Living in Thailand exposes us to the reality that most things grown or produced in Thailand are exported. The Thai government is encouraging foreign investments in production and technology facilities to increase GDP with increased exports. However, Thailand is one of the preferred destinations for medical tourism. Medical treatment and plastic surgery industries produce continual growth.
The beautiful beaches, vibrant natural surroundings, and happy citizens attract diverse global tourists. Over 50 million people visit here for many sectors of tourism.
- A health medical tourism industry renders higher experienced, quality services and therapies for those of us who live here. Medical science advancements in hyperthermia treatment options move quickly in Thailand due to the environment, as well as, available investment capital.
- Eco or explorer tourists come here to experience the large percentage of global plant and animal life that flourish here. Take a whale-watching tour or trek into the jungle to find new flowers with your nose.
- Business tourists dash in and out for project management, trade, or customs negotiations.
- Thailand is the destination for fitness and martial arts fighters to train and prepare for fights. There are education visas specifically for a term of fight training. Or you could save the bruises and study the Thai language for a visa.

What would you think of a remote or hybrid work/life balance while living in Thailand? Digital nomads in Thailand are on the rise. Medical regulations from the government to protect tourists are just as important as mulling over visa and taxation thoughts for digital nomads. They realize this emerging market and want to be ready as AI is set to eliminate jobs by the millions.
Employment roles like customer service, data analysis, programming, graphic design, full-stack web developers, sales offices, accounting departments, and data entry divisions can trade cubicles for beach umbrellas.
