What is life like as an expat in your area?

Answer this Question

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 Krabi is often described as relaxed and laid-back, with a slower pace of life compared to the bustling cities. The natural beauty of the area, with its stunning beaches, clear waters and lush jungles, provides a tranquil setting for work and leisure. The cost of living is relatively low, making it an attractive destination for those looking to stretch their budget further. Expats and digital nomads can enjoy a variety of local and international cuisines, with a wide range of restaurants and street food stalls available. The local people are generally friendly and welcoming, and while English is not widely spoken outside of tourist areas, it's possible to get by with basic Thai phrases. The internet connection in Krabi is generally reliable, making it suitable for remote work. There are also several coworking spaces available for those who prefer a more structured work environment. In terms of leisure activities, there's plenty to do in Krabi. From rock climbing and scuba diving to exploring local markets and temples, there's something for everyone. The expat community is also quite active, with regular meetups and events providing opportunities to socialize and network. However, it's worth noting that the healthcare facilities in Krabi are not as advanced as in larger cities like Bangkok. Expats and digital nomads are advised to have comprehensive health insurance to cover any potential medical costs. Overall, life in Krabi offers a unique blend of natural beauty, cultural experiences, and a relaxed lifestyle, making it a popular choice among expats and digital nomads," commented one expat who made the move to Krabi, Thailand.
