About this listen

Welcome to Soul Thai: Moving and Living in Thailand. This episode explores Bangkok, Thailand's roaring pulse and dynamic capital, a city where ancient temples meet glowing skyscrapers and luxury malls stand beside bustling street markets. Discover Bangkok's endless opportunities for business, jobs, and networking, its world-class healthcare and international schools, and its status as the entertainment capital of Thailand with abundant nightlife, dining, arts, and shopping. We delve into the unique blend of traditional Thai culture and global cosmopolitan energy, highlighting its easy international travel and modern infrastructure. Learn about the pros, but also the cons, including a higher cost of living, legendary traffic congestion, and the potential for noise, crowds, and pollution to overwhelm. Whether you crave a city that never sleeps or are looking for a gateway to a slower pace, this episode helps you determine if Bangkok is the right fit for your journey to creating a peaceful, sustainable life abroad.
