I Lived in Bangkok AND Rayong — Which Is Better?

Bangkok or Rayong — which is better for living in Thailand? 🇹🇭 I've lived in both Bangkok and Rayong, and in this video I share my personal experience of living in these two very different parts of Thailand. Bangkok has the excitement, restaurants, nightlife, shopping and incredible public transportation. Rayong offers a much quieter lifestyle, beaches, more space, less traffic and a completely different pace of life. I'll compare the two based on cost of living, traffic, food, nightlife, beaches, shopping, expat life, transportation, golf and overall quality of life. And I'll tell you which one I would choose today. If you're considering moving to Thailand, retiring in Thailand, or simply wondering what it's really like to live outside Bangkok, this comparison should give you a better idea of what to expect.
