In this video I interview Jon, an expatriate with 18 years of experience living in the Land of Smiles, as he unveils the untold realities that many Thailandfocused YouTubers seldom discuss.
In this conversation, Jon sheds light on the sacrifices and challenges that come with living in Thailand as a foreigner. Contrary to the idyllic portrayals often seen on social media, Jon delves into the flip side, exploring the difficulties of becoming a permanent resident in Thailand as well as the challenges expats encounter when seeking meaningful employment and professional growth.
If you're considering the move to Thailand or are simply curious about the unspoken truths of expat life, this interview with Jon is a mustwatch. Brace yourself for an honest and insightful conversation that goes beyond the glossy surface, providing a realistic perspective on the sacrifices and challenges faced by expats in Thailand. #movingtothailand #expatlifeinthailand #thairishtimes
