Calling all expats! 🌏💼 Share your top picks and experiences in Thailand. Let's create a global community guide to the best expat-friendly places. Where has Thailand stolen your heart?
Phuket for snorkeling, Chaing Mai for night markets. I don't know if Bangkok is still terribly polluted like it was in early 2000s.
Thank you for the video. One thing that you didn't mention was the safety. I'm doing research on retiring overseas and my top priority is safety.
Depends on you and your abilities, no one is going to hold your hand to lead you thru life.
@robertcarpenter7486 huh? Your reply is totally out of pocket man. Check yourself.
Been here 3 years and have been around, never saw any problems. Although you do see some foriengers way to drunk
@@patric5076 yeah you are right maybe my state of mind at the moment but I did have a point
@@user-ps4fs6ts4t
They'd save money and time if they would just stay home. You can get drunk and stupid anywhere. Why go halfway around the world to something right at home.
Great video on Thailand's expat life! 🇹🇭 Each place has its unique charm. 🌟 Remember, it's about new experiences, not just places. 🌍✈@TerraVista1 #TerraVista
SSSSSHHHHHH ! i live in the boony's away from all polluted citys & farang wise cash hunters BYYEEEEE 😜
Chiang Mai is the best 🇹🇭
Not during the Smokey season 💨🔥
I was just there,
95 Fahrenheit several days in a row in May. It’s a good town tho, just climate wise it may be more moderate than southern Thailand
But you’re also land locked, and still relatively warm.
…except March - May.
Bring your gas mask.
This is for a couple if I understand correctly right? What about a 65 years old retiree with a monthly budget of $1200 usd? Can I pull it off with this ca$h.
Mexico
Mexico 6 mos. at a time, drive out, come back, etc.
Yes absolutely, just not so much in the big tourist hot spots. Any of the quieter more relaxed areas you would still live nicely
Yeah, but very spartan living.
You should mention that as of Jan 1 2024, Thailand will now tax foreign income up to 35%.
Not true. It will be on Thais making money abroad.
Yes, for those who stay for more than 6mo. This is similar to Spain.
@@HomeBaseHB However, Spain has a top tax bracket of 46% and an annual wealth tax up to 2.8% on all worldwide holdings in cash, property and anything similar in value.
THATS IF U MAKE YOUR MONEY THERE
@@topshelfbullys7889 Incorrect. Both countries tax your worldwide income, regardless of the income location.
Hi scott from New Zealand would 8million baht and pension give me comfortable life living in Thailand bang saray thank you from Scott
Oh no! Impossible. Try Antarctica it’s chilled there and cheap.
@@robertcarpenter7486 don't b jealous
@@scottgeen3062 your comment was not serious, of course most people including myself would love to have 8,000,000 baht. Surely you know that.
Why would you even post such a silly comment.
@@robertcarpenter7486 hi Robert was not sure that was enough to survive thank you for your advice from Scott new Zealand
@@robertcarpenter7486 8.000.000 is not that much if you expect to live another 25-35 years.
At the moment these days and especially in Phuket the Farangs have just about worn out their welcome .
Seems like western forangs have worn out their welcome in many places 😢 Why can't people be more respectful when living in other countries...sigh!
For a channel with 'International' in its name, its puzzling, and frustrating, that you would list temperatures in only Ferenheight, especially since America is the only country on the planet that uses that illogical system. Not very 'International' to not include celcius... 🤦♂️🙄
Don't speak the language
It doesn't matter.
Haha.
Right. Maybe Doesn’t matter for a vacation. Maybe matter if you’re looking to spend 20-30 years there, no?
@@segarnyagold1014 You should be able to learn enough of the language in a few years. Or if you have enough money stay within expat areas/communities.
@@gameplayfirst6548 I just spent 3 weeks there, various places. An Americans experience in Thailand will be different than Philippines(for example) because of English, culture, and Tagalog is a lot easier to learn than Thai. But from what I’ve seen American men aren’t likely to become best buds with ur average Thai or Filipino, independent of language competency.
