I am considering visiting Thailand, possible moving there. permanently, can someone tell me what I can expect?

Question

I would like to know what to expect I can do for work and where i can stay for a place to live. I would like to be near Bangkok, southern parts.

Answer 1

i think you can have a look first when u come 2 Thailand. i think it's possible to get a job but what kind of job which u want, i do not know.. you can live in BKK although coz however, BKK's a big city n you have many place to chose, yeah, for sure, good work to do 2.. have a good choice

Answer 2

I think you need to look into many things before moving here. As others have said come here and visit.  Need to find out what visa you can obtain to stay here long stay if qualified.  

Answer 3

my question 2 u is....CAN U SPEAK THE THAI LANGUAGE???

to be able to work there u have to know the area and ask around whats jobs are avaible b4 u plan to really live there.     I am planning to live in laos too but still doing my investigations on how to live there and first of all FIND A JOB FIRST!!  after that, WHERE TO LIVE!!  if u have FRIENDS THERE  that is GREAT!!  if not I WOULDNT RECOMMEND you living THERE W/OUT doing INVESTIGATIONS FIRST!!!

Answer 4

I think this is way too broad a question - - how would a total stranger to you know what you can do for work? what are your skills? where are you from? how old are you?  there are definitely issues of work permits and visas etc.. I would re-work this question if you want helpful answers... good luck

Answer 5

Without a college degree not much.  You might be able to teach english but they are tightening up on those requirements.  I suggest you hang around here for a while and read some of the answers that have been provided over the last year or two.  I also suggest you vist Thailand and stay by Khaosan Road and talk to the other visitors there and learn a little about Thailand.  Its a beautiful place to visit but not everyone can just move there and get a job.  You need a support network both inside and outside the country.  I hope you have earned millions and don't have to worry about money but if not your chances are pretty slim.
