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...
"Life for expats and digital nomads in Phuket is generally quite pleasant. The cost of living is relatively low, and the climate is warm and sunny year-round. The city is well-connected, with plenty of transportation options, and the locals are friendly and welcoming. There are plenty of activities to enjoy, from beach days to exploring the local culture. The food is delicious and varied, and there are plenty of places to work remotely. All in all, Phuket is an ideal destination for expats and digital nomads looking for a relaxed and enjoyable lifestyle," wrote a member who made the move to Phuket, Thailand.
