Summary

After nearly two months in Thailand, he finds it preferable to England and is considering staying at least a year. He praises £260 luxury housing, cheap Thai food, hotels, and tourist SIMs; tap water, heat, traffic, and surcharges frustrate him. He favors Thailand’s human service and Bangkok over Japan, weighing an education visa or $16,000–17,000 five-year Elite Visa.

Insight

Low costs and cultural fit are shifting him from temporary travel toward tentative long-term relocation.
