We asked expats and digital nomads what they appreciate the most about the local culture in Bangkok. They wrote...

"Expats in Bangkok appreciate the city's vibrant culture, which is a mix of traditional Thai and modern influences. They enjoy the city's rich history, which is evident in its many temples, monuments, and other landmarks. They also appreciate the friendly and welcoming nature of the locals, who are always willing to help out visitors. Additionally, expats enjoy the city's delicious cuisine, which is a mix of Thai, Chinese, and other Asian flavors. Finally, expats appreciate the city's vibrant nightlife, which offers a variety of bars, clubs, and other entertainment venues," said another expat in Bangkok, Thailand.

"I've learned to go with the flow (Mai Penh Rai). I don't get upset much, pretty even keeled. After years running NGO's I left most of my stress at the door of my last job. I even lived through a TRUE (internet and telephone) mess, and they were very patient with me. In the US they called me the hammer, now I am the pussycat," wrote a member who made the move to Bangkok, Thailand.
