize that the best food in Thailand is street food, and they don’t take cards there. Carts with fruits and coconuts on every corner also do not accept cards :) Busik and massage sellers on the beach too.
