What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Living as an expat or digital nomad in Thailand can be incredibly rewarding. The country offers a warm and welcoming culture, as well as an abundance of delicious tropical fruits, vibrant markets and stunning beaches. Expats and digital nomads have access to a range of amenities such as high-speed internet, co-working hubs, a range of accommodation options, and opportunities to explore the diverse landscape. Thailand also has plenty of cultural attractions, from ancient temples to bustling nightlife. Expats and digital nomads are able to immerse themselves in the local culture, making new friends and discovering new experiences," remarked another expat who made the move to Thailand.
"The employed partner's life revolves around work and socializing. The accompanying partner's life revolves around social groups and volunteering. Bangkok is a hotel society..... most functions occur in hotels," explained one expat living in Bangkok, Thailand.
