Thai Chi Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 (edited) Hi I would like opinions on the best places to live in Thailand and why? The "Best" place to live in Thailand isnt even in your poll list Suggest you enlargen the scope of possibilities. Or, are you, only intrested in the places mentioned? When you add Buriram, I will vote Edited March 2, 2006 by Thai Chi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barryofthailand Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I think the two best places to live in Thailand are Pattaya, or Chiang Mai. Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jai Dee Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I think you need a few more options in your poll... If you can nominate other some other cities, then PM a mod with your additions, your poll could then be amended to include your additions. Unless of course, you want to continue to recieve some flak from other TV members who happen to live somewhere outside the constraints of your poll... ... bloody masochists...

When you add Buriram, I will vote Sorry about not putting Buriram, I don't seem to be able to add to the list. What is it like living in Buriram? If you included every place / city / town that TV members lived, it would run to a couple of pages I am sure. It maybe easier to ask "where do you live and why?" But I think that one was done recently. I think you need a few more options in your poll...

daleyboy Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 For me it has to be Bangkok, i have always loved city life, and Bangkok is great, always something to see and do, no matter what time of the day or night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKK90210 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 None of the above……The best place to live is outside the tourist areas When I come to Thailand I want to see the difference from my own town, try some local foods and meet local people. I want to have the unique experiences. But many places in Thailand have changed for the worst since tourism has been promoted. I don’t mean that it is not good to promote it, but it must be done in the correct way otherwise tourism will be a weapon that will destroy those unique places. I went to many tourist spots and wondered if I was in Thailand, there were a lot of guesthouses for Westerners, a lot of western style scenes, modern buildings and western restaurants or thai restaurants with western prices. I didn’t get any feeling of Thailand or Thai culture at all. It is very pity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrus Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Now, I had to go with Daleyboy on this one with your choices. I too love cities but, I love beaches more. There are places on Samui I love but, I Bkk has more about it. For me, not on your list, I love Mai Haad on the northern bit of Phan Ghan, really quiet with a little island just off the beach with a sandbank running to it. Maybe not the best place to live all the year though, maybe too quiet for some. I've never been North in all the years I've been coming to LOS, I always intend to but, time flies when smiling and laughing with friends young and old from all over the world with sound of the sea in the background. I'll make it eventually. redrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stravaig Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 The "best" place to live is where you can make friends, afford the lifestyle you want, and where there are all the facilities/amenities you want - whether that means peace and quiet or supermarkets, bars, restaurants, and leisure facilities. It's like asking where's the best place in the UK, Europe, or the US. Each to their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sriracha john Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 (edited) As the poll (at present) indicates, the North is the best place to go... the North has everything everyone wants....definitely... everyone is nice and friendly up North.. definitely... if you come to Thailand, you should go to the North... definitely.

ChiefBEM Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Hi I would like opinions on the best places to live in Thailand and why? Maybe name a couple of regions in addition to your specific cities? Like "Isaan." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sing_Sling Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 We have an apartment in Bangkok to stay while on business, but our house in Samui is an infinitely more more pleasant place to be - water views and 5 minutes to the beach. Simply beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
