Dear International Living Reader,
Thailand's growing numbers of expat settlers certainly have plenty to smile about.
Enjoying an enviable and easy-going lifestyle, they've discovered a friendly land of breathtaking beaches and gilded temples that marries jasmine-scented exoticism with incredible affordability.
In Thailand, living costs match - and usually outdo - almost any popular Latin-American expat haunt. And they're way, way below any European sunshine destination.
Here you can:
- Dine well and still leave the table with change from $5.
- Rent gorgeous homes for less than $400 a month (sometimes a lot less).
- Purchase a studio condo in a seaside town for less than $20,000.
- Get a full check-up in a modern hospital by an American-trained doctor for less than $40.
… with many, many other astounding bargains to boot.
In Thailand, you can enjoy all the 21st century comforts of home on a tiny, tiny budget…
Although Thailand is a low-wage economy, we'd hesitate to call it a true Third World country.
Unless you insist on living in a really remote patch among the rice fields, there's no reason to abandon good dental care, large supermarkets, or reliable Internet access.
Whether it's CNN News or shelves stacked with Pepsi-Cola, you need rarely be far from home comforts.
In short, there's no need to give up a western-standard lifestyle… but there's no need to bother with mundane tasks like laundry either.
Why would you want to?
For $3, somebody will be more than pleased to take care of a whole load of it for you.
Switch Off the Washing Machine… and Have an Adventure!
Instead of loading up washing machines or cleaning windows like some sad, latter-day Cinderella, you could be enjoying a day at a beach on the Gulf of Thailand or beside the Andaman Sea.
Imagine snorkeling, diving, canoeing, and fishing in some of the cleanest waters on the planet.
The country has over 1,600 miles of spectacular coastline - and so many fabulous beaches and coves that you need never have exactly the same sun, sea, and sand experience twice.
Imagine snorkeling, diving, canoeing, and fishing in some of the cleanest waters on the planet.
Thrilling at the hypnotic seascapes of jungle limestone outcrops that bask in the blue-green ocean like nests of sleeping dragons. Lunching on tiger shrimp the size of a toddler's fist.
Alternatively you could be playing golf (green fees can be as low as $5!), playing tennis, or maybe getting rid of that niggly ache in your back with a traditional Thai massage - two hours of pampering for $8.
Yes - in Thailand - you can satisfy all your winter-time fantasies of white sands, coconut palms, superb seafood, and soothing spas. Yet the Land of Smiles isn't just another of the world's tropical beach escapes where westerners enjoy a hedonistic lifestyle at a lot less than the cost back home.
Thailand also offers more cultural experiences and adventures than most people could ever dream of. Another thing which draws visitors back time and again is its almost otherworldly allure.
This Year, you're invited to discover some of Thailand's most attractive properties.
Over four days this September and November 2007 and January 2008 Company Vauban will introduce you to the best of Thailand's main resorts - places where you can find your dream vacation home… enjoy an exotic, affordable overseas lifestyle… and potentially make a satisfactory return on your investment.
We're keeping this tour real estate focused, combining a few hours of general seminar sessions - covering legal issues, considerations for obtaining real estate financing, and a general overview of the current real estate market - as well as a tour that will take you out to see properties and developments…firsthand.
