motyduke Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 In western countries we are living in apartment or houses with great surfaces ( more than 70 square meters...) i am asking myself how you deal with the little condos if you are not very rich ? I have seen so many condos from 25 sq meters to 45 sq meters ....not difficult for you expats to live in such a little apartment ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel1 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I am more happy in my 50 sq m. Condo here which has everything incl. A great view, 3 swimming pools, gym, sauna, security an big parking than I ever could be in a 100sq m aparment with nothing in europe and its less than half the price 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexRRR Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 200 sq m is the average Australian home ( mine is 260) it was a struggle in a 1 bedroom 40sq m condo for a year, cant be a hoarder in Thailand, i got on ok though and could do a through clean in 30 min so there are some benefits, but when the ex TGF came to stay over night or for the weekend i did feel crowded.

motyduke Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Thanks for your answers...i understand the benefits of a little surface ....i was smiling when you say " with a GF it was crowded ".... I suppose many of you are the majority of the time outside of yours apartment ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel1 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Yes, couldnt live here full days. One day is fine so now and then to have a day off of everything just play the music which btw you can here from everywhere in your condo but normally im always working or meeting up with friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apiwan Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 There's always a condo complex In the shopping centres. With a mock up unit. They are tiny. But always under or slightly over a million baht. In comparison. Small 1 bed knightsBridge London Sold before the agent took a pic £ 1.3 M. Move out better. 1 bed Teddington Sw £ 200.000. Move out east gotta be better. NO a 1 bed in Stratford £ 200.000 +++. East used to be cheap. But I think you pay a premium now. Because you get the feeling your in Islamabad without getting on a plane. 555+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motyduke Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Yes the difference of price is huge....and i am sure that the quality of life is better in thailand....but just wondering how it's hard to acclimate to such tnies condos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
