5Thailand

Pros for expats: Thailand is a highly affordable destination for those looking to decompress. However, your lifestyle will make a big difference on your budget. As expected, the cities are cheaper but less luxurious than the islands. Treat yo’ self but keep your finances in order.

Cons for expats: One of the most common complaints among Americans living in Thailand is the weather. A tropical paradise it may be, but Thailand is known for its humid heat and a prolonged rainy season that can put a damper on day-to-day life for longer visits.
