If you are one of the millions who work from home, you have an unprecedented level of freedom and independence that includes the ability to live anywhere in the world. If you live in Northern Europe or the US, you won’t need reminding about the sky-high cost of living and that is one of the major reasons why expats decide to relocate to a developing country.
Here are some of the reasons why you should consider relocating to sunny Thailand.
- Great Internet – Not only does Thailand have fantastic Broadband Internet, the service is very affordable; for $20 a month, you can have an unlimited SIM package for your smartphone and you can hotspot to your laptop wherever you happen to be in Thailand. There are several major ISPs that service Thailand; DTAC, True, BBB and AIS all offer a range of Internet & phone packages, all at very affordable prices.
- Tropical Paradise – Let’s face it, nothing compares to kicking back on a tropical beach in luxury accommodation and if you choose a long-term package at a luxury sea view hotel in Phuket, you can live the life of a millionaire every day of the year. There is a range of accommodation in tourist areas, ranging from renting a single room to a poolside villa; we recommend striking up a long-term deal with a beach hotel, where you can enjoy a serviced suite and all the amenities are at your fingertips.
- Low Cost of Living – Work out how much you spend in a month in your home country, then do some online research about costs in Thailand and you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Everything from accommodation to food is cheap when compared with European prices and the standard of living that you will enjoy in Thailand will be very high if you spend the same amount of money. Prices are rising all over the world, as inflation gets a grip on the economy, which is even more reason to relocate to a developing country like Thailand.

- Meet Like-Minded People – Many digital nomads live in Thailand and whether in Bangkok, Chiang Mai or Phuket in the south, there is co-working space where you can connect with other entrepreneurs. This is great for networking and by sharing costs, your workplace won’t cost you much. If you are worrying that you’ll be lonely as you don’t speak Thai, there are many western expats who are living the dream life in tropical Thailand and you are sure to make some great connections. If you’re single, you will meet a lot of dynamic people and who knows? You might find your soulmate.
