Realistic cost of living all these expat’s swear you need $2,000 minimum to live 🤨 Love the basic life It’s so simple and humble ❤️ God Bless you this was very encouraging I leave to Jomtien from USA on the 3rd under $1,000 is very possible SUBSCRIBED 🎥
@@bonnies6963 really because I had less than $1,000 this month due to school and wifi for a year and I really am enjoying life right now I come from a very poor lifestyle so noodles everyday is okay for me 😂❤️
@@bonnies6963not everyone lives the same or wants to, a budget is just that you live with in your mean, being in Thailand does not change that. Many live under $2000 a month, in reality girls and drinking make up most of that 2000
You seem very postive and happy with your decision to move to Chiang Mai. I've been living in Banglok a year and did visit chain mail it's a nice escape however I think the air is very bad at the start of the year, which I wouldn't like as I like to run outside. Did you visit any of the mountain areas? They are very nice, I enjoyed going to the temples and villages on a scooter.
Not bad, for les than $800 a month and you are not struggling, like other vloggers imply, that you are suffering if you don't have more than a $1000 a month!!@@DianHuang
As someone who has lived in Chiang Mai for 5 years I can say there are many cheaper options if you want to be within 20mins of the city. I pay 10k ($275US) for a 3 bed house and I bought my motorbike second hand for 13k ($360US) after my 1st year as I got fed up with songthaews (red taxi trucks) and grab fares. If you are planning on living here long term buy a motorbike rather than spend 2-3k per month, I got my return on the bike after 6 months and even with repairs and servicing it's still great value (btw here labor for repairs is very cheap example: replacing oil and failed tail light, $12US) If you don't drink, smoke and party you can get by quite nicely on about $750US per month, not including visas and any associated costs.
@@Rudy1150 thanks for the question. I bought it from Facebook, I don't know much about bikes (I bought a scooter Honda click) so I took a chance, had a quick test ride and bought it. Most bikes are cheap and reliable and if you take reasonable care of them should not cost you more than around $50 a year to keep them in good shape
Bro. I’ve been living in chiang mai for 4 years. Basically it can be done for 400$ a month. I just don’t go out.. and I don’t try to make money from locals ( who does that? everyone apparently. Don’t be everyone make Money online or save at least 5k. You can payoff rent for the year with 3k. You don’t need to do this visa run, just become a student, a fighter, or an entrepenuer. The law changes so fast there are new visa programs that even immigration agents are playing catch up. Find a local girlfriend/ boyfriend. Don’t live in Nimman. It’s basically like going to your home country, but you’re still in Thailand. Even if you don’t have proclivity. Don’t do 25k Baht a month.. Jesus STOP using foreign apps. They got hoses.. I had the exact same condo for 5-8k per month.. this girl is not doing it right. that is INSANELY EXPENSIVE.
Dian....you are Indonesian right ? I am Indonesian lived in chonburi for 8 years. Saya pernah ke Chiang mai 2 kali. Di Chiang mai banyak cafe yg view nya bagus banget....don't skip
Hello Dian, thery useful info, thank you thery much. You are a gorgeous girl, green eyes, i hope you got a friend, because you don`t i rejuvenate with 35 years, and come to Chiang Mai to conquer your heart ;-)
Thanks for the Video! I live in Saraphi, and while I do shop at Marko, I never knew they had a food service location where I could buy in bulk. Thanks so much and I'll check it out
Only 2000THB per month for bike rental? that's amazing. Last time I was there the minimum was 5000. Can you share details of where you got the bike? That'll be very useful for me in future trips. Great video.
@@DianHuangChiang rai has 1 very famous beautiful white temple . All the carving and paintings are carved by famous artists Chalermchai. Don't skip this temple. Absolutely beautiful
I personally do see myself living longterm in Chiang Mai one day. I think it's a perfect retirement place for the convenience, the nature as well as the cost of living. And thanks! glad you find it helpful
People live very well on 1000 us if you live in niman and fancy places full of tourist a guy I follow lives on 30 000 and he doesn’t go without anything all this 2000 US dollars is hyped up to much I think 40 000 or 45 000 is ample to live as a single person you can get good accommodation for 7000 thai baht
Avocados are so expensive there! 42Bhat for one? here in Zambia they are a quoter of that price, but Chicken and Internet is very cheap there, nice video! so Chiang Mai is not expensive but you? you are expensive! 😁😁😁
Great info 👍 Can you provide any additional information or local websites on how you obtain places to rent for 1-2-3 months periods Also any particular cell phone carrier Thanks
Hi, thanks for watching. The accommodation cost is per month 🥰 i recently stayed in Santhitham area and accommodation there is slightly more affordable than Nimman area
Excuse me, I have just watched a few of your video clips. So may I ask you for some personal information? What is your nationality? Where did you graduate? How many languages can you speak? How long do you plan to stay in Chiang Mai? You work as a digital nomad marketing strategist and outsource business consulting for online channels as a self-employed. You look gorgeous and charismatic woman. What are you doing in mainland China 🇨🇳? You are a kind of self-organizing in financial provision and smart allocation budgeting. You can easily manage multi-tasking skills at once by focusing on one task while keeping track of others spontaneously. Awesome commendable to gender equality. Where is your next destination for the remote workplace? I would recommend you roam around the southern part of Thailand during the first quarter to explore the exotic island overwhelmingly inclusive of the insanely spectacular scenery. Respectfully for your highly appreciated enjoying Chiang Mai.
Sawadee-krub... Dian semisal mau nomad ke Selatan dan plan vacation.. jgn masukin Koh Tao ke list destinasi... kesan sm Chiang-Mai itu daerah pegunungan dan byk org Isan.. bhs Isan lucu dan ga semua org Thai paham.. tp org Isan org Thai jg dan bisa bhs Thai jg... mereka serumpun sm org Lao (Laos).. take care.. hv fun.. enjoy Thai more ya...
If I go there single, I will more than likely remain single. Thailand has a serious drinking and promecuity problem. Expats passing Thai women around, and Thai women passing expats around. I think I will have a hell of a time there.

I know exactly where this condo is at 25k baht is Because of the airbnb. those same units are a lot more affordable if you were staying longer and did a regular 6 month or 12 month lease..
Hello Dian, I have been in Chiang Mai for a month now. I am currently paying week by week in a 3 star hotel which isn't bad but I would like to move into a unit similar to that of your one in the video with a laundry and kitchen. Where is that and how much is it per month -please.
hi dian thank you for all the information you give here so informative, i will go to chiang mai in june and i wanna know for transportation you rent a bike for a month is there any deposite or something for guarantee as well? because i did some research in chiang mai mostly if we want to rent a bike we should left our passpor as guarantee is it true? i kinda unconvinced for that

@@samsan4644 Avacados in the U.S. right now are about 90 cents each, but I like the idea of New Zealand. I will pack my 40 ft shipping container and wait anxiously for it to arrive at the port there, while I enjoy my Avacados 😎😎

hello Dian, can you recommend the motorbike rental pls?
I believe Chiang Rai is a little cheaper than Chiang Mai, especially accommodation. Yes it’s much smaller, but has many cool places to see!
Heard about that too. Would love to go explore Chiang rai, since its so close from here

Should be min cost or max cost.
max cost - how much can you afford because Thai accommodates billionaires. Minimum cost - start at 3000thb per month for a non airconditioned studio apartment and 3000thb per month for food
What do you need to rent a motorbike ? do you need a licence or passport? how do you make monthly payments? do you wire them each month or have to go back to the rental store?
You just need to show them your passport. Payment wise, you can pay with cash or wire them
