EXPAT LIFE in 'Small Town' THAILAND － peaceful and affordable

Описание: This video shows my typical routine in small town Thailand — the local market and affordable food prices, home-grown sweet potatoes, a stop at the local fire station, and watching the local team play football. #expatlife #thailand #suratthani www.theborderlessoffice.com

KEY MOMENTS

00:00 - 01:40 Intro
01:41 - 03:22 Sweet potato and fresh fruit
03:24 - 07:49 Fire station tour
07:52 - 09:22 Chicken Biryani
10:15 - 12:15 The local mall: BYD, new gym, Starbucks, movie theatre
12:30 - 14:30 Small towns around Thailand comparison
14:52 - 15:12 Proximity to islands
15:38 - 20:40 local market and delicious food
20:42 - 23:26 local soccer match

Join me as I explore daily life in a smaller Thai town, where I now split my time with Bangkok.

Experience authentic Thai culture through local markets where a family has made pad Thai for 80 years and vendors sell fresh skewers for just 20 baht. See why small towns in Thailand offer better value—apartments for $300/month, coffee for 75 baht, and authentic cuisine without tourist inflation.

I'll share why I prefer this setting: cleaner air, friendly locals, and a perfect base for island hopping to Koh Samui and Koh Phangan. Discover seven similar towns with comparable amenities, marked for air quality during the burning season.

The video concludes at a local football match, showcasing community spirit and the genuine Thai experience that drew me here in the first place.
