With its ancient temples and pristine beaches, Thailand has earned a reputation for stunning beauty. A relatively low cost of living, fast and reliable internet, and an incredible array of tantalizing food, it's no wonder Thailand is a digital nomad hot spot.
Thai is the official language spoken in Thailand. However, many Thais speak at least basic English, particularly in the tourist centers.
Thailand is a tropical country, so expect hot and humid temperatures throughout the country. It's rainy season runs July to October, so be sure to do your research before booking a trip.
Cost of living in Thailand is a bargain, but as tourism continues to grow, costs have risen accordingly. However it is still among the best values for nomads. Monthly stays can be had for under $500 USD/mo.
Thailand is known for having some of the most delicious food around. You won't have to break the bank for a meal either. Local meals can be had for around $2-3 USD.
The official currency is the Thai Baht (THB). The baht is moderately strong against the US dollar, at roughly 34 THB to 1 USD. Increased tourism post-pandemic has begun driving up costs.
Internet access is fast, cheap, and widely available throughout Thailand. A Thai SIM card with unlimited data can be purchased for around $20 USD for a month.
