Work Abroad

Although things are cheap in Thailand, things actually work. The infrastructure is good, the people are friendly and there are loads of expatriates living and working there. Few people speak English well, which can be a drawback but you can get by on around $500-800 a month and enjoy a good lifestyle year round. The heat is terrific but you can always work at night and sleep late.

Visas are a problem and you need to leave the country once a month to get your stay renewed. There are agencies who will do it for you but ask around for trusted ones.

Try Bangkok if you like a city vibe, Chiang Mai for something a bit quieter and there’s an easy life waiting down at the large collection of islands that draw so many travelers to Thailand.
