Udon has some traffic problems too, but they are minimal, the air is much better here, the only thing I'm missing is theate...

monthly visa-run limit (30-days stamp)
I can not understand why you not has appiled for a 90 days visa in your home country, it could save you for a lot of trouble, and it would probably be much more cheaper than visa runs. You must have had an idea how long time you would spend here in Thailand.
