Why do people move to Thailand?
When we asked people why foreigners move to Thailand, they responded...
"Thailand has a reputation among expats as being a safe and welcoming place to live. With a rich culture, beautiful beaches and delicious cuisine, it can provide a great quality of life. The cost of living is low and the year-round warm climate makes for a comfortable and relaxing lifestyle. Thailand also offers excellent healthcare and a variety of employment opportunities. Additionally, expats are also drawn to Thailand’s vibrant expat community and its numerous cultural attractions," remarked another expat in Thailand.
"Bangkok is thriving, exciting city of 9 million with a low cost of living and no cold weather! It is also a hub for Asia with inexpensive flights almost anywhere," said a member in Bangkok, Thailand.
