I get quite a few emails from digital nomads or aspiring nomads asking me:<\/p>\n

\n

Where’s the best place to stay in Thailand and what’s the best way to generate an online income?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I’ve done some research and collected data for digital nomads who are thinking about coming to Thailand, it’s a quick breakdown of what it costs to be a digital nomad in Thailand based on current data.<\/p>\n

I’ve focused on Bangkok, Phuket and Chiang Mai<\/a>. It’s my first go at an infographic so I hope you all enjoy it.<\/p>\n

\"Digital<\/p>\n

Where would you stay?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I was actually quite surprised that Phuket was a cheaper option than Bangkok for nomads. But serviced apartment in Bangkok tend to cost a lot more on average, and when you factor in the amount of spending you can do in one month in Bangkok compared to Phuket, it’s can get pretty big.<\/p>\n

For example, it’s a lot cheaper to rent a month-to-month room in a quieter part of Phuket and hardly spend money (as there’s nothing there), opposed to living in Bangkok where there’s a mall on every corner, hundreds of bars and thousands of restaurants.<\/p>\n

The nomad cost of living is based on people who are continually moving from place to pace, while the expats costs are averaged over 3 months or more living.<\/p>\n

If you were a digital nomad in Thailand, which city would you pick? As much as I prefer Bangkok, I think for people who are not earning more than $800 per month online, Chiang Mai would probably be your best bet as the cost of living can be a lot lower if you be frugal. It also has the largest digital nomad community in Thailand and would be a great way to make friends and perhaps find more work.<\/p>\n

But as since as you start making that money, Bangkok’s my #1.<\/p>\n

Oh and obviously no article about digital nomads in Thailand would be complete without me making reference to my guide that shows anyone how to become an online freelancer in Asia.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
