There is a new breed of professional, ushered in by the digital revolution, the online entrepreneur emerged and has quickly become a force in the business world. In this short article, we take a look at some of the reasons why digital entrepreneurs love the Land of Smiles.
Low Cost of Living
When compared to any Western country, Thailand is much cheaper in every respect; rent, transportation, food, clothing and Internet costs are all very reasonable. This is one of the reasons why so many digital nomads choose the Land of Smiles to spend at least 6 months of the year, while some decide to relocate permanently. If you make a Western salary, you can enjoy a great life in Thailand and still manage to save money.
Long-Term Visas
You can enrol in a Thai language course and enjoy a 14-month Ed Visa in Thailand from a reputable Thai language academy, which not only gives you more than a year, but also gives you the Thai language skills that you need to enrich your life while living in the Royal Kingdom. Being able to converse with the locals really does give you an insight into Thai culture, as well as making day-to-day life more convenient. Outside of the tourist areas, few Thais actually speak English, and that can make life difficult; learning with a native Thai speaker gives you the correct pronunciation, plus you can also learn to read and write.
Tropical Climate
Why not escape the freezing winter at home and enjoy 4-5 months living in a tropical paradise? Many nomads do exactly that, arriving at the end of September and returning home in March or April to miss the winter completely. Of course, there are those who fall hopelessly in love with the colourful and welcoming Thai culture and end up staying all year, and who could blame them? Temperatures rarely drop below 20 °C in the Thai winter (November – February), and the climate varies from North to South.
Great IT Infrastructure
No digital nomad would contemplate basing themselves in a nation with inferior Internet connectivity; they demand high-speed net connectivity, and Thailand certainly has that, and at a very low cost! You can get unlimited data @ 4mbs on a mobile SIM for $30 a month, which you can hotspot to your laptop and work anywhere in the Kingdom. Of course, there is a range of packages to suit your needs, and with 4 major ISPs, you have provider options. You can ensure the best cybersecurity to protect your online data, which is essential for most digital entrepreneurs.
Colourful Thai Culture
Buddhism makes the Thai people kind and compassionate, and they are fun-loving folk who are always smiling; they enjoy the many colourful festivals throughout the year. Thailand is one of the safest countries in the world, and a great infrastructure makes travel easy to all regions of the country.
If you would like to enjoy a few months, or longer, in sunny Thailand, you can register for a Thai language course and obtain an Ed Visa, which can give you up to 14 months in this amazing country.
